NoTV Tracker
Read full descriptionHide full description
Turn "I don't watch TV" into a tracker — half pride, half self-deprecation. - Day counter: a big number for the days since the last time you turned on the TV - Home-screen widget (small): the live day count, on your home screen, with the same pink-to-purple gradient - Worth simulator: convert the saved hours into ¥1,500/hr wages and a daily-DCA projection across S&P 500 / Nikkei 225 / Bitcoin / All-Country Index. Daily viewing assumption goes 30 min to 24 hours in 15-min steps, displayed as "1 hr 30 min". Edit it from the Settings tab - NHK fees you didn't pay: pick Terrestrial (¥1,100/mo) or Satellite (¥1,950/mo) and the cumulative savings render daily, prorated by month - Tempting-day calendar & alerts: two years of high-risk broadcasts (Kouhaku, Hakone Ekiden, NYE specials, 24-Hour TV, Olympics / World Cup, music specials) preloaded with a risk badge each, plus an optional 9 AM local-time notification on the day of each event - Slip log: when you do end up watching, log how long (just 5 min / about 30 min / 1 hr or more) and why (news / sports / family had it on / disaster info / variety or drama / no reason), then choose a full reset or an exception day that keeps your streak. Stored on your device only — never sent anywhere - Milestones: five tiers of self-deprecating achievements (7 / 30 / 100 / 365 / 1000 days) - Comment of the day: a self-deprecating one-liner that matches your day count. Tap "One more" for another line (written for each of the 16 languages) Dark theme only. Available in 16 languages — Japanese, English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil), Korean, German, French, Hindi, Indonesian, Russian, Italian, Turkish, Thai and Vietnamese. Follows the device language, or pick one per app in Settings > NoTV Tracker > Language. Pricing: the app is free. There are no in-app purchases and no subscriptions. It is supported entirely by Pangle ads: a banner, an app-open ad (at most once every 30 minutes) and an optional rewarded video for the slip log's "indulgence" — no interstitials.
