For the moments when products, prototypes, side projects, and late-night ideas are all alive at once. Phaseboard is a quiet, beautiful place to keep them, with each one's current stage, progress, and the one thing to do next. Every project breaks down the same way. From outermost to innermost: project, stage, task, subtask. Statuses roll up automatically as you check things off, so the dashboard always shows which projects deserve your time today. Projects now support deadlines, with a countdown on Home and on the project page. The Calendar page lists every deadline and task due date by month. Three new free widgets show the calendar and upcoming deadlines on the Home Screen. Two styles are available: Quiet, with soft lines and plenty of room, and Classic, the original engineering-manual look. Switch between them any time from the side menu. Phaseboard is built natively for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Your projects sync privately through your own iCloud, with full offline support. Home Screen widgets, Lock Screen views, and a Mac menu bar tile keep what you're working on always in sight. Available in English, Simplified Chinese, and Japanese.

Instead of clearing a checklist, you watch the dots fill in across the month. โ–  The calendar is the home screen - One dot per habit, per day โ€” filled when you finish, partly filled while you are on the way - This month's rhythm and today's habits on one screen - A year view puts all 365 days on a single page โ–  A type that fits each habit - Five kinds: daily check, times per day, minutes per day, times per week, minutes per week - Choose the weekdays and only those days count; a log on an off day is a bonus - Change a goal and past days stay judged by the rules that applied back then โ–  Today stays within reach - Check off and log straight from today's list under the calendar - Missed a day? Tap it on the calendar and fill it in โ–  Right from the Home Screen - Five widgets: Today, This month, One habit, Diary, This year - Tap a circle on a widget to log without opening the app โ€” on iOS from the Lock Screen and Control Center too โ–  Write the day down, too - A diary and a mood for each date, with the days you wrote marked on the calendar - A note on any habit on any day โ€” the line you write on a day you missed is the one worth reading later โ–  See which weekdays work - Completion rate, streaks and per-weekday stats for every habit - Weekly totals and progress bars โ–  Light on its own, together when you need it - Start with no account; your record stays on the device - Sign in with a Haruda account to keep the same record on every device Start with one dot today, and build from there. - - - Haruda Plus ยท Haruda Premium (auto-renewable subscriptions) Plus removes ads from the app. Premium removes ads and adds the automatic bots: write what you ate or how you trained in a note, and they work out the calories, the protein and the training volume for you. - Haruda Plus Monthly: US$0.99 / 1 month - Haruda Plus Yearly: US$7.99 / 1 year - Haruda Premium Monthly: US$2.19 / 1 month - Haruda Premium Yearly: US$19.99 / 1 year - Prices are shown in US dollars and may differ by region; the exact amount appears in the App Store before you confirm. - Payment is charged to your App Store account when you confirm the purchase. - The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and the renewal is charged to the same account. - You can cancel in Settings > Apple Account > Subscriptions on your device. - There is no free trial.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Phaseboard at none against Haruda Ritual's shown. Haruda Ritual's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
