48 half hours. What you did, not what you think you did. One tap every 30 minutes, no timer to start. By evening, you know where your hours went: white for what paid you back, hatched for what cost you.
You work alone. Nobody looks over your shoulder, and it's easy to lie to yourself. You see your screen time, you know your effort isn't in the right place, but you have no real record of your day. Emails, meetings, scrolling, two or three real wins... it all blurs together. You can't fix what you can't see.
Halff is that audit. By evening, your day sits in front of you: every half hour either paid you back, or cost you.
Halff doesn't just measure, it judges. Every half hour has a side. By evening, a score out of 100, your last 30 days as squares, the week as candles. And touches of green and red to tell you whether you did better than yesterday.
Toggl, Clockify, RescueTime: you ran them for three days, then forgot. Halff asks you to start nothing. Here is all it asks:
Every 30 minutes, Halff asks what you just did. One tap on a category, scored. Nothing to start, nothing to stop. No timer, no forgetting, no mental load. Only between your two hours, the ones you choose. Never at night.
A tracker says how much. Halff says whether it was worth it: deep work, sport, reading pay you back. Scrolling, aimless YouTube cost you. You decide, and you can change your mind.
A score out of 100, every day. It rises when your half hours pay you back, it drops when they cost you. You'll finally be able to answer: where did my day go?
No levels, no badges. You score your day, your streak goes on. Skip a day, it starts over, and you see it. It's simple, and that's exactly why it holds. The streak counts the days in a row you kept it up.
Once sleep is taken out, you have about thirty left to play. Each one is a choice. Lose six a day, and that's 3 hours. 21 hours a week. Over 1,000 hours a year. Halff makes them visible. And what you see, you can change. 48 boxes doesn't mean 48 chores: Halff keeps count, you just tap.
One account, one history. You score where you are, you read the report where you like.
The nudge comes as a notification. You score with a tap, or drag your finger across several half hours to paint them at once. Eighteen widgets, three of them on the lock screen.
Halff lives attached to the notch, in pure black. At rest it shows the time, your score and your streak. On the half hour it opens with four categories. One click or one shortcut, it closes.

"I thought I worked 10 hours a day. Halff showed me 5 hours of real value. It stings, but two weeks later I'm at 7 hours of deep work."
"The 30-minute nudge, I thought it would drive me mad. It's the opposite: one tap, 2 seconds, it's gone. The only tracker I've kept for more than a week."
"My first report: 3 hours of scrolling in a day. Seeing it hatched, to the half hour, is something else. I got my evenings back."
"I open the report every evening like my sports stats. Days at 80 have become a game. My wife started too."
"Zero setup, zero timer to start. It asks, I tap, done. 48 half hours scored without thinking about it."
"I got it for work, I keep it for life. Seeing 'family' fill my weekends in white is worth every cent."

Your half hours live on your device. With your account, they sync encrypted between iPhone, Mac and web, visible to you alone. Never sold, never ads. On the site, traffic is measured without cookies, anonymously.
Yes. Open the iPhone app signed in to your account: your purchase attaches by itself. Then sign in on Mac or on the web with the same account, everything opens.
No big deal. On iPhone, you drag your finger across the missed half hours and they paint at once. On Mac and web, a mouse drag.
The web dashboard works everywhere. The native app exists on iPhone (App Store) and on Mac. Your account follows, your data too.
In an hour, attention drifts, you multitask without noticing, and you rationalise: "I worked the whole hour", when really 25 minutes were productive. 30 minutes is the compromise: short enough to correct fast, long enough to produce, simple enough to repeat all day.
Yes. Simply knowing you'll record what you do increases attention, discipline and the consistency between intentions and actions. It's the self-monitoring effect, documented in behavioural psychology (Herren, 1989: productivity gains held 10 months later). What gets measured gets fixed.
Because your day doesn't need a rainbow to be readable. A full box paid you back. A hatched box cost you. Green and red show up for one thing only: better or worse than yesterday.
Today, your half hours evaporate without a trace. In a week, you'll know exactly which ones pay you back and which ones cost you. Install Halff. Live normally. Look at the report. Good luck.
