HabitBoard is a simple and flexible habit tracker. It helps you to form and keep track of your intentional habits, provides valuable insights for your decisions, and offers support in staying attentive. ### Personal Habits If you're just starting out with one or two habits or already have a long list of things you want to keep track of — HabitBoard imposes no limitations on the types of habits you can track. The Free version allows for tracking of 3 habits, Pro supports unlimited habits. ### Historic Data It provides a detailed calendar-like view of your historic data which grows over time. In addition, you get habit-specific statistics like current and longest streaks, completion rate, and count by week, month, and year. ### Statistics HabitBoard provides meaningful and beautiful stats that give an overview over all your tracked habits. You can inspect your overall weekly and monthly completions, get an overall completion rate, and keep track of your daily completions. Available with HabitBoard Pro. ### Weekly Goals and Skipped Days Some habits are not planned daily and HabitBoard makes it easy to configure automatically skipped days and weekly goals per habit. If you set a weekly goal, you'll see an additional label for the current progress in the habit list. ### Notes You can add notes to individual days and review them for each habit. This can come handy to, e.g., remember why you marked a day as skipped, to keep track of when you start a new book with your reading habit, or take note when you start a new progression in your exercise habit. ### Customizable Colors Each habit can use colors according to your personal taste or for visual grouping of habits. You can customize both the colors for done and missed habit states. Available with HabitBoard Pro. ### Widgets HabitBoard offers Lock Screen widgets, a daily completions widget, and small, medium, and a large calendar-like widgets (which are interactive on iOS 17) so that you can glance on your habits even if you're not using the app. ### Shortcuts With the “Mark habit as done” and “Set note for habit” Shortcuts actions, you can combine different tasks to automatically keep your HabitBoard up-to-date. ### Archived Habits Some things also come to an end (or are paused), so HabitBoard offers a dedicated place for archived habits. Habits that live there are still fully interactive, so it can also be used as a more private area for certain habits. Available with HabitBoard Pro. ### Configuration of List Labels Streaks are not always the most meaningful metric — sometimes it's better to focus more on completions. With HabitBoard, you can decide whether you want to display the current streak, weekly, monthly, and yearly completions in addition to the names in the habit list. ### Reminders When you’re starting out, a daily reminder can be useful. If you want, the app notifies you when it’s time to review your HabitBoard for the day. In addition, with HabitBoard Pro, each habit can have its own reminders. You can choose the time and weekdays where you want to be reminded, customize the notification message, and decide whether to be reminded if you already marked the habit for the day. And you can have multiple reminders per habit. ### Automatic Backup and Sync HabitBoard securely and privately backups and syncs your habits via iCloud. If you're using a second device, your data is already there. ### Support for Apple Watch If you’re using an Apple Watch, you can track your daily habits from your wrist. The dedicated watch app allows for marking habits directly (which is synced with the paired iPhone) and provides various complications for your watch face to display daily progress. --- If you have feedback, a bug report, or want to be a beta tester, feel free to reach out via any of the links under *Settings → About*.

Your attention is under siege. Every scroll trains your brain to expect novelty faster — and focus less. Devoro flips the script: same phone, same spare moments, but now they train your focus instead of destroying it. Devoro uses RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation) to display one word at a time at a single fixed point. Your eyes can't wander. Your attention has exactly one target. It's meditation for reading — and when your mind drifts and you rewind, that's not failure. That's a rep. LEARN Curious about something? Type any topic — philosophy, nutrition, how satellites work — and Devoro generates articles just for you. Every article ends with a quiz to test retention and lock in what you learned. Curiosity is the fuel. Attention is the muscle. PRACTICE Not sure where to start? Browse 200+ pre-built articles across 15 topics and build your focus habit with guided speed reading sessions. Quizzes after each article prove you retained it — not just read it. READ Bring your own content. Paste a URL, upload a PDF or EPUB, or drop in plain text. Devoro serves it back at whatever pace you choose — from a comfortable 200 WPM to a blazing 1500. WHAT MAKES DEVORO DIFFERENT: FOCUS TRAINING Most reading apps help you go fast. Devoro trains you to stay focused. The effort isn't a bug — it's the entire point. Five minutes a day on your commute, lunch break, or before bed. Replace the scroll with a training rep. FEATURES • Adjustable speed: 50–1500 WPM • Comprehension quizzes after every article • AI-generated articles on any topic • Import URLs, EPUBs, PDFs, and plain text • Multi-device sync • Beautiful shareable certificates for meaningful speed & retention milestones • 4 themes: dark, midnight, sepia, light • Supports 12 languages Train your attention.
