Onward — Goal & Habit Tracker

Build habits, count what matters, and hit goals by a date. Local-first — optionally synced to your own iCloud. No ads, no tracking. Onward.

Onward is a calm, private, local-first way to build habits and reach goals.

Most trackers only do checkboxes. Onward gives you four ways to track, so it fits how you actually think about progress:

• Daily Habit — the classic streak. Do it, check it, keep the run alive. Flexible frequencies (a few times a week, monthly, quarterly), specific weekdays, rest days that don't break your streak, and quit-habit tracking that counts the days you stay clean.

• Running Total — count something up. Miles, pages, glasses of water, dollars saved. Log it in a couple of taps and watch it add up.

• Target by Date — "read 12 books by December." Onward does the pace math and tells you, honestly, whether you're on track, ahead, or behind — and shows its work.

• Resolution — a one-time goal with no quantity, like "update my will." Track it as a plain checkbox, a percentage, or a checklist of sub-tasks — whichever fits.

INSIGHTS THAT MEAN SOMETHING Your history becomes feedback: current and best-ever streaks, completion rates, an at-a-glance activity heatmap, per-goal trend charts, milestones worth noticing, and a weekly review of how it went.

BUILT TO FIT REAL LIFE • Timed habits and a focus (Pomodoro) timer • Reminders — as many as you need per habit, grouped by time of day • Notes and a mood tag on any entry • A full calendar history you can edit and backfill • Light and dark mode

PRIVATE BY DESIGN Onward is local-first. Your data lives on your device — no account to create, no sign-in, no analytics, no ads, no tracking. iCloud sync across your own devices uses your private iCloud — still no servers of ours. Optional Apple Health import reads a workout only when you tap to import it; nothing is sent anywhere. The App Store privacy label says it plainly: Data Not Collected.

No subscriptions. No noise. Just a quiet tool to help you keep moving onward.
