Track habits with colorful grids—just like GitHub contributions. Tap circles to check in from widgets, get smart reminders, and watch your streaks grow at a glance. Perfect for building morning routines, fitness habits, reading goals, and any daily practice you want to make stick. Simple, visual, and incredibly satisfying. WHY GRID IS DIFFERENT Most habit trackers hide your progress behind menus and stats screens. Grid puts everything front and center with a visual grid for each habit—tap today's circle, watch it turn green, and see your patterns emerge instantly. Your habits appear as horizontal rows with scrollable grids showing the last 90 days. Green circles = completed. Gray = missed. It's impossible to ignore your consistency (or lack of it). STAY ON TRACK WITH SMART REMINDERS Set custom notifications for each habit—morning meditation at 7am, evening reading at 9pm, or water reminders throughout the day. Grid sends gentle reminders exactly when you need them, keeping you consistent without being annoying. CHECK IN FROM YOUR HOME SCREEN Grid's home screen widgets let you see and complete habits without opening the app. Glance at your progress, tap to check in, and keep your momentum going—all from your iPhone home screen or lock screen. Widget options: - Today's Habits - See all habits and check them off - Single Habit Focus - Track your most important habit with a mini-grid - Quick access from small, medium, or large widgets FEATURES - Unlimited habits (100% free) - Visual grid tracking for each habit - Home screen & lock screen widgets - Custom reminders for each habit - Satisfying check-in animation with confetti - Streak counters that motivate you daily - Share cards to celebrate milestones - Full calendar view with detailed stats - Dark mode support - No ads, no account required - All your data stays on your device PERFECT FOR Morning routines (meditation, journaling, exercise) Health goals (drink water, take vitamins, track sleep) Fitness habits (gym, running, yoga, stretching) Learning (read daily, practice language, study) Productivity (deep work, no social media, inbox zero) Self-improvement (gratitude, mindfulness, reflection) HOW IT WORKS 1. Add a habit with an emoji and name 2. Set a reminder time (optional) 3. Get notified when it's time 4. Tap the circle to check in—from the app or widget 5. Watch green squares fill up your grid 6. Build unstoppable streaks 7. Share your progress when you hit milestones NEVER MISS A HABIT Grid's notification system is designed to help, not harass. Set one reminder or multiple throughout the day. Snooze if you need more time. Dismiss if you're done. Each habit gets its own reminder schedule that works for your life. THE GRID APPROACH Inspired by GitHub's contribution graph, Grid makes habit tracking visual and immediate. You don't need to dig through menus to see how you're doing—your grids and widgets tell the story at a glance. Miss a day? You'll see the gap. Building consistency? The pattern becomes obvious.

Habit Tracker Grid turns your daily routines into a grid you actually want to look at. Complete a habit and the day lights up. Skip it and the gap stays visible. That is the whole idea: your consistency becomes something you can see at a glance. WHY A GRID Most habit apps hand you a checklist that resets every morning and forgets everything you did before. The grid keeps your history in front of you. A full month sits on one screen, so your streaks, your patterns and the days you slipped are all visible without digging through menus. TRACK WHAT MATTERS - Set your own target, unit and step for every habit: 3 workouts, 50 push-ups, 2 litres of water, 20 pages - One tap to complete, or count up when a single tap is not the whole story - Move month by month through your history MAKE IT YOURS - Several grid themes, from clean and minimal to neon and glass - Pick a custom hue when none of the presets fit - Use your own photo as the app background - Liquid glass effects and adjustable grid transparency STAY ON TRACK - Reminders per habit, at the time you choose - Earn levels and unlock achievements as your streaks grow - Advanced statistics for a deeper look at your completion rates and streaks YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS - Your habits live on your device and in your own iCloud. We never see them. - No account. No sign-up. No ads. - Export a complete JSON backup any time and import it back - A Home Screen widget keeps your progress visible without opening the app SIX LANGUAGES English, German, Spanish, French, Japanese and Chinese.
