## What is Cues?

Bars that drain. Top them up before they hit zero.

Most people don't notice they're thirsty until they're already dehydrated. Or that they haven't eaten in eight hours. Or that they haven't moved since yesterday. Cues turns the daily needs you forget about into bars that drain over time — so you see them before they hit empty, not after.

WHO IT'S FOR

If you reach mid-afternoon and realize you haven't eaten, had water, or stood up. If "just remember" has never worked for you. If habit-streak apps only ever made you feel further behind. Cues is for busy people, parents, students, and anyone with ADHD or executive-function challenges who loses track of basic needs until they're already running on empty.

THE LOOP

Each cue is a bar. The bar drains at its own pace — water in 4 hours, food in 6, sleep over 17, movement every 8, social every couple of days. When a bar gets low, Cues nudges you. You tap to top it up. That's the whole game.

No streaks to break. No shame. No guilt. Just the bars.

SEVEN DEFAULTS

Ready on first launch:

• Water
• Food
• Sleep
• Movement
• Meds
• Bathroom
• Social

PRESETS

Drop in eight more cues without designing them yourself:

Sensory Break · Fresh Air · Mood Check · Screen Break · Temperature · Fun · Sunlight · Hygiene

CUSTOM CUES

Design your own bars with the decay timing and trigger that fits your life.

AUTO-REFILL FROM APPLE HEALTH

Cues reads sleep, movement, sunlight, food, and water from Apple Health. When the data lands there, the right bar tops itself up automatically. No double-entry — log a glass of water in any Health-aware app and Cues picks it up.

QUIET, PRIVATE, ON-DEVICE

— No accounts. No login. No servers.
— No telemetry. No ads. No tracking.
— Health data stays on your phone.
— Notifications come at quiet times, not as a flood — quiet hours by default.

APPLE WATCH

Cues runs on Apple Watch as a companion. Glance at your wrist, see what's running low, top it up from the watch face.

WIDGETS

Lock screen and home screen widgets show your three most-urgent bars at a glance.

FREE

Everything in Cues is free. No subscription, no IAP, no trial countdown — just the app.

COMMON QUESTIONS

What is Cues? Cues is a free self-care tracker for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. Each basic need — water, food, sleep, movement, meds, bathroom, social — is a bar that drains over time, and you top it up when you act on it.

How is it different from a habit tracker? Habit trackers reward streaks and punish gaps. Cues has no streaks and nothing to break: a bar that hit zero yesterday is just a bar you fill today.

Does it need an account or a connection? No. Cues works offline, with no account, no servers and no tracking. Health data stays on your device.

Is it really free? Yes — no subscription, no in-app purchases, no trial.

Do I need an Apple Watch? No. The watch app and widgets are optional; the iPhone app on its own is complete.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.11 — 2026-10-06

Cues on iPad and iPhone Duo

• Cues is now one app for iPhone and iPad — the same bars, the same history, the same reminders.
• iPad gets a real layout: sidebar navigation, cards in columns, and details that open beside your bars instead of covering them.
• Trends and Library use the extra room too, with the list next to its chart.
• Fold-aware layouts for iPhone Duo, with cue details beside your bars and editing drafts preserved when you close the device.

### 1.10 — 2026-08-13

New in this update

• More reliable reminders when you have lots of cues active — important ones no longer get crowded out.
• Stability and performance improvements.

### 1.09 — 2026-06-27

New in this update

• One-tap top-ups — fill a cue's bar straight from the dashboard, no extra steps.
• Water and food fill in a single tap; no need to set an amount first.
• Tap a reminder to clear it.
• Apple Watch complication — your most urgent cue, right on the watch face.
• More reliable Apple Health sync, with accessibility and stability improvements.

### 1.08 — 2026-06-07

New in this update

• Refill from anywhere — tap a cue on your Home Screen widget, ask Siri ("log water in Cues"), or add a Control Center button, all without opening the app.
• Lock Screen Live Activity — when a cue runs critically low it appears on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, with a one-tap "Did it."
• Smarter meds reminders — set several fixed times a day for a cue, and let the important ones break through Focus and Do Not Disturb.
• Stability improvements, including a background crash fix.

### 1.07 — 2026-06-06

New in this update

• Refill from your widget. Tap any cue right on your Home Screen widget to top it up — without opening the app.
• Multiple daily reminders per cue. For things on a fixed schedule like medication, set several reminder times (say, a morning and an evening dose) instead of just one.
