Features & Capabilities

X Effect is a beautifully minimal habit tracker based on the proven "Don't Break the Chain" method. Every day you complete your habit, mark an X. Watch your streak grow and build unstoppable momentum.

HOW IT WORKS The X Effect method is simple: commit to a habit for 49 days (7 weeks). Each day you succeed, you draw an X. The visual chain of X's creates powerful motivation, you won't want to break it.
