Improvements to the habit detail screen: you can now see your total completed days alongside your best streak, plus your overall completion rate since the habit started — for a fuller picture of your progress.

In the Insights screen, the Streaks card now also shows the total completed days for each habit — giving you a fuller view of your history.

The event detail screen now shows which calendar the event came from, so you always know its source at a glance.
