Real help from the person who made Tend. Most questions get a reply within a day or two.
Do I need an account?
No. Tend never asks you to sign up. Your routines live on your device.
Where is my data stored?
On your phone. Tend has no server and collects nothing. With Tend Plus, routines can sync across your devices through your own private iCloud. I never see them.
What's free, and what's in Tend Plus?
The daily check-in, reminders, the visual timeline, mood check-ins, widgets, sub-steps, the full progress view, and up to three routines are free forever. Tend Plus is a one-time unlock for unlimited routines, one-off tasks just for today, focus sessions, multiple reminders per routine, private iCloud sync, and optional calendar sync. No subscription.
I bought Tend Plus but it's not unlocked on my other device.
Open Settings in Tend and tap Restore Purchases. A fresh purchase also enables iCloud sync on the next launch.
Why are there no streaks?
On purpose. Streaks punish the people most likely to miss a day. Tend shows gentle progress over time instead. Missing a day isn't a failure.
How do I add the widget?
Long-press your Home Screen → tap + → search "Tend" → add the Today's Routines widget. Open the app once first so it has today's data.
Tend collects no data and uses no tracking. Read the full policy here: Privacy Policy.
