Madobe

What is Madobe?

Japan’s year was traditionally divided into 72 microseasons, each lasting about five days and marked by subtle changes in nature. Madobe brings them to your iPhone as a daily widget. Each day, your home screen shows a handcrafted miniature scene that changes with the real calendar. Explore seasonal descriptions, foods, and cultural events in miniature, ukiyo-e, or realistic styles. Supports English and Japanese. Free to download, with premium unlocking all 72 seasons and all styles.
