Habits don't break.
Streaks do.

Cadence tracks your consistency as a rate over a moving 14-day window — 11 of last 14. A flowing seismograph, not a chain of beads. Missing a day is information, not failure.

Rate, not streaks. Always.

Every design decision in Cadence follows a single rule: no streak vocabulary, anywhere. What you get instead is a calm, continuous picture of your habits over time.

The seismograph

Your windowed rate rendered as a single flowing curve. It rises when you're consistent, dips when you drift, never resets. The shape of your habit over time.

14-day window

Cadence tracks "11 of last 14" — not a count of consecutive days. The window rolls forward continuously, so one missed day shifts your rate by a fraction, not to zero.

Year view

A 365-day seismograph spanning your whole year. Every habit, stacked. A continuous flowing artefact of your year — not a grid of coloured squares.

Widgets

Small, medium, and large home-screen widgets, plus a Lock Screen complication. Each shows your rate, trend, and a miniature seismograph. Always glanceable.

Apple Watch

Check in directly from your wrist. The watch shows your habit list with a mini seismograph and trend dot for each. Two complications for Pro users.

Calm reminders

Optional reminders that show the habit name and nothing else. No "you missed yesterday." No pressure. Automatically suppressed if you've already checked in.

Calm by design.

The habit list, a habit in detail, the year view, your home screen, and Apple Watch — all atmospheric, none of it gamified.

Free to start. Pro when you're ready.

Five habits is a real, working implementation of the philosophy — enough to feel the difference before you decide to go further.

The philosophy

Cadence is the explicit refusal of streak-based tracking. No chains, no badges, no red broken-streak indicators, no celebrations. The whole product — palette, motion, voice — extends the same calm philosophy.

No streak counters. Anywhere. Ever.

Missing a day shifts your rate slightly. It does not reset anything.

Trend states are "rising", "holding", "drifting" — never red, never a grade.

The lifetime tier exists because a habit tracker shouldn't nag you with recurring billing. Pay once. No pressure.

Free vs Pro

The core experience is free and fully functional. Pro is for when you want the full picture — your whole year, on every device.
