Forward is your all-in-one personal growth OS. Habits, nutrition, training, sleep, steps, fasting and the things you want to quit live in one app, with a game layer that rewards showing up and friends who keep you honest. You choose what to track. Forward builds your day around it and turns every log into progress you can see. YOUR PILLARS, YOUR HOME Pick the trackers that matter: habits, calories, protein, workouts, steps, sleep, fasting, quit. Your Home shows exactly those as circles. Hold a bubble to swap a tracker or drag it to a new spot, and pick the look you like. Widgets for the Home Screen and the Lock Screen, with habit check-off right on the widget. A GAME YOU PLAY BY LIVING Every log earns XP and your permanent Life Rank climbs on it. Three small quests a day; finish all three and tomorrow every log counts double. The weekly effort meter shows how strong your week is, with a target you pick. Keep a Life Streak with a weekly freeze, earn Sparks and open Mystery Spark Boxes for themes, frames, covers, ring styles, sounds and app icons. Everything cosmetic, nothing pay-to-win. HABITS THAT FORGIVE Build routines with flexible frequencies and reminders. Pause a habit instead of quitting it. Your progress is weekly, so one bad Tuesday never erases your work. Block the apps that steal your time until you log, if you want the extra push. NUTRITION WITHOUT THE SPREADSHEET Snap a photo of a meal, type it or say it: Forward reads the foods and realistic portions and matches them to the USDA database for calories, macros and key micronutrients. Save your go-to meals, keep meal photos, log in two taps. Your calorie ring follows your goal, whether you are cutting, maintaining or building. Fasting with six stages, protocols like 16:8, OMAD and 5:2, and an editable history. TRAINING THAT PLANS ITSELF Set up your week with a ready-made split, your own days, or import a routine from text, screenshots or a PDF. Log one exercise per screen with your last numbers beside you and let the progressive overload engine suggest what to lift next. Rest timer on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, supersets, PR celebrations, GPS cardio with live heart rate, Apple Watch workouts merged automatically, 225 exercises with hand-drawn icons. BODY, SLEEP AND STEPS Body Age turns your Apple Watch signals into a biological age and a fitness age, explained factor by factor: an estimate for perspective, not a diagnosis. Sleep debt with a weekly trend, sleep stages, schedule and bedtime reminders. A daily steps goal. Trends for every signal. NORTH, YOUR AI COACH North reads your real week and answers with specifics, not generic advice. A daily briefing, charts drawn from your own data inside the chat, and questions like "what should I eat tonight?". AI features ask for your consent first. BETTER TOGETHER Add friends and let streaks ignite on their own when you both keep logging. Group streaks, weekly Friend Quests, one-to-one chat, 24-hour stories, and an invite that rewards you both. Accountability without leaderboards or shame, with block and report built in. ALSO IN FORWARD - Apple Health connected: workouts and meals sync both ways; steps, sleep and heart signals come in - Live Activities for workouts, timers and the evening "Tonight" card, with Mark done and Log now on the Lock Screen - Stats that give verdicts, not squiggles, with weekly and monthly recaps - Meal reminders around your usual times, a morning check-in and streak alerts - Medication reminders, focus and interval timers - 7 themes plus colorways, all in light and dark - English, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese and German Forward is free to download and use. Every feature is available to everyone at no cost.
