Meaningful Days — a calm habit & goal companion

What it is

An honest, simple take on habit tracking.

Meaningful Days helps you build routines that move you forward towards your ambitions in small steps every day. These habits can — over time — lead to significant outcomes through the compound effect.

Schedule your habits daily, weekly or monthly and track completion via a simple, straightforward interface.

Goals first

Group habits under your bigger ambitions — health, focus, family — so every check-in has a reason behind it.

Essential or optional

Separate the few things you need from the many things you'd like. Pressure stays on what matters.

Quietly yours

No accounts, no ads, no trackers. Your data stays on your phone. Notifications only if you want them.

How it works

How a
Meaningful Day
comes together.

Pick an ambition, attach a few habits, and start tracking. The walkthrough below gives you an overview how to use the app.

Pick an ambition that matters to you.

Start with something you care about — health, learning, a relationship, a craft. Navigate to the Your Ambitions screen and use the + button to add an ambition for it.

On this screen, you can also:

reorder your ambitions by dragging the cards (the order of habits on the tracking screen will follow this ordering)
archive ambitions when you no longer need them

The Your Ambitions screen, showing a list of ambition cards with icons, titles and progress.

Fill your ambition with life.

You can edit an ambition and add habits to it by tapping the respective card on the Your Ambitions screen.

Add small habits that, if repeated consistently, will help you make progress towards your ambition.

On this screen, you can also:

edit the title and description of this ambition (by tapping on them)
edit the appearance of this ambition and its associated habits (by tapping on the icon)
reorder the habits by dragging the cards (the order of habits on the tracking screen will follow this ordering)
archive habits when you no longer need them

The Edit Ambition screen, with editable title and description and a list of associated habits.

Let the app help you.

If you are unsure how to get started, you can select one of the presets from the dropdown menu when adding a new ambition.

Make sure to tick the checkbox on the last page of the wizard if you also want a set of predefined habits to be added to your ambition automatically.

The Add Ambition wizard, showing a dropdown with preset ambitions to choose from.

Define what you want to track and when.

You can edit a habit by tapping the respective card on the Edit Ambition screen. On this screen, you can:

edit the title and description of the habit (by tapping on them)
define whether you want to track simple completion, a number of repeats, or a duration
specify on which days of the week or month you want to pursue this habit
set an optional reminder for this habit

The Edit Habit screen, with options to choose a tracking type, schedule days and set an optional reminder.

Start tracking your habits.

On the app's Tracking screen, you see a list of all the habits you've scheduled for the selected day. You can track your progress using the completion controls on the right side of the cards:

a single tap increments the count or marks a simple-completion habit as done
a double tap sets the count or time directly to the habit's target value
tapping and dragging up or down adjusts the count or time
for habits where you track time, you can also start a timer by tapping the small play button

The Tracking screen, showing the day's scheduled habits as cards with completion controls on the right.

Small habits, meaningful days.
