Mark a habit, and a leaf grows. Miss a day, and a leaf falls; miss days in a row, and more fall. You can undo today until midnight.
You start with who you want to be — “i am someone who …”, for example “takes care of my body” — and that identity grows out of the trunk. The habits that get you there grow on it as branches. Each day, swipe a habit’s card right to mark it, or left for “not today”.
Every marked day adds a leaf to the habit’s branch. Missed days in a row cost more: the 1st drops 1 leaf, the 2nd drops 2, the 3rd and every one after it drops 3, and one marked day stops the run. When a branch has 66 leaves at once, a green fruit grows on it; it turns gold the day you root the habit.
After midnight a day stays marked or missed, and nothing changes it. Branches never get shorter. A habit you cut stays on the tree as a stub, as thick as the branch had grown.
Nothing to sign up for. “Erase the tree” takes the online copy and the public page with it.
Pro is bought once, not every month. Free keeps one identity with five habits.
A few habits at a time, on purpose: the tree stays about who you are becoming, not a to-do list.
When a habit is yours, root it. The fruit turns gold and the tree keeps it, whatever comes after.
Free: 1 identity with 5 habits. Pro is a one-time purchase, not a subscription: up to 4 identities, the time machine, nature sounds and music that keep playing after you leave the app, and pictures and films without the watermark.
RIPEN is not in the stores yet. Leave your email and you get one message the day it is out — then the whole list is deleted. There is no second email, and the address is used for nothing else.
