Most habit trackers punish you for being human. Miss one day and your streak resets to zero, so you stop opening the app. GradeDays is different. Every day, grade your effort on each goal: A: crushed it B: solid effort C: showed up, and that still counts There's no all-or-nothing streak to protect. A hard day where you did the bare minimum is still a logged win. Consistency survives real life. FEATURES • Grade up to 9 goals a day across Professional, Personal, and Other categories, each with its own A/B/C definitions you set yourself • Daily GPA and all-time GPA, weighted by how important each goal is to you • Weekly pattern insights — perfect weeks, goals you're consistently missing, and the day of the week you tend to skip • A calendar view of every goal's history, color-coded at a glance • Custom numeric metrics per goal (minutes exercised, pages read, anything you want to track alongside your grade) • Home screen and Lock Screen widgets showing today's GPA and streak • Works offline — log your day without a connection, it syncs when you're back • A daily reminder so grading your day becomes a habit itself • Passwordless sign-in — no password to remember, ever • Export your full history as CSV any time • Full dark mode support Built on the idea that momentum beats intensity: small, honest effort repeated daily gets you further than sporadic perfection. GradeDays just wants you to show up.
