Glide is a habit tracker that forgives you when you miss a day. Instead of punishing broken streaks, Glide measures your 28-day momentum - a weighted score that gently declines when you slip and bounces back the moment you return. No streaks. No guilt. Just progress. WHY GLIDE IS DIFFERENT Most habit apps use streaks that break the moment you miss a day, leaving you feeling defeated. Glide replaces that with momentum - a 28-day weighted completion rate that rewards consistency and offers a forgiving approach to slip-ups. Miss a day? Your score dips slightly. Come back tomorrow? It rises again. That is the whole philosophy: yesterday is gone, today is a fresh start. This focus on progress over perfection makes Glide a great fit for anyone who finds traditional streak trackers discouraging, including people with ADHD who need a gentler daily routine. CORE FEATURES One-Tap Check-In Tap any habit card to check in. Long press to set a 0-5 intensity - because partial credit counts. Every checkin nudges your momentum forward. Momentum Grid See 16 weeks of history at a glance. Each cell shows your completion intensity, so you can spot patterns and celebrate progress - not perfection. 28-Day Momentum Score A weighted completion rate over the last 28 days. Recent days count more, so your latest effort matters most. Watch your score climb as you build consistency. Forgiveness Built In If you forget to check in yesterday, Glide offers a gentle backfill banner the next morning. No shame, no lost streaks. Just tap "Backfill" and keep going. Skip Without Penalty Having an off day? Skip any habit with no penalty to your momentum. Rest days are part of the journey. Smart Reminders Set a daily reminder for each habit. When a reminder fires, check in, skip, or snooze directly from the notification - no need to open the app. 20+ Habit Templates Start quickly with ready-made templates for daily routines like meditation, exercise, journaling, reading, hydration, and more. Each template comes with a suggested icon and color. Custom Habits Build your own habits with custom names, icons, colors, frequency, and custom goals. Habit Statistics Track your total check-ins, current momentum percentage, and best day run for every habit. See the bigger picture at a glance. Data Export Export your habit history as CSV, JSON, or PDF. Your data is yours - take it anywhere. Biometric Lock Protect your habits with Face ID or Touch ID. Your data stays private, even when someone borrows your phone. Dark Mode Glide looks beautiful in both light and dark mode, following your system preference. Home Screen Widget Add the Glide widget to your home screen to see today's habits and check in with one tap.
