Most habit apps rely on streaks. Miss one day, and it resets - which often feels discouraging. Biksie focuses on momentum instead of perfection. It measures your consistency over the last 14 days, where partial effort counts (Yes / Kinda / No). Simple tracking, no red failure states, and a clean interface designed for steady improvement. Currently available on Android, with iOS planned.
@letadas I like the idea, streaks are double edged sword I suppose, the fear of dropping it prevents you from doing that but if you do, the chances of you continuing after are slim. How do you display "momentum"? I think your momentum score should probably be front-and-center.
@janschutte That’s exactly how I experienced streaks motivating at first, but fragile.
Momentum in Biksie is calculated as your consistency over the last 14 days.
Each day, every active activity is scored:
• Done = 1
• Half done = 0.5
• Not done = 0
For each day, we calculate how consistent you were across all activities (0–100%). Then we average those 14 daily percentages into one momentum score.
So it reflects how steady you’ve been recently, not whether you were perfect.
Right now it’s visible on the profile screen. I kept it subtle because I want logging to feel lightweight, but I’m exploring whether it should be more front-and-center.
Curious would seeing that score every day motivate you more, or add pressure?

Hi Tadas 👋
I just explored Biksie — I really like the shift from streaks to momentum. Measuring consistency over 14 days instead of punishing missed days feels psychologically healthier and much more sustainable.
One thing I noticed: the momentum concept is powerful, but new users might benefit from a slightly clearer visual explanation during onboarding to instantly “get” why it’s better than streaks. A small tweak there could make the value click faster.
I’d be happy to put together a mini-audit with 3 actionable suggestions from a UX + behavioral design perspective — would you like me to send it over?
