Most habit apps let you fail quietly. This one doesn't. Pick one thing, water your tree once a day, and watch it grow for a year. Miss fourteen days in a row and it dies, permanently. The workout, the pages, the practice — the thing you keep telling yourself you'll do every day. Now do it, once a day, for a year. That's the whole app. Habit Tree gives your habit a body. Every day you show up, you water it, and it grows — slowly, the way real habits do. From a seed, to a sprout, to a tree that fills your screen and towers over the hills, with roots that run as deep as the canopy is wide. Miss a day and it wilts. Let it die and the next tree starts from a bare seed. But slip once and come back, and the app tells you plainly: it's not too late. And you won't be alone out there. Keep your tree alive and a whole life unfolds beside it. We won't spoil what happens, or when. No accounts. No streak-shaming notifications every hour. No social feed to perform for. Your data never leaves your phone — there's no server, because there doesn't need to be one. Try it free for 7 days. If it earns a place on your home screen, unlock it forever with a single one-time payment — no subscription, no recurring charge, no ads ever. Features: - One button, once a day — the entire interaction - A full-screen tree that grows for a whole year, procedurally, so no two trees look alike - A calendar showing every day you watered and every day you missed - A story that unfolds beside your tree as the months go by - A real celebration when you reach one year - Day, dusk and night skies that follow your clock - A daily reminder that fires even when the app is closed - Works fully offline, forever - Nothing collected, nothing tracked, nothing sold This isn't a habit tracker with fifty charts. It's a single, honest bet: pick one thing, do it daily, and watch what a year of consistency actually looks like.
