A calm way to remember when you last did something. Changing the sheets, watering a plant, washing the car, replacing a toothbrush, or cleaning an air filter. Keep occasional routines in view without turning them into another demanding habit. SEE ELAPSED TIME AT A GLANCE Since puts the time since your last record front and center. When you are done, tap "Just did it." If it was a mistake, undo it immediately. 8 DISPLAY STYLES Choose Ring, Cards, Timeline, Compact, Grid, Focus, Bars, or Graph. The same records can be spacious, detailed, chronological, or compact—whatever suits the moment. 17 THEMES, INCLUDING GLASS Choose from 17 themes such as Minimal, Soft, Dark, Paper, Sakura, Indigo, Glass, and Night Glass. Go bright with Clear Glass or settle into a quieter nighttime look. Custom Glass can place your own photo behind the translucent cards. A DIFFERENT LOOK FOR LIGHT AND DARK MODE Set separate themes for your iPhone's Light and Dark appearances. Since can shift naturally from morning to night. ADD A NOTE WHEN YOU RECORD Capture context such as "partly done" or "continue here next time." You can also add a date you missed or delete an incorrect record.

Steady Heroes turns everyday routines into something a child can see, follow, and finish at their own pace. Each "hero" gets their own visual routine, broken into simple steps. Tap through them one at a time, with an optional focus timer to help stay on track - and no penalty if it runs out. When things feel like too much, the built-in calm break offers a no-pressure pause with its own gentle timer. Finished steps earn stars, which can be spent on a reward menu you set up together. If you'd rather track a real allowance, turn on money mode and Steady Heroes will work out what each step is worth. Built for families raising neurodivergent kids, anxious kids, or anyone who does better with structure - but flexible enough for any household that wants routines without a fight. FEATURES - Step-by-step visual routines for each hero - Optional focus timer, never punitive if it runs out - Calm break with its own timer, no time limit required - Star rewards with a fully customizable reward menu - Optional cash allowance tracking - Face ID / Touch ID to confirm a parent is approving a step - Reduce motion setting for sensory sensitivity - One gentle daily reminder - nothing pushy PRIVATE BY DESIGN Steady Heroes works entirely on your device. There's no account, no server, no ads, and no analytics. Everything you enter stays with you - see our full privacy policy for details. Steady Heroes is a support tool, not a substitute for professional therapy or medical advice.
