Built on research. Using proven published behavioural science: SMART goal theory (Locke and Latham), implementation intentions (Gollwitzer, d=0.65 effect size), habit automaticity research (Lally et al., UCL, average 66 days). Every feature cites its source, in plain language.
Section 1
Set Goals Built to Last
Five goal types, each with its own guided setup built around the psychology of goal pursuit. Including the one question research says matters most.
- Five Goal Types: Achievement, Learning, Habit Building, Project, and Wellness. Each type has its own guided setup.
- SMART Planning: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound. Each field comes with a research note explaining why it matters.
- Values-Based Why: goals tied to personal values produce 37% greater persistence. The app asks before you continue.
- Milestones: break any goal into 3 to 7 concrete checkpoints. Each can have its own habit.
- Goal Templates: pre-filled with milestones, SMART criteria, and habit ideas. Ready in seconds.
Section 2
Build Habits the Way Your Brain Works
Five structured steps. Each one walks you through the science of how habits actually form, one piece at a time.
- Concrete Behaviour: "Do 20 push-ups," not "be healthier." Specific, observable actions produce far better follow-through.
- Environmental Cue: a reliable trigger that fires automatically. Environmental cues improve adherence by approximately 58%.
- Implementation Intention: "When [cue], I will [behaviour]." d=0.65 effect size across dozens of studies. More than doubles follow-through. The app generates a suggestion from your cue and habit name.
- Reward Step: a small, immediate reward you'll actually enjoy. Dopamine follows completion; that signal reinforces the habit.
- Custom Schedule and Reminders: daily, specific days, or a custom interval. Notifications are explained up front.
Section 3
Progress That Reflects Reality
A daily dashboard, honest analytics, a 2-minute weekly review, and a habit automaticity bar built on the actual Lally et al. research — the 66-day average, with a range of 18 to 254 days depending on the person.
- Today View: every habit due today, a completion ring, and your implementation intention right where you need it.
- 66-Day Progress Bar: tracks each habit against the real automaticity window from Lally et al. (range: 18 to 254 days). Turns green when you cross the threshold.
- Activity Heatmap: 14 weeks of completion data in one view. Spot patterns, notice strong weeks.
- Per-Habit Analytics: current streak, 30-day completion rate, automaticity progress, and your best time of day once there's enough data.
- Weekly Review: a structured 2-minute Sunday reflection that reactivates your implementation intentions. Measurably improves the following week.
- Home Screen Widget: tick off habits without opening the app.
