Hold to log
Done is not a checkbox. Logging a day is a press-and-hold — long enough to mean it. Release early and nothing counts. The streak only moves when your thumb commits.
Habit & quit tracker · iOS
One habit. Every single day.
Gentle habit apps are too easy to ignore. Spurly isn’t. Commit to one thing and you get one notification a day, written like a text — Coach, Tough Love, or Bully — against your record, never repeated. Hold to log. Miss, and you’ll hear about it.One notification a day. Written like a text, against your record.

Coach
Gym time! The couch thinks you're staying in. Break its heart.
Tough Loveselected
You said you'd read tonight. The book is watching you scroll. Awkward.
Bully
Still scrolling? The gym is telling people you retired. Go correct them.
what the bird got right
No green bird. Just a streak you can’t lie to.A streak you can’t lie to.
Duolingo hooked half a billion people on a streak — for a language they can’t speak a word of. The trick works. The target’s wrong.
Spurly points it at the thing you’ve sworn you’ll start tomorrow — every tomorrow, for years. Same streak. One that finally counts.
No bird. Just me,
and your record.
the daily text
One message a day. Written like a person.
Not a template with your name pasted in. Written fresh each morning against your actual record — it remembers its last 14 texts, never repeats itself, and follows hard rules it can’t break. You see exactly what it reads.
It remembers its last 14 texts and never repeats itself.
You pick when the notification lands — after work, midday, right after dinner. One text, at your hour. You read it once, and it’s usually right.
on the lock screen
Quitting something? It watches the whole window.
Start a session and a live countdown sits on your lock screen. There’s one way out early — a button that says A live countdown on your lock screen. One way out: I FOLDED.
Giving up becomes a confession instead of an absence. Pressing it costs more than skipping ever did.
the app lock
When the clock runs, your apps don’t.
Start a session and your picked apps lock — built on Apple’s Screen Time, During a session, your apps lock — everything stays off until the clock hits zero, except what you spare.
Emergency? Stop the clock and everything unlocks, instantly.
you set the heat
Coach. Tough Love. Bully. Your call.
Three registers, differentiated by voice, not color. Coach keeps it level. Tough Love sharpens it. Bully says what your friends are already thinking.

02the engine
It doesn’t remind you. It remembers you.
Every morning it reads your whole record — streak, personal best, when you last missed, what it has already said — then writes one line, fresh, in the tone you chose. A lot goes in. One text comes out.

One mercy a week
Miss a day and the streak breaks. Except once a week, Spurly covers you — automatic, and it tells you it happened. One freeze, no banking, never negotiated.Covers you once a week — and tells you.

The fold has a memory
Press I FOLDED and it’s over — no lecture, the countdown just ends. But the fold lands on your record, and the engine reads that record every morning: your last miss, the weekday it happened, how long ago. Fold on a Tuesday. Some Tuesday it comes back up.Fold on a Tuesday and some Tuesday it comes back up.
04the habits
One habit. The one you keep dodging.
Spurly runs one habit at a time — build one or quit one. Not a dashboard of fifty trackers you’ll abandon by Friday; just the one that’s actually yours. A sample of what you could aim it at:Build one or quit one.
Not on the list? Name it.
I’ll hold you to it.
