The streak broke. So did the flow.

It wasn't that I forgot. I remembered, just a little too late.

Right before midnight, I opened the app to log my progress. But the screen just sat there, trying to connect. No internet. No log. No streak.

It sounds small, but if you've ever built a habit one day at a time, you know what a streak can mean. It's not just numbers. It's proof. And losing it? That stings.

That moment made one thing very clear: apps that help you grow should work with you, not against you, especially when the internet doesn't cooperate.

So let's build something better.

"Hey… why does this screen freeze every time I scroll too fast?"

That's what my QA pinged me at 11:30 AM on a perfectly normal Tuesday.

I brushed it off. "Probably a one-off," I thought.

But then the bug reports started trickling in:

• "The app slows down after using it for a while."
• "Navigation feels laggy."
• "Sometimes it just… dies."

That's when the panic set in.
