olea is a subscription-required habit tracker built for how life actually works, not for perfect streaks. OLEA PRO SUBSCRIPTION REQUIRED Olea is free to download, but every feature described below requires an active Olea Pro subscription purchased separately in the app. Eligible new subscribers may receive a free trial. The app shows the available plan duration, trial length, and localized price before purchase. MISS A DAY, KEEP YOUR PROGRESS Life happens. olea's rebuild state means missing a day never wipes out what you've built. No punishing streak resets, no red X's, no guilt, just a quiet nudge back on track. BUILT LIKE CRAFT, NOT A SPREADSHEET Every habit gets its own consistency ring and day trail, rendered in a warm, paper-inspired design with serif type. Tracking habits should feel good to look at, not like filling out a form. Designed with ADHD and inconsistent schedules in mind, olea skips the shame spiral that most habit trackers build in by default. Progress stays visible even on the days that don't go as planned. Track anything: reading, exercise, water, meditation, sleep, journaling, medication reminders, and more.
