#### See your whole year at a glance

Daylo is a habit tracker with a calendar you can read at a glance. Tick off what you did today and the year fills in with colour, so you can see a streak forming or a month you let slip without reading a single number.

Your data stays on your device. Daylo has no account, and no server stores your habits or the days you marked. One thing leaves your device unless you turn it off: an anonymous daily check-in that tells us the app is still in use. It carries a random number, the app version, your system, how it was installed and the date, and nothing else. The app tells you the first time it opens, and you can turn it off from Settings at any time. You can export a backup whenever you want and import it on another machine.

Moving from the .deb or the AppImage? The snap keeps its data in a place of its own, so it opens empty at first. Use Export Data in the copy you had, then Import Data here.

## Enable snaps on Arch Linux and install Daylo

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

On Arch Linux, snap can be installed from the [Arch User Repository (AUR).](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/snapd/)
The [manual build process](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_packages) is the Arch-supported
install method for AUR packages, and you’ll need the [prerequisites](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Prerequisites)
installed before you can install any AUR package. You can then install snap with the following:

```
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/snapd.git
cd snapd
makepkg -si
```

Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
```

If [AppArmor](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AppArmor) is enabled in your system, enable the service which loads AppArmor profiles for snaps:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor.service
```

To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`:

```
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
