Goalz is for people with real goals and 30 seconds a day to track them. Pick a window — the rest of the year, this month, a training block — and put your goals inside it. Daily habits, weekly routines, monthly projects, numbers to hit. Goalz tells you honestly whether you're ahead of pace or behind it, and it never guilt-trips you over a day that isn't finished yet. BUILT FOR PROGRESS, NOT PERFECTION Targets default to hitting 80% of days — because streak-or-die apps break the first week you get the flu. Miss a day, tap it in later from the calendar, keep going. LOGS ITSELF WITH APPLE HEALTH Connect Apple Health and watch goals check themselves off: close your Apple Watch rings, log food in any nutrition app, weigh in on a smart scale, take a blood-pressure reading — Goalz sees it and fills in your day, even in the background. A small heart marks anything auto-logged. Your edits always win. YOUR WHOLE DAY ON ONE SCREEN Tap-friendly tiles for daily habits, compact rows for the week. A calendar of progress rings shows your month at a glance. The dashboard answers one question first: how many goals are at pace? EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK Home-screen widgets you can log from without opening the app. An Apple Watch app for wrist-taps. A daily reminder at the time you choose. MAKE IT YOURS Ten themes, from Midnight to Linen to Arcade. Same app, different mood. YOUR DATA IS YOURS — ACTUALLY No account. No server. No analytics. Everything lives on your device, with automatic local backups and one-tap export (JSON + Markdown). Apple Health data is read-only and never leaves your phone. Goalz is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice. Consult your physician before starting a weight-loss or exercise program.
