TEN SKILLS AT LAUNCH

Add what you need. Leave out the rest.

MONEY

See where it goes.

Log expenses, income and transfers in seconds. Tag anything, add your own currencies, and break spending down by category or tag. Import from your bank with a guided mapper.

How to track spending without linking your bank
Shadowkit Money’s page on Home: a net balance of £6,684.20 with Expense, Income and Transfer, the Overview and Ledger tabs, and two accounts.

DATA

Know your connection.

Live download and upload speed, today split between mobile and Wi-Fi, and 90 days of history. It can sit quietly in your status bar. Android only.

How to check mobile data usage on Android
Shadowkit Data’s page: live download 2.6 MB/s and upload 180 KB/s on WiFi, the status-bar switch, today’s 2.14 GB split between WiFi and mobile, and the last 7 days.

NOTIFY

Reminders in plain words.

Once, daily, weekly or every few hours. Every schedule reads as a sentence, with the next times it will fire, so you never have to guess. On Android, pin your own words to your notifications too.

Reminders in plain words
Shadowkit Notify’s page on Home: Up next with Call Mum at 18:30 today and the reminders after it, then every reminder with its switch.

HABIT

Check it off. Keep the streak.

Every day, specific days or a few times a week, each habit in its own colour. Tap to check in or count, skip a day without breaking your streak, and see your history at a glance.

Habit streaks that don’t punish a day off
Shadowkit Habit’s page on Home: 1 of 4 done today, Drink water in cyan at 5 of 8 with a 12-day streak, Read in violet with a 21-day streak and Workout in amber, each with its history grid in its own colour.

COUNTER

Count anything, one tap.

Cups, laps, pages, people. Every counter is a tile on Counter’s page on Home, with its own minus and plus, so a count is one tap.

What a tally counter app is good for
Shadowkit Counter’s page on Home: tiles for Push-ups 128, Water 5 of 8, Coffee 0 and Pages read 42, each with minus and plus, and a New counter tile.

NOTES

Write it down. Tick it off.

Quick notes and checklists, with the ones you need pinned to the top. Tick a list off right on the page, search them all, and share one as plain text.

Notes and checklists that stay on your phone
Shadowkit Notes’ page: pinned notes first, a Groceries checklist with 3 of 7 ticked and Wi-Fi at the office, then other notes such as Book notes: Deep Work.

JOURNAL

A few lines about your day.

Write what happened and how it felt, as often as you like. A calendar shows the days you wrote and the mood of each.

What makes a journal app private
Shadowkit Journal’s page: How was today? with five mood faces, 3 days in a row and Write about today, then October’s entries.

EVENTS

Count down to what’s next.

Birthdays, trips, appointments and anniversaries, each with the days left and a reminder a week, a day or hours before. Yearly dates roll over by themselves, and a birthday can show the age it turns.

A countdown app for birthdays and trips
Shadowkit Events’ page on Home: next, Sam’s birthday in 2 days, turning 31 on Monday 19 October; then the dentist on 23 October in 6 days, a flight to Rome on 7 November, and Mum and Dad’s 35th anniversary on 22 November.

CAPSULE

A letter to future you.

Write it now and keep it as a draft, or seal it until a day you choose, from a month to years away. Until then not a word of it shows, and on the morning it opens, you’ll hear about it.

How to write a letter to your future self
Shadowkit Capsule’s page on Home: a letter ready to open, To me, a year on, written 17 October 2025, with an Open it button; two sealed letters that open in 23 days and on 3 March 2028; and a draft, Things I want to remember.

SPLIT

Split the bill to the penny.

Evenly, by who had what, or by shares, with the tip shared fairly and every share adding up to the total. Save it, share it as text, and tick people off as they pay you back.

How to split a bill and the tip fairly
Shadowkit Split’s page on Home: 2 open, £185.61 to come back; Dinner at Nonna’s with £80.61 to come and 1 of 3 paid, and Cabin weekend with £105.00 to come and 2 of 3 paid; then, settled, Taxi from the airport and Sam’s birthday drinks.

GEMS

A gem for every good week.

Use a skill on most days of a week and it earns a gem in its own colour. Gems can’t be bought, and the ones you earn are yours to keep.

  • Habit
  • Money
  • Journal
  • Counter
  • Notes
  • WeeklyUse a skill on most days of a week.
  • MonthlyThree weekly gems in a month, in the same skill.
  • RareMilestones, like your 100th entry or 500th check-in.

Free, in Habit, Money, Journal, Counter and Notes. Turn off the skills you don’t use, and keep every gem you earned.

Questions

Do I need an account?

No. Open the app and start. Everything stays on your phone.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Every skill works without a connection.

Can I keep work and personal separate?

Yes. Profiles each have their own data, and you can switch in one tap.

Which skills are included?

Money, Data, Notify, Habit, Counter, Notes, Journal, Events, Capsule and Split at launch, with more to follow. Data is on Android only.

How does Home work?

Home is a row of pages you swipe between. Today shows every skill at a glance, one line each, and each skill has its own page that does everything. Add or remove skills any time with the + at the end of the row of names at the top.

What are gems?

Something to collect as you go. Use a skill on most days of a week and it earns a gem in its own colour; three in a month earn a monthly gem, and milestones earn rare ones. They are free, can’t be bought, and are kept for good.

When can I get it?

Soon, on iOS and Android. Store links and the QR code go live on launch day.
