Breakpoint: Reset is an execution protocol. Not a journal. Not a habit tracker. When you’re stuck, you’re not lazy — you’re looping. Breakpoint interrupts the loop and forces a decision. In one reset session • Define the future you’re avoiding (Anti-Vision) • Define the future you actually want (Vision) • Name the pattern blocking you (Enemy) • Lock 2–3 actions for tomorrow — with a time What you get • Less noise in your head • A clear enemy to fight • Tomorrow scheduled • Evidence of decisions (not performance) Key features • 1-Hour Reset protocol (one question at a time) • Tomorrow actions (2–3 only) • Local notifications for locked actions • Evidence log: enemy recurrence + decision history Breakpoint doesn’t motivate you. It interrupts you — until you decide. --- Questions or Feedback? • codefulteam@gmail.com Privacy Policy • https://codeful.notion.site/Privacy-Policy-2f54dae30045806fa16bf9e967297ce3 Terms of Use • https://codeful.notion.site/Terms-of-use-2f54dae30045805e9929da01b4da2bbe • https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Ember is a habit tracker that pays you in fire. Write down what needs doing. A task is worth one to five logs; finish it and the bundle goes on the fire. That is the whole deal: the work is the fuel. THE WALL OF EMBERS A habit is an ember. Relight it every day and the streak grows. Miss one and the record says so, honestly, because a tracker that flatters you is not tracking anything. Meeting the goal is what pays: two of three glasses is nothing yet. WHAT THE FIRE KEEPS Todos and quests, with tags and five-log entries A focus timer with a bonus round and a fortnight of sittings behind it Meditation and breathing, timed, with a proper bell A shopping list that remembers what you buy Your step count, read from Health, turned into timber for the fire THE DAY ROLLS AT 4AM One in the morning belongs to the evening behind it. Habits reset at four, not at midnight, because that is when a day actually ends. NOTHING NOISY No ads. No streaks-are-about-to-die panic. No "we miss you". The only notifications are the ones you set: the bell when your meditation is up, the nudge when a focus sitting ends, and your own alarms. MEMBERSHIP Free lights three embers a day. Everything else is free for everyone: the quests, the routines, the timers, cloud sync. Membership lifts the one cap. Weekly and yearly plans are auto-renewing subscriptions charged to your Apple Account. They renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends, and you can manage or cancel in Settings. Any unused part of a free trial is forfeited when you buy a subscription. Privacy Policy: https://www.playembergame.com/privacy Terms of Use: https://www.playembergame.com/terms
