Overview
A calm habit app that helps users notice their habits (e.g. sugar and junk food) through daily check-ins, soft streaks, and emotional feedback. Clean minimal design, non-judgmental language, and one primary action per screen. Live on web and available on the Play Store.
Problem
Many people want to notice and shift habits (like sugar or junk food) but are put off by judgmental or gamified apps that add pressure.
Solution
An awareness-first app that prioritizes elegance, calmness, and emotional safety—daily check-ins, soft streaks, and supportive reflections without scores or shame.
Key Features
Daily check-in — simple Yes/No questions about habits; zero distractions, centered layout
Reflection — gentle, non-judgmental messages after check-in; focus on awareness and honesty
Soft streak — days checked in (not “perfect days”); gentle display, no pressure
Weekly summary — text-based insights, no charts; gentle pattern observations
Elegance and calm — minimal design, soft colors, emotional safety
