Track the things only you care about. Most tracking apps force you into predefined categories — steps, calories, sleep. But what about the things that matter specifically to you? The number of pages you read each day. Your espresso shot count. How many minutes you spent practicing guitar. Your dog's weight after switching food brands. The pH level of your garden soil. TrackIt lets you create fully custom projects and track any numerical data over time — no templates, no limitations, no assumptions about what's worth measuring. YOUR DATA, YOUR WAY Create a project for anything you want to monitor. Add one or more data series to each project to track related metrics side by side. Enter values whenever you have them — daily, weekly, or whenever it makes sense. TrackIt adapts to how you work, not the other way around. SEE THE BIGGER PICTURE Every data series comes with a built-in chart so you can visualize trends at a glance. Watch your progress unfold over time and spot patterns you might otherwise miss. TrackIt automatically calculates key statistics including mean and standard deviation, giving you a clear understanding of where your numbers stand. ORGANIZE EVERYTHING IN ONE PLACE Group related measurements into projects. Track your garden with series for soil moisture, sunlight hours, and plant height — all in one place. Monitor a home renovation with separate series for budget spent, hours worked, and tasks completed. Add descriptions to your projects and series so you always remember what you were measuring and why. EXPORT AND SHARE Your data belongs to you. Export any project as CSV or JSON to analyze further in a spreadsheet, share with a doctor, or simply keep as a backup. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No TrackIt account. No ads. No automatic analytics upload. New projects and entries stay on your device. TrackIt may perform a one-time, read-only import of a backup created by an earlier version, but it no longer writes changes to iCloud. Data leaves the app only when you deliberately export or share it. BUILT FOR - Health and wellness: Track symptoms, supplements, blood pressure, or any metric your doctor asks you to monitor - Hobbies and skills: Log practice sessions, project progress, or creative output - Home and garden: Monitor plant growth, energy usage, home improvement budgets - Fitness beyond the basics: Track specific lifts, flexibility measurements, or sport-specific stats - Work and productivity: Measure focus time, completed tasks, or billable hours - Curiosity: Finally answer "I wonder if..." by tracking the data and seeing for yourself If you've ever wished you could track something but couldn't find an app that does exactly what you need, TrackIt is for you. Start tracking what matters to you.

Whether you want more sun or more shade, with Glowli you always find the perfect route. Collect rays on your walks and grow a garden for your sun companion! Glowli knows where the sun is in relation to your position and if the buildings around you are casting shadows, in order to help you find the sunniest or shadiest route to your destination. If the day is too hot, flip the switch and get the shadiest route instead. Same map, opposite goal! GET MORE SUN Tap a destination. Glowli shows three walking routes ranked by how much sun reaches the sidewalk between now and when you'd arrive. Building shadows are calculated live, so the route updates as the sun moves.

Things grow, drift, and bloom on their own time. MEET YOUR SUNFRIEND A small fox lives on the island. The more sun you get, the brighter and bouncier it gets. Skip a few days and it goes quiet.
