## What is Sown?

Sown is a mindful habit tracker that helps you build the life you want — one good day at a time.                        

Organise your habits into what matters most. Must-dos are your non-negotiables — the basics like sleep, hygiene and     
responsibilities. Nice-to-dos are the hobbies and interests that make life fulfilling. Don't-dos are the habits you're ready to quit.

Complete a must-do by swiping to strikethrough — just like crossing it off in a notebook. Finish all your must-dos
without slipping on a don't-do and you earn a good day. Chain good days together to build your streak.

  KEY FEATURES

  • Swipe to complete — satisfying gesture-based completion with haptic feedback
  • Good day streaks — all must-dos done + no slips = a good day
  • Habit groups — combine related habits (e.g. Gym, Run, Swim under "Exercise") and complete any one to satisfy the group
  • Don't-do tracking — track the habits you want to quit and mark slips honestly
  • Screen Time blocking — link don't-do habits to specific apps and block them when you hit your limit
  • Focus mode — get intercepted when opening a blocked app and redirected to something productive
  • HealthKit integration — auto-complete habits based on steps, exercise minutes, distance, sleep and more
  • Smart reminders — context-aware notifications based on your schedule and time of day
  • Journaling — write end-of-day reflections and rate your fulfilment
  • Photo tracking — attach photos to hobby habits and see your progress in a monthly collage
  • Monthly calendar — see your completed habits, good days and notes at a glance
  • iCloud sync — keep everything in sync across all your devices
  • Today's tasks — add one-off tasks alongside your daily habits

Sown is built around a simple idea: be honest with yourself. No streaks you didn't earn. No credit for habits you didn't
do. Just real progress, tracked beautifully in a calm, paper-notebook aesthetic.

Some days you get everything done. Some days you won't. Both are fine.


## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-04-23

A new dedicated Block tab — set your blocking schedule, pick your apps, and see today's failure-blocks all in one place.                                                                         
                                      
Home screen widget — see today's habits at a glance, with groups bundled neatly into single items.                                                                                               
                                                                                                                                                                                                   
"?" buttons everywhere — tap one for a plain-English explanation of what that setting or screen actually does. No more guessing.                                                                 
                                                                                                                                                                                                   
Habits in the list now show as bullet points instead of empty squares, and the swipe-to-complete area is bigger — completing a habit feels more satisfying and is harder to miss.                
                                                                                                                                                                                                   
Faster launches, fewer hangs, and a pile of bug fixes — including a long-standing one where deleted Don't-Do habits could keep blocking apps the next morning.
