## What is Opening Bell?

Your habits trade like stocks. Log one and the price rises, miss it and it falls, and every Sunday the market posts earnings on your week.

Most habit trackers give you a streak and take it away. This one gives you a price, and it pays most for coming back.

HOW IT WORKS
1. List your habits as tickers. $GYM, $ZZZ, $BOOK, or your own. Each one opens at $10.
2. Log them as you go. A logged day lifts the price, a missed day takes 0.5% at the close.
3. Sunday, the market posts earnings. Your week is scored against the guidance you set, ticker by ticker.

WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
• Comebacks pay double. After two misses, your next session moves the price twice as far.
• Three misses in a row halts the ticker until Monday. Not a guilt trip, a trading halt, with a screen that asks what got in the way.
• Arm a circuit breaker and a third miss holds the price instead of halting it, so the week keeps trading.
• Guidance is a promise you make to yourself, not a target the app picks. Beat it, meet it, or miss it.

THE EARNINGS CALL
Every week closes with a call. Put your own call on the record before the numbers print, read the print ticker by ticker, take the desk's questions, and set guidance for next week. It plays as a pixel-art trading floor, or as plain type if you prefer. Your answers stay on your device.

THE TAPE
• One index for your whole fund, weighted the way you set.
• A page for every habit: the tape as a line or as candles, a rating from this week's numbers, and your streaks.
• An archive of past calls.
• A home screen widget with your price, today's move and the tape.
• Light and dark, following your system or held either way.

SHAREHOLDERS AND EXCHANGES
• Send a link and a friend becomes a shareholder. They see your fund and the listings you leave open. Mark a listing private and it never leaves your book.
• Open an exchange: a group of funds quoted as one index. The group chat, with a price on it. Joining is free for everyone.
• The Street shows how everyone holding a habit is doing, in aggregate only, and only once ten or more people hold it. Opt out in Settings.
• Block or report anyone. Blocking is silent.

YOUR ACCOUNT
• No sign-up to start. Sign in with Apple or Google to keep your fund and carry it to a new phone.
• Export your data any time. Delete your account and history from Settings.
• No ads, ever.

OPENING BELL PLUS
The free plan tracks 5 habits, opens the last 12 weeks of calls, gets 1 circuit breaker a month, and creates 1 exchange. Plus is optional and adds:
• Up to 30 habits
• Every week in the archive
• Circuit breakers without a monthly cap
• Up to 10 exchanges you create
• The Lock Screen ticker: a Live Activity on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, and the medium home screen widget
• Your statement as a CSV export
• Trading floor palettes: Terminal, Paper and Blue chip, light or dark
• An analyst note written by AI each week, only if you allow it

Plus is $2.99 a month, or $19.99 a year with a 7-day free trial. Prices are in US dollars and vary by country.

Payment is charged to your Apple ID when you confirm the purchase, or when the free trial ends. The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and renewal is charged within the 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel any time in Settings, Opening Bell Plus, Manage subscription, or in your App Store account settings.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.0.1 — 2026-09-26

Early birds, this one's for you.

• Pre-market trading. Log before the opening bell and your ticker starts moving right away, not flat until the open. The chart marks the bell and shows the pre-market move.
• Fixed: a stock you logged before the open showed 0.0% when you dragged across the chart. Scrubbing now shows the real day change.
• Scrubbing the chart tells you when you're in pre-market or after hours.
• Undo a log. Tapped the wrong habit? Tap it again in Check-in, or use Undo on the ticker page, any time before midnight. Your price, streak and misses go back exactly as they were.
• The opening bell alert now shows your own full-credit cutoff time, not a fixed 6 PM.
• You can report an analyst note that doesn't look right.
• Smoother Plus purchases and restores, plus small fixes throughout.

### 1.0 — 2026-09-22

No release notes.
