Basic Fidgit is a digital fidget toy collection: sixty tactile fidgets, one tap away. Built for the moments your hands need something to do and your brain needs a beat. Whether you're in ADHD hyperfocus, anxious at your desk, or just need something tactile to hold your attention, Basic Fidgit delivers the satisfying feel of a real fidget toy, right in your pocket. 60 UNIQUE FIDGET EXPERIENCES Spin, pop, rip, rake, shake, and strike your way through sixty distinct toys, from a magnetic orb cluster to a snow globe, a singing bowl, a rain stick, and a paper pinwheel. Sink a rack at Cup Pong, draw a bow, beat the keeper, or keep a wall rally alive. Start with two fidgets free. Unlock all 60 with a single one-time purchase, no subscription, ever. Every interaction was designed to feel as close to a real fidget toy as possible: realistic physics, hand-tuned haptics, satisfying audio, and smooth Midnight Kinetic visuals that are easy on the eyes. NO PRESSURE. NO PUSH. Basic Fidgit doesn't gamify your attention. A few of the games keep a score or a best streak while you play, because that's the fun of them, but nothing follows you out of the app. No daily goals, no reminders, no push notification asking you to come back. Open it. Decompress. Close it. That's the whole loop. WHEN TO USE IT • In meetings when your mind needs a quiet outlet • Studying or working when focus starts to slip • Anxious moments that need a physical anchor • Any time you'd reach for a pen to click or a coin to spin WHO IT'S FOR People with ADHD, anxiety, or sensory needs. Fidgeters who've broken three spinners this year. Anyone who thinks better with their hands occupied. No accounts. No tracking. No ads. Just fidget.

Grid

Your habits, as a grid you can actually see. Grid turns your habits into a contribution grid, like the one developers get on their code profile. One tap fills a square. Green builds up. Streaks become obvious, and so do the gaps. HOW IT WORKS 1. Add a habit. Three are free, and you do not need an account. 2. Tap the square when you do it. 3. Watch the grid fill in. That's the whole app. WHY A GRID AND NOT ANOTHER CHECKLIST A grid shows a whole year at once. You do not need to open a chart to know how the last three months went: the colour tells you in half a second. Missing a day stays visible instead of disappearing, which is exactly why people keep going. FREE, WITHOUT LIMITS - One-tap tracking and the full colour grid - Home-screen widgets, with no upgrade prompt - Streaks, stats, Perfect Days - 3 habits, 30 days of history, forever - Nothing to sign up for, no ads, no data selling, no social feed GRID PREMIUM - Unlimited habits - Full grid history, not just the last 30 days - Streak rescue and deeper streak analytics - Habit autopsy and load coaching: see which days and habits actually hold - AI-written weekly reviews - Clean share cards without a watermark - Custom colours and icons, CSV export - 7-day free trial, then $1.99 per month or the annual plan. Cancel anytime, and your grid stays yours. BUILT FOR REAL LIFE Choose which weekdays count toward a streak, so a gym habit on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays still builds one. Turn on vacation mode and a planned break stops counting against you. Set a reminder for the time you actually do the thing. NEVER LOSE YOUR GRID Sign in once and your grid syncs. New phone, reinstall, lost device: your squares come back with you. Grid Premium is an auto-renewing subscription charged to your store account and can be cancelled any time in your store settings. Prices vary by region.
