RIPEN

The RIPEN homepage

RIPEN is a habit tracker built on the idea from James Clear's Atomic Habits that a habit is not only something you do but who you become. You start with who you want to be, then add habits that get you there, and the app draws them as one tree. Each day you mark a habit by swiping its card right, and every marked day adds a leaf to the habit's branch. Missing days causes leaves to fall in escalating amounts. When a branch has 66 leaves at once, a green fruit grows on it; it turns gold when you root the habit. The tree keeps all your progress permanently: branches never get shorter, and a habit you cut stays on the tree as a stub showing how large it had grown. There is no account to sign up for, no analytics, and no subscription. The free version includes one identity with five habits, while a one-time Pro purchase offers up to four identities, a time machine showing your tree at any time of day or weather, nature sounds and music, unwatermarked pictures and films, and a star map overlay.
