Notch turns any goal into a dot grid you fill in as you progress: no streaks, no daily requirement, no guilt. Tap when you make progress. Watch it fill up. Most goal apps are habit trackers with a new frame. Miss a day and your streak breaks. You feel bad. You stop opening the app. Notch works differently. Set a goal, any goal: 50 books, 1,000 km, $10,000 saved, a novel written. Pick how many steps it takes to get there. Tap each time you make progress. A dot lights up. Over weeks and months, your grid fills in. You see how far you've come. Not a percentage or a bar chart. A grid that grows each time you show up. Notch has no daily requirement. It doesn't track when you last opened it. Go a month without progress and nothing resets. Notch doesn't score your consistency. It records your progress. Set a deadline if you want one. Notch shows how much time remains on your widget and inside the app, without judgment. Missed your deadline? We'll gently mark it as overdue. Nothing resets. Nothing breaks. A home screen widget keeps your goals in front of you throughout the day; now showing days remaining for deadlines and overdue indicators at a glance. WHAT'S INCLUDED - Visual dot grid for any goal - Custom emoji, name, and unit per tracker (runs, kg, books, $, pages) - Optional deadlines with widget countdown - Overdue indicator for past-due goals - Home screen widget (Pro) - Analytics (Pro) - iCloud sync (Pro) - Backup and restore (Pro) - No account. No subscription. NOTCH PRO One purchase unlocks unlimited trackers, the home screen widget, analytics, iCloud sync, and backup. No recurring charges. Pay once for lifetime use.
