You already know who won't let you quit. Compete NG is built for two. Link up with someone you care about — a parent, a best friend, a partner — set your own weekly movement goal, and show up for each other. In 2020, our founder set a simple weekly goal and invited his dad — 61 and also struggling — to do the same. No perfection required. Just a promise. Eighteen months later he was down 40 lbs. His dad lost 30 lbs and cut 8 strokes off his golf handicap. That spreadsheet became Compete. Your goal. Your pace. Your person. No judgment. Our health is everything. Take a different approach this time. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Small habits, big change. The basics done daily — better sleep, proper hydration, regular movement, and mindful eating — compound into feeling significantly better over time. Marit makes it easy to stay consistent with these fundamentals through personalized schedules and gentle reminders, all timed to your day. Small habits, big change. The basics done daily -- better sleep, proper hydration, regular movement, and mindful eating -- compound into feeling significantly better over time. Marit makes it easy to stay consistent with these fundamentals through personalized schedules and gentle reminders, all timed to your day. How It Works Take a short onboarding quiz about your sleep, hydration, movement, and screen habits. Marit calculates personalized notification times for your entire day -- from wake-up to wind-down. Choose Quick Start for sensible defaults, or fully customize everything. Features - Smart Sleep Schedule -- Consistent bedtime and wake time with weekend adjustments and screens-off reminders. - Personalized Hydration -- Water intake calculated from your body weight, sex, and activity level, then divided by your bottle size for practical refill reminders. Not generic "drink 8 glasses" advice. - Movement Breaks -- Break up long sitting periods with cardio, flexibility, and strength micro-sessions. Messages rotate between walking, stretches, yoga, and more. - Mindful Screen Time -- Replace impulsive scrolling with planned social media check-ins. Choose 1-10 sessions per day with 10, 15, or 20 minute windows. - Nutrition Awareness -- Eating cutoff reminders timed to your bedtime so you stop eating well before bed. - Routines & Checklists -- Notifications are not just pings. They include interactive workout plans, recipes, and to-do lists you work through step by step. - Gentleness Slider -- Every notification has three tone styles: Firm (direct, action-oriented), Balanced (encouraging, warm), or Gentle (soft, inviting). You choose. - 365-Dot Progress -- Your home screen shows a year-long dot visualization. Every day is a dot. Watch your consistency compound from Day 1 through the year. - Wind-Down Boundary -- All notifications respect a hard stop before bedtime. Marit never buzzes you when you should be winding down. Lifestyle Store Discover complete daily routines from wellness creators, fitness coaches, and community members -- or publish your own for friends and followers. Ships with 8 expert-built templates: Mindful Mornings, Daily Calm, Morning Runner, Strength Foundations, No-Gym Fitness, Eat Well Daily, Plant-Based Budget, and Weekly Meal Prep. When adopting a lifestyle, choose Replace (clean slate) or Overlay (layer on top of your existing habits). Who It's For - People who want healthier daily habits but struggle with consistency - Desk workers who forget to drink water, move, or stop scrolling - Anyone who wants better sleep hygiene - Wellness creators who want to share routines with an audience - People who respond to gentle nudges rather than aggressive tracking Marit is not a fitness tracker, calorie counter, or medical app. It focuses on awareness and gentle accountability for the basics.

The call
