If you got just 1% better every day, in one year you'd be 37 times better than today. That's the math: 1.01^365 = 37.78 Small steps don't just add up, they compound. Most habit trackers overwhelm you with too much form filling. You lose sight of the bigger picture: compounding progress over time. 1% Better is different. One question. One tap. Every day. "Were you 1% better today?" Answer honestly. Watch your progress compound. See the math become real. HOW IT WORKS - Every day, answer one question: "Were you 1% better today?" - Tap Yes or No — that's it - Your score compounds by 1% for every Yes (just like the math) - Watch your curve climb toward 37x over the year - Compare your actual progress against the ideal compounding curve in real time FEATURES - Beautiful dark-mode interface with neon data visualisation - Track one global habit or add custom categories (Health, Reading, Music, Career - anything you want) - Streaks that actually motivate (because you can see the compound effect) - Edit past entries anytime - no pressure, just honesty - Daily reminders keep you on track - All your data syncs privately via iCloud - we never see it - Home screen widget shows your progress without opening the app WHY IT WORKS Most people quit habits because progress feels invisible. You work hard, but the results seem flat. 1% Better makes compounding *visible*. You'll see your curve rise. You'll watch small decisions stack into exponential growth. And on tough days, you'll see exactly what you'd be losing if you quit. The math is simple. The results are undeniable. Start your journey to 37x better. Download 1% Better today.
