Progress Grid Tracker

**GoalGrid — Visual Progress Tracker** Turn any goal into a grid you can watch fill in. Learning a language, reading a book, renovating a home — break it into items, mark them off, and watch your progress take shape square by square. Every project gets its own color-coded grid, a running streak counter, and space for notes so you can capture context behind each milestone, not just a checkmark. **Built for privacy, not surveillance.** GoalGrid stores everything locally on your device using SwiftData. Nothing is uploaded, synced to a server, or shared with anyone — including us. There are no accounts, no sign-ups, and no tracking of any kind. **Works completely offline.** No internet connection required, ever. Your data lives on your phone, period. "Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/" Simple, private, and yours.
