Asked often aboutusing dayLime.

How do I start counting?

Open the D-Day settings of a slot, give it a name and a start date, then take a photo. The stamp on that first photo already shows your day count.

Can I change the stamp shape?

Yes. Choose a label shape, color, font and photo ratio, and the stamp changes with them. The shapes are plain text with no frame, a verify badge, a flip counter, camera brackets, a seal stamp and a sticky note.

Which photo ratios can I shoot in?

1:1, 4:5, 3:4 and 9:16. The default is 4:5.

How many slots are free?

Two D-day slots are free forever, along with the clock stamp. dayLime has five D-day slots in all, and the other three are paid.

Can I add a date to a photo I already took?

No. dayLime adds the date only when the shutter is pressed, so each photo is a real-time record and nothing is backdated. Photos already in your gallery are left as they are.

Who can see my shared record?

Only people who have your link. The address is a random 10-character code. For each share you choose original photos, blurred photos or numbers only, and you can turn the link off at any time.

Is dayLime free?

Yes. It is free to download and use, and a banner ad shows on the camera screen. Slots beyond the free ones are a one-time in-app purchase, not a subscription.
