## What is HelpO?

A missed week shouldn't erase a month of showing up.

HelpO won't let it. Mark a rest day and your streak bridges the gap instead of breaking. Slip, and your best run is still yours. Events, habits, and lists — one quiet place built on that promise.

REST IS PART OF THE PLAN
• Rest days are neutral: they never extend a streak, and they never break one.
• Strength, a gentle measure of consistency, dips softly when you miss — it recovers, and a missed day never resets it to zero.
• A habit set for Mon/Wed/Fri isn't broken by Tuesday. An unscheduled day never breaks a run.
• Going away? Rest a habit for the whole trip (Pro) — the pause stays protected, even after you're back.

THE SHAPE OF YOUR DAY
• A calm vertical timeline with a live "now" line — your schedule as it really is, not a wall of boxes.
• Multi-day events appear on every day they span. A week at a glance, and a month view that quietly surfaces your busier days.
• Two-way Apple Calendar sync (Pro): edits travel in both directions, and you choose which calendars to import.
• A morning briefing with today's agenda, at the hour you pick.

HABITS, AT YOUR PACE
• Set a goal for a few times a week, not every day — the cadence bends to your life.
• A private note and mood on every check-in — a small, mindful journal, if you want one.
• Progress rings, daily targets, an honest streak, and your best run, always kept.
• Make a habit measurable, like glasses of water a day — or anchor one to an event (Pro).

LISTS FOR EVERYTHING ELSE
• Checklists with sub-items, pinning, and progress bars — groceries, projects, everyday tasks and to-dos.
• A due date, a date range, or a repeat — and a reminder on a single task, not just the list.
• Link a list to an event and it resets each time that event returns — a packing list, fresh for every trip.
• Start from ready-made templates or save your own. Deleted lists can be recovered.

YOUR PROGRESS
• Statistics (Pro) — habits, events and lists, by week, month or year.

WITH YOU EVERYWHERE
• An Apple Watch app that works offline and syncs the moment you're back.
• Siri, Spotlight, the Action Button, Control Center, and home- and lock-screen widgets.
• Search everything, and a roomier layout on iPad and Mac.
• 20 languages, switched live — no restart.

SOFTLY ORGANIZED
Soft palettes, rounded corners, spring animations — an aesthetic meant to lower your shoulders, not raise your pulse.

PRIVACY
Your data lives in your own iCloud account — never sold, never used to train AI. Anonymous analytics help improve the app — opt out anytime in Settings.

FREE & PRO
Free covers a full daily routine: a few events each day, and a few habits and lists to keep — with measurable habits, the Watch app, widgets, Siri, rest days, and the morning briefing. Pro lifts those limits and adds Statistics, custom categories, event-anchored habits, trip-long rest, two-way Apple Calendar sync, and iCloud sync across your devices. Cancel anytime.

Show up when you can. Rest when you can't. HelpO keeps your place.
