How I turned my Apple Watch into a habit tracker using Shortcuts?
How I made a one-tap thought tracker from my Apple Watch with Automations from Shortcuts with no “Ask Before Running”
I wanted to have a physical habit tracker.
When I would make an action, I would use a tracker to keep a record of it. I would then check how many times I performed an activity at the end of the day.
I wanted to use my Apple Watch since it is an item that is always on my wrist and easy to reach.
To be more precise, I wanted to develop a thought tracker. The use case was as:
💠When a specific thought crossed my mind — I would tap on my watch screen and add it to the log. In the end, I can see how many times per day I have a specific thought.
All right. Where shall I start?
As a true IT product manager, I first decided to make a list of requirements for this small project.
End product: App that is compatible with Apple Watch that could be used as a tracker.
Requirements:
- App can be added to the face of the Apple Watch
- App adds an entry to a database
