When it's useful

• An urge arrives

  Press the button and the timer starts. The few minutes of waiting are the coping, and they become the record at the same time.

• The day a streak breaks

  It never shows "0 days" — just "from today". Your personal best stays, and you can correct the start date afterwards.

• You want to know how long to wait

  Not a borrowed number: the median measured from your own records.

What it does

Recording is the copingPress when it arrives, press again when it passes. Watching the timer run is itself the practice of letting an urge go by.Never back to zeroStreak days are counted, but a break never prints 0. Your best survives even deleting every record, and the start date stays editable.What is established, and what is notWeak evidence and retracted papers are listed at the same size as the solid findings, not hidden below them.

Common friction, and how it's solved

• "One slip resets the counter to zero, and that is where the motivation goes"

  →

  A broken streak just reads "from today". Your best never drops — the only thing lost is the current count.

• ""Urges pass in 15 to 20 minutes" — but does that apply to you?"

  →

  That figure cannot be traced to a primary study. So the app measures the median from your own records instead.

• "A habit app on the home screen tells everyone around you what it is for"

  →

  Neither the name nor the icon reveals the subject. The widget and the Apple Watch face show only an unlabeled number.
