Spark is a habit tracker built for ADHD brains. Shame-free, dopamine-friendly, and forgiving β€” because "all or nothing" thinking is the enemy of consistency. Forgiving streaks Your streak is a health bar, not a light switch. Miss a day? It dips. Come back? It recovers. Never a punishing reset. Active day picker Set which days each habit is active. Rest days don't threaten your streak β€” a workout habit can skip Sundays without penalty. Gentle nudge An optional end-of-day reminder that shows what you've done and what's still waiting. Encouraging, never guilt-inducing. You pick the time. Stats that actually help (Pro) 30-day, 90-day, and 1-year trends. Consistency rates, streak history, and a calendar heatmap. Exportable as PDF or CSV for therapy sessions. Everywhere you are (Pro) iCloud sync across all your devices. Home screen, lock screen, and Apple Watch widgets. Focus mode filter. Siri shortcuts. Fully localized in Mexican Spanish (ES-MX). Free: up to 3 habits, basic streaks, 1 reminder per habit. Pro: unlimited habits, full stats, PDF/CSV export, Siri shortcuts, widgets, and more.
