Unique Features: - Zen Visuals: A clean, "Apple-like" aesthetic with bright backgrounds and soft glassmorphism, designed to reduce visual fatigue. - Focus Reflection: After each session, ZenTimer invites you to capture your thoughts. It transforms productivity into a practice of self-awareness. - Pure Flow: No ads, no clutter. Just pure focus with curated ambient sounds and a seamless interface.
Habit Grid

Habit Grid turns showing up into something you can see. Every habit gets its own contribution grid ā one square per day, filling in as you go. A week of effort is a sentence. A year is a picture you can't argue with. TRACK WHAT ACTUALLY MATCHES THE HABIT ⢠Yes / No ā exercise, journaling, anything that's simply done or not ⢠Number ā 30 pages, 8 glasses, 50 push-ups. Going past your target still counts ⢠Duration ā a built-in timer for meditation, study or practice LOG IT IN ONE TAP Today shows exactly what's scheduled, with the right control on every card: a tick, a "+10", or a timer. Swipe one way to complete, the other to take a rest day. Nothing waits on a network, because there isn't one ā every tap lands instantly, and every accidental one can be undone. STREAKS THAT UNDERSTAND REST Schedule a habit for weekdays and the weekend never counts against you. Take a day off on purpose ā ill, travelling, genuinely resting ā and it's marked as skipped and removed from your statistics entirely, instead of breaking a streak you'd earned. Habit density shows how consistent you've really been on the days that were meant to happen. ON YOUR WRIST The Apple Watch app shows everything due today and logs it in one tap, with eight weeks of your grid on every habit. Complications put today's progress, or a single habit's streak, on your watch face. It keeps working when your phone is out of range and catches up when it's back. WITHOUT OPENING THE APP Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets show your grid, today's progress and your streaks ā and log a habit in one tap. Put the habit you log most on the Action Button or in Control Center, and it's one press from anywhere. Ask Siri to log it, or start from Spotlight. And a running timer sits on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, with Finish and +5 minutes right under your thumb. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No sign-in. No server. No analytics or advertising SDKs of any kind ā there are no third-party libraries in this app at all. Your habits live on your device and work entirely offline. The only network request Habit Grid can make is to the App Store, when you buy something. FREE ⢠Two active habits, with full tracking, streaks and history ⢠The Classic Green grid ⢠Daily reminders HABIT GRID PRO ⢠Unlimited habits ⢠Ten more hand-tuned grid palettes ⢠Home Screen, Lock Screen and interactive widgets ⢠Face ID lock ⢠CSV and JSON export, and backup restore ⢠Long-range trends and per-habit performance Archiving a habit keeps its grid, streaks and history ā and archived habits never count towards the free limit. Keeping your past costs nothing. Built entirely with Apple's own frameworks, for iPhone and Apple Watch.
