About GoodHabits 3.0
GoodHabits 3.0 is an iOS habit-tracking tool designed to help users build lasting routines by focusing on a single habit at a time. Breaking away from the popular 21-day myth, GoodHabits utilizes University College London research which shows that a median of 66 days is actually required for a new behavior to become automatic.
Unlike traditional habit trackers that turn into overwhelming dashboards highlighting your failures, GoodHabits is built with real life in mind. Featuring a unique grace day system, if you happen to miss a day, you can still log it until the end of the next one. This human-centric design acknowledges that you are a person, not just a streak.

About Glimps
Glimps is an innovative, gamified iOS exploration app that turns the real world into an interactive fog-of-war map. Designed to encourage physical activity and urban discovery, the app starts with the world covered in fog, which users lift by physically walking through locations.
Offering a unique blend of fitness tracking, travel logging, and artificial intelligence, Glimps allows users to claim landmarks by standing near them for 30 seconds, stamp cities into a digital travel passport, and watch their overall exploration percentage climb. With support for 3,800 landmarks across 85 cities, explorers can compete on leaderboards, follow community walking routes, and utilize Glimps AI to get personalized recommendations on where to walk next.
To ensure fair play and authentic engagement, every scored step is GPS-verified server-side, preventing users from faking progress from the couch. Once you have uncovered an area, you can easily share your achievements using a customized "City Wrapped" card of your mapped journey. Glimps is available for free on iPhone.
