HabitStack helps you build a morning routine that actually sticks. Instead of tracking habits in isolation, you stack small new habits onto the anchors you already do — your first coffee, brushing your teeth — so the whole routine flows in order and nothing gets forgotten. STACK HABITS ONTO ANCHORS Start from something you already do every morning, then stack new habits before or after it. Reorder the stack, set a duration and reminder per step, and build a sequence that feels natural. RUN YOUR MORNING AS A FLOW The Morning Run walks you through the stack one step at a time, so you move through the routine instead of staring at a checklist. A FORGIVING STREAK Keep one streak for the whole routine — with a built-in grace day, skip, and freeze, because one missed morning shouldn't erase weeks of progress. SEE WHAT'S REALLY STICKING The Momentum Engine scores how automatic each routine is becoming and estimates when it could feel effortless — an estimate grounded in habit research, never a promise. Watch your streak calendar and consistency trends build over time. HABITSTACK PRO (optional subscription) The routine builder, morning run, streak, and calendar are free. Pro unlocks multiple routines, your complete history, per-habit consistency, best-time-of-day and weakest-link insights, and shareable weekly reports. - $4.99/month or $29.99/year, with a 7-day free trial - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation; auto-renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel anytime in your App Store settings.

SilverStrong is built for people over 50 who want to move well at home — without a gym, without a class, and without guessing whether any of it is working. START WITH A NUMBER, NOT A GUESS The Check is a five-minute test you do at home: how many times you can stand from a chair in 30 seconds, and how long you can hold four balance positions. Your result is scored against the published figures for your age and sex, so you know where you actually stand. A SESSION BUILT FOR TODAY Every session is assembled to the length you choose, from movements you can actually do — seated, holding on, or free-standing — and it leaves out anything that loads a joint you have told it is sore. IT LISTENS, AND IT CHANGES Rate the effort and any pain at the end, answer one question the next morning, and the plan moves. Two clean sessions and it steps up. Pain, or soreness that is worse the next day, and it eases back. The reason is written on the screen in plain words every time. THE THREE WEEKLY TARGETS Moving minutes, strength days and balance days, tracked separately against the World Health Organization's weekly numbers for adults. Balance is the one almost nobody counts. BUILT FOR THE EYES AND HANDS THAT WILL USE IT Large type, high contrast, generous buttons, spoken instructions so you can look away from the phone, and a light and a dark theme. It works on iPhone and iPad. FREE, AND IT STAYS FREE The Check and its score, a complete session every single day, the whole movement library, the three weekly targets and every safety behaviour are free — permanently. SILVERSTRONG PLUS (optional subscription) - Unlimited re-Checks, your trend line, and a projected date you reach the published average for your age - Sessions that step up on their own, plus 20 and 30 minute lengths - Your stiffness compared across session days and rest days - A printable session sheet and a summary page you can hand your doctor - Your full history $6.99 a month or $39.99 a year, after a 7-day free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation. It renews automatically at the same price unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the end of the period, and you can manage or cancel it any time in your Apple Account settings. SilverStrong is a wellness tool, not medical advice. If something hurts, changes, or worries you, talk to your doctor.
