It is one honest word a day. The app asks "How are you today?" and you choose one: Heavy, Shaky, Calmer, Steady or Strong. It is saved privately to your account and never shown in the community.
Why one word
A word takes ten seconds, so it is easy to keep. Over weeks, the words become a quiet record of how the climb really went, the steep days included. Tap a day on the trail in Progress to see the word you chose.
What it is not
It is not a score, and there is no wrong answer. Heavy is as useful as Strong. Nothing about it changes your day count.
Making it a habit
•
Turn on the Daily check-in reminder in Settings and pick a time.
•
Mornings or evenings both work. Pick whichever you can keep.
•
On a heavy day, the check-in can be the one thing you do. That counts.
Check-ins count toward a few badges over time, but that is a side effect. The honest word is the point.
