Turn the principles you believe in into the way you actually live. Life Rules is a calm, focused place to write the handful of rules you want to live by, keep them in front of you every day, and prove to yourself that you are doing it. WHY LIFE RULES Most of us already know what we should do. The gap is between knowing and doing. Life Rules closes it with three things: your rules where you can see them, a daily nudge, and an honest record of the days you lived up to them. SET UP IN A MINUTE (NEW) Tell the app what you are trying to hold yourself to and it suggests the rules that fit. Pick three, and they are on your Home Screen before you have finished setting up, with your first check-in already logged and your morning reminder set to the time you choose. YOUR ACTIVITY GRID Every day you check in fills a square. Months of them form a picture of your consistency that a single number never could. Scroll back through half a year at a glance and see the runs you strung together, and the gaps you would rather not repeat. YOUR HISTORY, ON EVERY DEVICE Your rules and your entire check-in history sync privately through iCloud. Change your phone, keep your streak. DAILY STREAKS Check in once a day when you have lived by your rules, and watch the run grow. Milestones at 7, 30, 100, and 365 days are worth celebrating, and worth sharing. CHECK IN WITHOUT OPENING THE APP Tap the flame on your Home Screen widget, or straight from the daily notification. CURATED RULE PACKS Not sure where to start? Nearly 60 hand-written rules across six packs: Stoic Wisdom, Deep Focus, Health and Energy, Money Rules, Stronger Bonds, and Calm Mind. Adopt the ones that resonate with a single tap. RULE OF THE DAY One of your rules arrives as a notification each day, at a time you choose. A different rule each morning keeps every principle fresh. HOME SCREEN AND LOCK SCREEN WIDGETS Small and medium Home Screen widgets, plus a Lock Screen widget. Your rule rotates through the day, and you can match the background to the rest of your setup. SHARE STUDIO Turn a rule into something worth posting. Pick a palette, generate a high-resolution square image, toggle the QR code, and share it anywhere in a tap. SIMPLE BY DESIGN Write a rule in a line. Drag to reorder as your priorities shift. Choose which rules appear in your widget. No feeds, no social graph, no noise. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account and no tracking. Your rules are yours, synced only to your own devices through iCloud. LIFE RULES PRO Unlimited rules Share images without a watermark Alternate app icons Support a small independent developer Write the rules. Live them. Watch the squares fill in.
