Using Sajilo
Settings
Every Sajilo setting, tab by tab: appearance, language and numerals, the menu bar date, modules, reminders, privacy and backups.
Open Settings with the gear at the top right of Sajilo, or from the tray icon’s right-click menu (Settings…) on Windows and macOS. Settings has four tabs.
Display#
Appearance#
- Theme: System, Light or Dark.
- Accent colour: the colour of buttons, today’s date and highlights across Sajilo (all nine). Marigold (सयपत्री, the gold it starts with), Himalayan blue, Chandi (चाँदी, silver, for no colour at all), Phewa, Ilam tea, Makhamali (मखमली), Kamal (कमल, lotus pink), Dhaka red or Rudraksha. Each works in light and dark.
- Text size: Small, Default or Large.
- Language: नेपाली or English.
- Numerals: Devanagari (२०८३) or Latin (2083).
Menu bar#
How the date looks in your menu bar or tray:
- Tray icon (Windows and Linux): the Nepal flag (the default) or the Sajilo icon.
- Format: Short, Full (the default), With flag, Gregorian, Numeric, or Custom…, where you choose whether to show the Nepal flag and the BS year.
- Show time: adds the time in Nepal.
On Windows the tray shows only the icon, and the date appears when you hover over it. Some Linux desktops, like KDE and Cinnamon, also show only the icon; Ubuntu shows the date beside it.
Mini view#
Second line shows picks what the mini view strip shows under the date: the next festival or holiday, weather, the NEPSE index, the dollar rate, or the radio while it plays. You can also click that line on the strip to change it.
Startup#
- Launch at login: start Sajilo with your computer. It’s on after installing; once you turn it off, it stays off.
- Show Dock icon (macOS only): show Sajilo in the Dock as well.
Modules#
Switch parts of Sajilo on or off: Weather, Forex, News, Bazar, Rashifal, Radio, Second Clock, Keeper and Routine. A switched-off module disappears from the tabs and the Today screen, and stops its reminders and background updates.
Some modules have their own options here:
- Weather › Home place: the place shown on Today, from the places you’ve pinned on the Weather screen.
- Forex › Currencies on the card: your favourite currencies.
System#
Updates#
Check for updates, and install one when it’s ready. See Updating Sajilo.
Reminders#
How reminders appear (Card or Notification), and switches for Public holiday tomorrow, Festival tomorrow, IPO closing day and SIP payment due. See Reminders.
Privacy#
Help improve Sajilo sends one anonymous count a day: the app version (and the one before it), your operating system and processor type, a random number that isn’t tied to you, how many times each screen and a few features were used, and your language, digits and which modules are on. It never includes anything you type, search, read, play or save. Turn it off here, and nothing is counted at all. The privacy policy lists exactly what’s sent.
Backup#
- Export Sajilo data… saves one file with your day plans, Keeper (including photos) and settings.
- Import Sajilo data… restores that file, for example on a new computer.
Importing replaces all of Sajilo’s data on this computer with what’s in the file. News, prices and weather aren’t in backups; they’re fetched again.
