Build habits that last. Balance is the daily habit tracker for streaks, Home Screen widgets, and deep focus — so consistency finally feels doable. Track the day. Protect the streak. See the chain grow. WHY BALANCE • Daily, weekly, or monthly habits — not a one-size checklist • Streaks with pin, pause, and challenge modes (21, 30, or 100 days) • A real focus timer with Lock Screen Live Activity • Time logging with mood and difficulty, so you see what actually stuck • 10+ Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Control Center widgets • Insights, heatmaps, and patterns — not just a yes/no grid • Themes, gradients, and icons that make opening the app feel good • iCloud on iPhone, iPad, and Mac HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick a habit from the library — or make your own. 2. Check in each day. Log time if you want. Keep the streak alive. 3. Start a challenge or a focus session when you need a push. Your habits stay in your iCloud account. Balance does not run a server that reads them. Download Balance and start the streak today.
