Description
Accountability Partner turns "I'll do it this month" into something you actually finish - with a small circle of people who see your progress and cheer you on.
YOUR DAY, FIRST
- Today shows what needs you today -check-ins you haven't done, habits still open, goals due - and what's coming up or falling behind.
- One tap checks in, ticks a habit, or logs pages read. A 10 PM last call names anything still open before the day resets.
GOALS THAT FIT YOUR LIFE

- A number to hit, a checklist to work through, or a habit to repeat - daily, weekly, or monthly.
- Start from a template ("Gym 3× a week", "Read every day" with optional pages a day) or build your own.
- Break a big goal into steps with one tap.
- Reminders at the time you choose, and a month-end recap that shows your score, how it's counted, and lets you carry forward or let go of what's unfinished.
YOUR CIRCLE KEEPS YOU HONEST
- Create a circle and invite friends with a code.
- Share a goal and your circle sees how it's going. If it falls behind, you get a reminder and your circle gets a prompt to reach out - at 6 PM their time.
- Nudge a friend with a message, wave hello, and praise a win - praise arrives as a card when they open the app.
- Your Activity gathers everything from your circles in one place; nudges stay private between the two of you.
CHALLENGES
- Run challenges together: a daily check-in streak or a race to a total, with live standings and a winner.
- Moments surface the wins, overtakes and streaks worth seeing, then get out of the way.
A SHIELD FOR DISTRACTIONS
- Pick the apps that pull you away and a daily limit. When you cross it, a shield appears - in your chosen tone (Blunt, Firm, or Hype) - with your own goals as the reason to close it.
- Choose to stay and your circle sees it; lock back up any time, and friends can ask you to.
- Uses Apple's Screen Time framework on your own device only. We never see which apps you use or what you do in them.
BUILT FOR FOLLOW-THROUGH, NOT FOR SCROLLING
- Sign in with Apple. No ads, no tracking.
- Follows your phone's light or dark mode.
- Delete your account and everything with it at any time.
Accountability Partner is free during our launch period.
