Multi is a habit tracker, to-do list, workout tracker, and expense tracker in one app. Your tasks, habits, workouts, reminders, and spending are all part of the same day. Multi gives them one simple place to live, without making you jump between four different apps. ADD THINGS YOUR WAY Adding something takes one simple motion. Type it or say it out loud. Pull the line up to turn it into a repeating habit. Pull it down and add an amount to make it an expense. Do both for recurring expenses like rent or subscriptions. No complicated menus. No endless setup. TASKS, HABITS & REMINDERS Keep your tasks, habits, and reminders together in one list. Set reminders once, daily, weekly, on specific days, or multiple times a day. Multi works around your schedule instead of forcing everything into the same routine. You can also speak several things at once. Multi separates them into individual items and lets you review everything before saving. HABIT TRACKING THAT FEELS DIFFERENT Instead of another grid of checkboxes, Multi shows your habit history as a wave. Peaks are the days you showed up. Flat sections are the days you missed. Over time, you can see the rhythm of your habit instead of obsessing over a streak. A yearly dot calendar gives you another simple way to see your consistency and notice patterns over time. WORKOUT TRACKER Create your training plan and log workouts set by set. Your workouts and progress stay alongside the rest of your day, and the Apple Watch app lets you log sets without reaching for your phone. EXPENSE TRACKER Add spending directly to your list and track each expense in its own currency. Scan a receipt and Multi can read the total for you. You review the amount before anything is saved. Set a monthly budget and get an alert when your spending crosses the limit you chose. You can also attach photos or PDFs to expenses when you need to keep receipts or other proof. ON YOUR IPHONE, WATCH & HOME SCREEN Use widgets to see your day from the Home Screen. Use the Apple Watch app to check your day and log workouts from your wrist. Use Siri to quickly add or complete items with your voice. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account is required to use Multi. Your data stays on your device unless you choose to enable iCloud sync. Sync uses your Apple account so your information can stay up to date across your devices. There is no ad tracking or data broker. You can export your data as CSV or JSON whenever you want. ONE SIMPLE VISUAL LANGUAGE Multi is built around a line. A flat line is a task. A wave is a habit. A doubled line represents money. The same idea runs through the app, from adding something new to the icon, widgets, and the way your information is displayed. FREE TO START Tasks are unlimited for free. The free plan also includes up to 3 habits, 10 expenses, and 5 reminders. Multi Pro unlocks more habits, expenses, and reminders, along with 8 color themes and matching app icons. You can try everything with a two-week free trial before deciding if Pro is for you. Whether you want to build better habits, manage your to-do list, track workouts, stay on top of spending, or simply keep your day organized, Multi gives you one place to do it all. SUBSCRIPTION TERMS Payment is charged to your Apple Account at purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the current period ends.
