About this app

Yesterly turns today's date into a window onto a single year of your life.

Pick the year that meant the most to you. Maybe you were sixteen. Maybe you were thirty-four with a small kid in your kitchen. Whatever year it is, Yesterly opens that calendar back up, one card at a time.

Each morning you get a new page. A different theme every day of the week:

Monday. The song that was at number one that week.
Tuesday. The film at the top of the box office.
Wednesday. A cultural event from somewhere in your country.
Thursday. A quiet pointer back or forward through your year.
Friday. What was on television that night.
Saturday. A weekend texture from the season.
Sunday. An immersive recap of the week, written as a literary essay you can sink into.

The product is built around a single principle: data is the protagonist, AI is the chorus. Every fact comes from a real database of historical music charts, box-office figures, news, and weather. The narrative around them is written in a calm, observational voice that borrows from literary nonfiction rather than greeting-card sentiment.

WHAT YOU GET ON THE FREE TIER (POSTCARD)

One year of your choosing. One card a day. The song, the headline, the cinema lead, the weather where you lived. Quiet enough to sit with over coffee, specific enough to land.

WHAT YOU GET ON MAGAZINE

A monthly subscription that unlocks the full picture of your year. Three cultural moments a day, the cost of basics that month, and the long-form Sunday recap that puts you back inside the texture of the week. The price is shown inside the app at the moment of purchase, in your local currency. The subscription auto-renews monthly through your Google Account until cancelled. Cancel anytime from Google Play Subscriptions; the subscription stays active through the end of the period you have already paid for.

WHAT YESTERLY DOES NOT DO

No ads. No tracking. No social network. No streak counters. No notifications that demand your attention. A reading on your morning kitchen counter. Nothing more.

Yesterly currently covers United States data from 1970 to today. More countries arrive after launch.
