Pebble — step-based habit & task tracker Build momentum, not just checkmarks. Pebble lets you break any task into small steps you can swipe to record—so even “one line of code” or “10 pages read” counts and keeps your streak alive. Why Pebble? Traditional to-do apps are all-or-nothing. Pebble tracks the progress inside the task. You decide what a “step” means: Progress units (e.g., 1 step = 10 minutes of coding), or Weekly frequency (e.g., basketball 2×/week = 2 steps). How it works Create a task with an emoji and choose the number of steps. Swipe a step whenever you make progress—tiny or big. Set reminders for the exact days and time you want a nudge. Watch your streak grow and your targets fill up. Features Step-based tracking: capture partial progress with satisfying swipes. Weekly goals: set steps to represent how many times per week you’ll do something. Flexible steps: increase/decrease step count anytime; add labels or emoji inside steps. Smart reminders: pick specific weekdays and a time (e.g., Tue/Fri 19:00). Streaks & targets: stay motivated with clear progress bars and completion states. Quick controls: Shift, Reset, and Delete for fast adjustments. Themes & language: Day, Night, and Chill Vibes; English & Turkish. Daily quote: optional inspiration to keep you moving. Great for Coding daily, reading, workouts, language practice, instrument sessions, study blocks, side-projects—and any habit where progress > perfection. Pebble turns tiny actions into visible momentum—one swipe at a time.
