Your life is the game. Level up for real. Level Journey turns your habits, tasks and goals into an RPG. Every real thing you finish gives your hero XP and gold. Do a little every day and you grow, on screen and in real life. Start playing in seconds. Pick what you want to grow, choose your hero and finish your first quest. You make an account only at the end, to save your hero. NEW: THE WALK • Your real steps fill a ring. Walk to the chests on it and open them for gold or an item. • Past 10,000 steps a second ring opens. A weekly chest waits at 50,000 steps. • A chest you reached is never lost. Steps come from Apple Health, read only. • See your ring on the Home Screen and the Lock Screen with the widget. YOUR HERO • Choose from 9 heroes, free. Each one has its own look and colour. • Spend gold on stats, and forge your weapon and armour to make them stronger. • Level up all the way to 200, and unlock a specialization as you grow.

Sell them, or keep them for Map quests. • Visit the Shop: three new offers every day, sometimes a Mystery Chest. YOUR CIRCLE • Join a Circle with friends and fight a boss together. • Every task, ritual and goal step you finish loads a strike. Tap the boss to hit it. • When everyone in the Circle fights on the same day, the boss takes an extra team hit. • Chat, cheer each other on, and pick a crest for your Circle. • A Circle is a team, not a ranking. You win together.

Each week may begin with clear goals, yet once daily demands pile up those aims fade and progress halts. The issue is rarely effort; it is the lack of a steady system that keeps priorities in sight and results easy to see. Ascento provides this system with straightforward planning tools, built-in habit tracking, gentle reminders, and clear visuals—turning every small step into steady, proven momentum. Features: Scheduler View - Day View – plan and execute today’s priorities hour-by-hour, so nothing important slips through. - Week View – balance your week at a glance: see the goal for each day and adjust tasks to keep workload even. - Month View – spot long-term consistency with a color-coded calendar that turns green (all habits done), yellow (some), or soft red (none). Habits Overview - Habit List – see all habits in one scrollable list and mark each as done with a single tap. - Quick Add & Reorder – create new habits in seconds and drag to arrange them in the order that matters to you. Individual Habit Page - Progress Tab – weekly and monthly graphs transform daily records into clear streaks and totals. - Timer Tab – run a built-in stopwatch to log focused minutes without leaving the app. - Notes Tab – jot reflections or tips for every session to refine your routine. - Custom Metrics – track minutes, reps, miles, yes/no, or any value you define. - Flexible Start Date – choose when the habit begins so past stats only reflect days it actually existed. Extra Power, Zero Clutter - Gentle push reminders keep you on track without nagging. - Weekly and monthly dashboards plus custom date-range reports. - Private, ad-free storage with iCloud/Firebase sync across devices. - Dark-mode friendly design and color-blind-safe palette.
