One leap
at a time.

On the Yellow River there is a waterfall called the Dragon Gate. The old story says that a carp who makes it up the falls turns into a dragon. The old story says a carp who makes it up the Dragon Gate falls turns into a dragon.

Thousands of carp try. Most get swept back down.

Eight areas in one app.

Home shows every area on a single screen, with how today is going in each. You can log from there too: every tile has its own +.

    They jump, fall back and jump again.

    The areas

    Everything you want to keep track of.

    Pick one to watch it in the app

    Bruised scales, tired fins. They keep going.

    Stats

    Watch your days turn into a picture.

    Every area has a Stats tab, and the Calendar puts them side by side. Colour the year by an area or a goal. At the end, save it as a poster. The numbers are worked out on your phone.

      Then one of them clears the gate.

      Tutorial

      Karl shows you around.

      Karl is the koi from the app icon. In 103 short lessons he points at the real screen and waits for you to tap. Most lessons take a minute, and you can start one from the Guide whenever you like.

        And just like that, it is no longer just a fish.

        The whole picture

        A few taps a day. A year later, this.

        Every day you log something becomes a square, in the colour of its area. At the end of the year the app turns them into a poster.

        Every dragon started out as a carp that kept jumping.

        Start your leap.

        Eight areas

        One archive for your whole day.

        Each area is a full app of its own. They share one calendar, so a run, a meal and a journal entry from the same day turn up together.

        Personalisation

        Make it look like yours.

        This is the real Home screen of the app, with every setting it has. Change the look, take parts off the page, give an area a new colour. Home follows every tap.

          Come in early.

          A small group is testing sync and sharing right now. Everything you log stays on your device either way – an invite key only opens an account of your own.

          1. Try the demo

            The whole app with a demo account, right in your browser. Nothing needs a key, and nothing you try there leaves the tab.

            Open the demo
          2. Each key works once. Type it here, or simply open the link you got.

            The key goes straight to the app. This page never sends it anywhere.

          3. Ask for an invite

            A line about you is enough. We answer with a key – check back with your code, or leave an e-mail address.
