Spoon Manager is an easy-to-use energy tracker based on Spoon Theory. Check in on your energy each morning and night, record what you do, spot your patterns, and plan your day with confidence. Whether you're managing chronic illness, chronic pain, fatigue, ME/CFS, autism, ADHD, or anything else that affects your energy, Spoon Manager helps you stay in control. It's a calm, native app for iPhone and iPad — no accounts, no ads, no tracking. Everything stays on your device. WHAT'S INSIDE • Morning & night check-ins. Each morning, log how many spoons you're starting with; each night, log what's left. See how your days really go instead of guessing — and catch a low patch before it becomes a crash. • An optional pulse reading. Rest a fingertip on the camera for a wearable-free resting heart-rate check-in — a wellness reading, not a medical measurement. No watch or band required. • To-dos that meet your brain halfway. Break a big task into small steps, name the first move, jot why it matters, add a reward, and estimate the time — with dates, reminders, and repeats. • Habits, your way. Count-based or simple, shown as a visual heatmap with streaks that forgive a rest day. • Routines. Run a morning or wind-down routine step by step, at your own pace. • A daily journal. A calm space to reflect, with a one-tap mood check-in, "what shaped today" factors, gratitude, and a morning intention. • Calendar. Day, week, and month views with your Apple Calendar — and, if you like, your Google Calendar — shown right alongside your day. • Goals. Link the to-dos and habits that move a goal and watch its progress bar fill. • See your patterns. Charts bring your energy, mood, and habits together so you can spot what helps and what drains you. • Build-your-own home. Arrange and resize a dashboard of widgets, plus home-screen and lock-screen widgets for your spoons and your week. • Make it yours. Color themes with light and dark mode, an optional Face ID lock, and journal export anytime. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Spoon Manager is built to need none of your data. There are no accounts, no server, no ads, and no analytics or tracking SDKs. Everything you create stays on your device. The one time Spoon Manager goes online is if you choose to connect Google Calendar — a read-only link that shows your events in the app and never sends your data to us. Made by a small independent developer.
