I made this small app because I wanted a habit tracker that was not only free, open source and privacy-friendly, but at the same time offer a nice "premium-feeling" experience on iOS.I used amangeldybaiserkeev/TeymiaHabit for a while, but I was not really satisfied with the user experience.Very soon I intend to propose an Apple Watch version.

Could you build this?
Yes A local, privacy-focused iOS habit tracking application relies on standard SwiftUI components, local persistence (CoreData/SwiftData), and standard UIKit animations, which AI coding tools generate reliably.
