HeartStash is a 365‑day savings challenge turned into a simple, visual collecting game. Instead of one big abstract goal, your yearly savings are broken into 365 small tiles arranged in a heart‑shaped grid. Each day, you choose any tile to “check in” based on how much you can save that day. Choose your own starting amount and daily increment, then watch your heart fill up as your savings grow. No accounts, no logins, no cloud sync – everything stays safely on your device. Core features Custom savings plans Set a plan name, starting amount, and daily increment. The app automatically generates 365 tiles with an arithmetic progression of amounts. Heart‑shaped check‑in grid 365 tiles laid out as a heart for strong visual motivation. Tap any incomplete tile to confirm a deposit; long‑press a completed tile to undo. Non‑linear saving No fixed order. On good days choose larger amounts, on tight days pick smaller ones – all progress counts toward the same yearly goal. Live progress overview See total saved, days checked in, completion rate, and remaining amount in a clean, minimal dashboard. Daily local reminders Set a daily reminder time so HeartStash can gently nudge you to check in and keep your streak going. CSV export for review and backup Export all entries to a CSV file (grid index, amount, status, date) and share it to Files, email, or chat apps for long‑term tracking. Offline‑first & private by design Works 100% offline. Data is stored locally with SwiftData; there are no servers, accounts, or third‑party analytics. Multi‑language UI Supports multiple languages (including Chinese, English and more), with instant in‑app switching. HeartStash is built for people who want a gentle, visual way to build a savings habit – one small heart tile at a time.
