Can't remember name of an old Android app... help! (lemmy.world)

Hey all, I used to use a to do app and can't remember name, it was very distinct though, please help!

visual aesthetic was of an IRL open paper journal (distinct touch: out had a coffee stain on upper corner of the paper)
extremely simple, text input on lines and a checkbox to complete (animation of pen crossing by hand would play IIRC)
only option besides complete/delete was to move to "tomorrow". Then when you flipped the page (animation) you'd see the next day's tasks.
only looked at today and tomorrow in favor of simplicity
For some reason, I want to think it was just called "today" or "tomorrow".

Any ideas?

Could it be Do It Tomorrow?

Wow! Yes! It is do it tomorrow, thank you.

This is an amazing small demonstration of lemmy being comparable to old Reddit benefits in practice! I didn't think we were big enough yet where I could ask an obscure question like this and actually see the answer so quickly (or at all). Amazing!

So yes, I was thinking of the app displayed on their website. The current play store listing currently may be a knockoff from different group or a huge aesthetic change? Anyways I needed to reference the way it functioned so this is perfect - maybe I can find an old .apk floating around. Thanks again!

Site is https://www.tomorrow.do/ for anyone curious. It's definitely a dated approach, but the simplicity feels so welcome in the current ecosystem of bloated productivity apps that all want to shift into enterprise SaaS and add dozens of overly complex features and clouded visuals that just lead to decision paralysis for many.

If you had it installed it from the play store you could theoretically get the name from there. Here's a Google support page for how to look up apps you've previously installed:
