BetterUs: Habits for Couples is a couples habit tracker for shared habits, shared goals, and streaks - designed for partners who want to build routines together (without guilt or pressure).

BUILD HABITS AS A TEAM (OR SOLO)
- Shared habits: you both complete it separately; the shared streak counts when both of you do it
- Together habits: you do it at the same time; either partner can mark it done

Create couple goals like saving for a trip, visiting new countries, reading more books, or building a fitness routine. Track progress together and celebrate milestones along the way.

REMINDERS + WEEKLY SUMMARY
Stay consistent with daily reminders, optional streak warnings, and a weekly summary. You can control which notifications you want.

GENTLE NUDGES
Send a quick, positive nudge when your partner could use encouragement - friendly support, not control.

• Activity tab: a shared feed of the last 7 days - habits you completed, things you did together and nudges you sent each other. Tap any row to jump straight to the habit.
• Home screen widgets: the activity rings have been redesigned with clear markers for you, your partner and your shared progress. Android also gets a new 2x2 progress widget, and widgets refresh more reliably.
• Reworked stats: progress rings, a cleaner yearly heatmap, a day-by-day breakdown, completion rate, best streak and weekly insights.
• Icon picker: 240 icons grouped into categories (Health, Activity, Home, Us, Mind, Finance, Milestones) with color coding, filter chips, and it now opens on the icon you're already using.
• A fresh welcome screen and a branded splash screen that follows your light or dark theme.
• Solo mode: you can dismiss the partner setup screen and use Better Us on your own - stats adapt to match.
• Accessibility: WCAG AA contrast, proper reduced-motion support and better screen reader labels.
• Offline: clear "needs internet" messages instead of silent failures.
