Build a reflection habit
Motley is a Mac app that shows weeks of your life on the desktop.
Each week is shown as a box on a chart. A box can be filled with interesting events. An event has a colour and notes.
Think of it as filling a travel map of where you've been, but for your experiences.

FAQ
What do colours mean?
Anything you want. In the essence, you set colours to make events recognisiable and more personal. Colours can help you distinguish events or, on the other hand, group them and create some relation. For example, you can build a mood tracking calendar, where a colour states your mood.

How to share?

Is this Life Calendar?
Yes, the initial idea was inspired by Tim Urban's post.
Why subscription and unlimited trial?
Subscription is my option to sustain as a product, since I'm a sole developer. The app is priced fairly: yearly subscription goes together with an yearly major update. Think of it as you would get “Motley 2” at the end of a year.
Notice that I won't persuade you to subscribe from the start or limit you with a trial period — the app is free to download and you can use it without any limitations, but for continued use I ask you to purchase a subscription.
