Kada vs Boring Tracker

Kada helps you build habits that actually stick, with a calm, focused design and numbers you can check. No account, no ads, no noise. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your habits stay on your device. No account, no tracking, no ads, and habit tracking works offline. The only copy that leaves your iPhone is an automatic backup in your own iCloud Drive, which you can turn off. Lock Kada with Face ID or your passcode if you like. When online, Kada may contact Expo to check for app updates. HABITS, YOUR WAY Track simple check-off habits, counters (8 glasses of water), measured goals (run 5 km, read 20 pages) or timed habits (meditate 10 minutes). Schedule them daily, on specific weekdays, or X times per week. APPLE HEALTH, HANDS FREE Link a habit to steps, water, sleep, mindful minutes or exercise, and it checks itself off when you reach the goal. Kada only reads from Health, and that data stays on your device. A TIMER THAT KEEPS RUNNING Start a timer on a timed habit and follow it on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island with a Live Activity, even with the app closed. SIRI, SHORTCUTS AND WIDGETS Check off a habit or ask what's left today with Siri and Shortcuts. Widgets on the Home Screen and Lock Screen keep your day in view. LIFE HAPPENS Fix any past day with its exact value, and undo it if you change your mind. Pause a habit for a trip, an illness or a different season: paused days don't count as misses, and your history stays as it is. Streaks also come with a built-in grace day, so one missed day doesn't erase weeks of progress. PROGRESS YOU CAN CHECK Every habit shows its Recent pace: how often you really did it over the last few weeks. Progress says "59 of 74 goals met" instead of a vague percentage. See your week, 15 days, month, year or all time, with a consistency heatmap, a calendar you can drill into and weekday patterns. Every chart can also be read as text. SHARE A MILESTONE Turn a streak, a full day or a good week into a simple card for Messages or Stories. Only the card you pick is shared. CALM BY DESIGN No ads, no manipulative badges, no endless notifications. Just a clear, beautiful view of the person you're becoming. An optional Supporter Pack adds color themes and app icons. Nothing is locked. Kada. Your habits, on your device, for life.

Boring Tracker is an app for writing down numbers. Free, open source, no ads, no accounts, no subscription, no server, no feature bloat. Type a number, done. Most other macro trackers want you to scan a barcode for every ingredient of a dish you cooked yourself. It takes a lot of time for no benefit. This one just lets you write down "600 calories, 40 protein" and done, as fast as possible, minimum clicks, minimum wait/lag. You can also use it to track anything you want: your cat's weight, pushups, blood glucose, the last time you changed a filter. A tracker is either a daily total, which adds entries up over the day and starts again at the day boundary, or a measurement, which is a standalone reading. Trackers you log at the same time share a group, so one sheet takes both numbers at once. The + opens whatever you logged last, with the number pad already up. You can name what you logged — the food, not the tracker — and then log it again later with one tap. The time defaults to now and is tappable, so you can log dinner the next morning. History holds everything you have logged, grouped by day and searchable by name. Graphs draw daily totals as bars and measurements as a line with a moving average, over a week, a month, a year, or all of it. Export the lot as JSON or CSV, and import it back. What it does not do: no ads, no subscription, no pro tier, no account, no server, no analytics, no streaks, no badges, no notifications. The app collects no data. It contains no networking code at all, so nothing you type into it can leave your phone by itself, and it asks for no permissions — not the camera, not your health data, not notifications. The whole app is open source under the MIT licence. You can read it, build it, or ship your own: https://github.com/novoselov-ab/boring-tracker My goal with it is to behave like a built-in iOS app (e.g. the calculator). It is boring, but does its job, hence the name.
