Red is a hand drawn habit tracker with real stakes. You want to adopt a red panda? Well the Matron wants real proof you can look after your own red panda. So keep your habits for 30 days and she’ll let him come home with you. Until then, he stays put. Red helps you keep track of the things you keep meaning to do, with a small, deeply concerned panda for motivation. ▶ Set daily, weekly or monthly habits. ▶ Check off your tasks and track progress towards weekly and monthly goals. ▶ Set reminders for the things you tend to forget. ▶ Earn Sad Bucks and buy fun customisations while he waits. New chairs, rugs, backgrounds. Make it weird. ▶ Negotiate with the Matron to change a habit or take a short break. You only get so many favours. ▶ Keep a family album of the pandas you’ve adopted... and the ones you haven’t. You only get three strikes, or the Matron takes him back. Hand-drawn characters, painted rooms, and a panda who would really appreciate you drinking that glass of water. Don’t let him down.

Storey is a habit tracker built around weekly goals. Choose how many days a week you want to exercise, read, meditate or keep any habit, and build a city from your progress. Set a goal from 1 to 7 days a week: exercise 3 days, read 4 days, or meditate 5 days. You choose which days to complete it. Weeks run Sunday to Saturday. Every week you meet a habit's goal adds a permanent floor to its building. Miss a day or a week? The floors you've earned stay. Because your habits deserve more than checkmarks. In Storey, every habit is a building. Keep the habit today and you lay a brick — a lit window in tonight's skyline. Hit your weekly goal and the building tops out: a whole new story rises, permanently. Miss a week and nothing is torn down; your city simply waits for you to build again. Over months, your consistency becomes a place. A street of towers, each one the true record of something you kept doing.
