Getting started

What happens when I first open INHABIT?

You choose a language, then answer a few short questions: your name, where you are in life, what you’re becoming, and which of the five dimensions matter most right now. INHABIT proposes a starting set of practices. Keep the ones that feel right. That’s it. There is no account to create.

Can I change my answers later?

Yes. Practices, dimensions, and life commitments can all be changed from the Practices and Settings tabs.

Practices

How do I complete a practice?

On Today, tap the practice. Counter practices let you add to a count; timed practices have a Start button. Partial effort is recorded as partial, never as a failure.

What if I miss a day?

Nothing is taken away. A missed day is a state, not a punishment. Your Growth Capital never decreases, and your Future Self never un-builds what you’ve made. The interior light may read quieter after a long absence and returns quickly when you do.

How do I add, remove, or archive a practice?

Go to Practices, open a dimension, and choose from the library. Removing a practice archives it: your history and Growth Capital stay.

Growth Capital and milestones

What is Growth Capital?

The accumulated record of the practice you’ve actually done. Each completed practice adds an amount that reflects its weight; partial completions add proportionally. It is not points, XP, or a currency. You never spend it, and it only goes up.

What are the milestones?

Beginning, Emerging, Forming, Grounded, Enduring. They describe a state of development, not a level. Crossing one changes the word on your Progress screen quietly. There is no celebration and nothing to unlock.

Your Future Self

What is the form on the Today screen?

Your Future Self: a single abstract form that slowly takes on the character of the life you practice. It is not a pet and does not need feeding. It becomes more resolved as your Growth Capital accumulates, over months rather than days.

Tomorrow

Where is the Tomorrow screen?

Open it from the Plan tomorrow card on Today. It isn’t a tab. Set your wake and sleep times once, then place practices at the times that suit you, around any life commitments you’ve added.

Reminders

How do reminders work?

Turn them on in Settings. Reminders are scheduled locally on your phone and require iOS 16.4 or later.

Your data

Where is my data stored?

On your device only. INHABIT has no account system and no server that holds your data. See the Privacy Policy for the full picture.

How do I export or delete my data?

Both are in Settings. Export saves a file to your device. Start Over erases everything INHABIT has stored and can’t be undone.

Will my data move to a new phone?

Only through your own device backup and restore (for example, iCloud Backup). INHABIT itself doesn’t sync between devices in version 1.
