๐Ÿšจ Peat is OUT NOW ๐Ÿšจ

I'm not gonna lie, friends. This is just a tiny app that does one single thing very well.

I wasn't happy with the current state of habit tracker apps on the App Store and set out to get rid of all of the stuff nobody really needs while providing a great experience for what's actually important.

It's the digital version of a tally sheet. And tally sheets are what I found work best when you try to build a habit.

@marcel Looks great, congratulations! ๐Ÿ™‚

One thing I miss in most habit trackers is the ability to track things which occur more than once a day โ€” like walking every hour, or remembering to drink water. But thatโ€™s probably a very niche requirement โ€ฆ.

@f You can add as many completions to a day as you want!

@marcel loving it so far! One request: it would be cool if the calendar was configurable; it breaks my brain to look at a calendar with a week that starts on Monday.

I wonder if this is a device setting you can read so you can do whatever the user is used to by default?

@calebhailey Haha, thatโ€™s something I didnโ€™t even think about. Iโ€™ll have a look at it!

Even though Iโ€™m of the strong opinion that a week obviously starts on Monday, since Sunday is part of the weekEND. ๐Ÿ˜ค

@marcel that's also how I *think* about the week as well, but here in the US the standard visualization always displays the week as starting with Sunday.

Interesting reading on this! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Week

@marcel @calebhailey To US reasoning, "weekend" works in the same way as "bookend.โ€

@marcel if you do enough digging you'll eventually get into the etymology of the names of the days themselves, which have religious origins. It was hard to find a good reference. This Wikipedia page was the simplest.

Also dig around in Google Calendar settings ( I looked there because Google typically does its research on these sorts of internationalization things). It turns out Google Calendar only offers three possible days as the first day of the week: Saturday, Sunday, or Monday.
