Kadō
A privacy-first habit tracker for iPhone and iPad

Kadō is a free, open-source habit tracker for iPhone and iPad that replaces fragile streaks with an exponential moving average score, so missing a single day doesn't erase progress. It is fully offline-first with no account, no analytics, and no third-party SDKs; optional iCloud sync uses Apple's private CloudKit container. The app is built natively with SwiftUI and supports widgets, reminders, flexible schedules, and multiple habit types.
Kadō tracks habits using an exponential moving average score stored locally on-device, with optional iCloud sync through Apple's private CloudKit container and no server-side infrastructure.
