## What is Truly Simple Word Tracker?

Truly Simple Word Tracker is a lightweight app that does the basics and absolutely nothing more. No fluff, no complicated menus, and no bloat.

Features:

• Set a goal: Choose a daily word count target for your current project, essay, or manuscript.
• Log your words: Open the app and quickly enter the number of words you wrote today.
• Maintain your streak: Hit your goal to keep your daily streak alive. Missed a scheduled day? Your streak resets to keep you accountable.
• View your stats: Check your writing history and longest streaks in a clean but info-rich dashboard.
• Sync your data: Sync your writing data automatically and privately via iCloud across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
• Home Screen widgets: View your progress at a glance with clean iOS and macOS Home Screen widgets.
• Share your stats: Share your writing stats and visual charts directly from the dashboard.
• Customize your experience: Adapt to your environment with manual controls for Light, Dark, or System color themes.
• Accessibility: Navigate easily with fully accessible VoiceOver support, extra-large dynamic type compatibility, and comfortable 44-point touch targets.
 • Own your software: Use the core features entirely for free, or unlock the Pro version for a one-time, lifetime fee. No subscriptions, ever.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.0.1 — 2026-05-22

• New Settings Menu: Added a dedicated settings page featuring a manual Light, Dark, and System theme override.
• Refined Canvas Colors: Rebuilt our color palette to use our signature warm, paper-like off-whites and dark grays, and eliminated a bug that caused glowing visual halos in Dark Mode.
• Easier Tapping: Increased the size of all interactive elements (like the Day Picker and filter buttons) to a minimum of 44x44 points, making them significantly easier to hit.
• VoiceOver & Dynamic Type: We've made massive improvements for accessibility. We added comprehensive VoiceOver labels to all icons and schedule dots. The Stats dashboard will now also automatically stack beautifully for users who enable extra-large text.
