Life isn't one book — it's chapter after chapter.
Chapters counts down to the days you're looking forward to. When the day is over, you add the photos and what you felt, and it becomes a memory kept for good — everything ahead and everything already lived, on one life timeline.
■ The life of a chapter
Looking forward — create a chapter, set a date, and the card on your home screen counts down.
It's today — on the day itself, the card turns into "It's finally here!"
Memory — add photos and thoughts. The chapter doesn't disappear; it stays on your timeline.
■ Days worth counting
Trips, concerts, birthdays and anniversaries, graduations, weddings, moving house, a new job, exam results, a due date — any day you catch yourself counting toward.
■ Count down to the days that matter
・A title and a date is all you need to start
・Add an end date and a multi-day trip shows "Day 3 · 5 days"
・All 7 paper-craft card styles are free: Tape, Paper, Ticket Stub, Polaroid, Minimal, Boarding Pass, Train Ticket
・8 accent colours, 7 icons — or type any emoji you like as the icon
・A cover photo that shows up on the card and on your widget
・Repeating chapters — weekly, monthly, yearly. Birthdays roll to the next one automatically; the one that passed settles into your memories
・Reminders 7 days before, 1 day before, and around 9am on the day
■ When the day ends, the memory begins
・Add photos, write down how the day felt, tag it
・Photos are linked from your gallery by default and take no space — or save a copy into Chapters, so the memory survives even if you delete the original
・The timeline puts what's counting down and what's already happened on one line
・The memory wall gathers every photo you've kept into one scrolling grid
■ Home screen widgets
・2×2 countdown — days left on your nearest chapter (free)
・4×2 today — the day arrives on your home screen (Pro)
・4×4 upcoming — the list of what's next (Pro)
The 2×2 countdown is free forever. The larger sizes are a Chapters Pro feature.

■ Year and month in review (Pro)
Chapters turns your year into a look back: the moments you completed, the photos you kept, the words you wrote, what you looked forward to most, your busiest month, and the day you waited longest for. Or go back a month at a time.
