nudge: a free daily real-world challenge app that gets you off your phone

nudge: a free daily real-world challenge app that gets you off your phone

"nudge." sends you one small real-world challenge every day. Talk to a stranger. Eat lunch without your phone. Go somewhere you've never been within 30 minutes of where you are. Leave an honest review for a place you love. Small things but the kind that make a day feel like it actually happened.

I built it because I kept noticing that myself and many of my friends go whole weeks without doing anything new. "nudge." is the reminder and the excuse.

Free no cost to download or use. There's an optional "nudge. Pass" ($2.99/month or $19.99/year) that adds rain checks, challenge choices, streak shields, and occasional special challenges, but the core app is completely free and always will be.

nudge: a daily real-world challenge app for people who want to actually do things

I built nudge. because I kept noticing that myself and most of the people I know go whole weeks without doing anything new. Not because we don't want to but just because nothing pushed us to. "nudge." sends you one small real-world challenge a day: talk to a stranger, eat lunch without your phone, take a new way home, leave a honest review for a place you love. Small things, but the kind that make a day feel like it actually happened.

It's live on the App Store now with a small but real community using it daily.

My questions for this community:

  1. How do you think about retention for an app where the whole point is to get people off their phones? The value is in the real world, not in the app, which makes engagement metrics weird to optimize for.
  2. What's worked for you in early community building when your user base is small but genuinely active?

App is free on the Apple App Store. You can learn more and find the direct link at www.nudgeme.today.
