SteadyPulse — a quiet note of how the day went

Where it came from

The same message kept arriving from readers of Steady Living: I know the morning light thing helps, I just can't tell you whether I did it on Tuesday. That's the real gap. Not knowledge — visibility. The day ends and the details are gone by Thursday. SteadyPulse exists to hold onto them long enough that a pattern can show up.

What you actually do with it

• Mark the moment. Got outside. Ate. Walked. Started winding down. Each one is a tap, and the time comes along with it.
• One nudge, your hour. You pick when. It asks once. Then it's quiet until tomorrow.
• Look at the week sideways. Seven days laid out next to each other. Sometimes it's obvious — the two rough days were the two you never went outside before noon. Sometimes it isn't, and that's information too.

What it deliberately doesn't do

It doesn't count anything about your body. It doesn't rank your week against last week or against anyone else's. It doesn't send a guilt notification when you miss a day, because missing days is what real weeks look like and an app that punishes you for Tuesday won't survive to Friday.

What it is not

SteadyPulse is not a medical device, not a diagnostic tool, and not a source of health advice. It records what you tell it and shows it back to you. Any decision about your health belongs with you and a qualified professional.
