Snack App nudges you to move - then helps you build a lasting habit. An "exercise snack" is a short bout of movement: a set of push-ups, a quick walk, a minute of stretching. Done a few times a day, they add up. Snack App is the gentle nudge that makes them happen - and helps you build the habit, one snack at a time. • Reminders that fit your day. Pick an interval and active hours - Snack App prompts you to take a movement break, and stays quiet outside your window. • Log it in a tap. Choose from a built-in exercise library (or add your own), and capture reps, weight, distance, duration, and more. • Goals & streaks. Hit your daily snack goal, build a streak, and keep the momentum going - with a little confetti when you do. • Apple Health. Import your workouts with a tap - or from your Apple Watch. Private by design. No account, no ads, no tracking, never sold. Your data lives on your device - back it up to your own cloud whenever you like. 14-day free trial of the full app. If you like it, unlock Snack App for life with a one-time purchase - no subscription, nothing to cancel. If you choose not to, your data remains yours; view it in the app, or export it to a spreadsheet. Small movements, all day, add up to real change.
