Mosaic

Mosaic turns your habits into something you actually want to look at. Every day you complete a habit, you paint one tile. Miss a day, and it stays blank — a mosaic that's a mirror of what you actually did, not what you meant to do. Keep it up, and watch a real, physical-feeling piece of art fill in: faceted gems, hand-cut stained glass, polished marble, glowing neon, retro pixel art, and soft watercolor washes — seven materials, five color palettes, and four layouts (grid, hex-packed, concentric year-rings, or a golden-ratio spiral), all combining differently for every habit. YOUR MOSAIC, ALL TOGETHER Beyond individual habits, "Your Mosaic" brings your check-ins into collections you can keep. Reveal a picture one tile at a time over 30 distinct days, spread across weeks or months. Missing a day does not take away earned tiles. Choose from bundled artwork for free, or use your own photo with Mosaic Plus. Keep finished collections and start another. BUILT-IN MOTIVATION, NOT GUILT See the effort you have already put in, with habit history, calendar corrections, weekly check-ins, and weekly-goal progress. Mosaic Plus adds longer progress comparisons. Return when you can — your earned artwork stays yours. SHARE WHAT YOU BUILT Export your mosaic as a share card, a 9:16 story, a square post, an animated video, or a full wallpaper for your Lock Screen — built for the moment you actually want to show someone what a month of showing up looks like. At the end of the year, get a "Wrapped"-style annual poster of your whole year in tiles. EVERYWHERE YOU ARE Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets so you can complete today's tile without opening the app A full Apple Watch app to check off habits from your wrist Siri and Shortcuts support to log habits by voice Gentle local reminders — set per habit, never spammy MADE FOR REAL LIFE Set habits to daily, a number of times per week, or specific days. Track streaks, best streaks, and total completions. Archive and restore habits, and create an optional backup file to save where you choose. Habits live on your device — Mosaic doesn't require an account or track you. FREE TO START Track up to three active habits, choose from bundled artwork, and share standard exports for free. Mosaic Plus unlocks unlimited active habits, every palette and material, personal-photo collections, and deeper progress with a one-time lifetime purchase or an auto-renewing monthly subscription. Existing ownership of standalone seasonal packs remains honored. Your habits, as a masterpiece. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
