How to install it

Installing takes about a minute

Steady comes straight from this site rather than the Play Store, so Android asks you to confirm it once.

  1. Download the file

    Tap Download on your phone. The file is called steady.apk.

  2. Allow it once

    Open the file. If Android asks, tap Settings, switch on Allow from this source, then go back.

  3. Tap Install

    If Play Protect says the app was built for an older version of Android, tap More details, then Install anyway.

  4. Open Steady

    Pick a couple of habits to start with. Everything else can wait until you need it.

What’s inside

Today and the daily check-in
A short walk through everything that needs you, once a day or whenever you like.
Tasks, habits and goals
Repeating tasks, streaks that forgive a missed day, and goals broken into milestones.
Money
A budget for every month with income and savings plans, bill reminders, and a wishlist with a cool-off before you buy.
Home life
Meal plans, chores with reminders, a grocery list and an emergency kit checklist.
Decisions and hard days
Think a big choice through step by step, or turn an overwhelming week into small next actions.
Journal and reviews
Daily reflections, weekly reviews and monthly check-ins, with photos, video and voice notes.

Your life stays on your phone

Steady has no accounts and never sends your tasks, money or journal anywhere. Backups are files you save yourself, to wherever you choose.

Questions

Is it safe to install from a website?

Every release is signed with the same key, and Android refuses an update signed with any other. The checksum at the bottom of this page lets you confirm your download matches the published file.

How do I update?

Download the new version and install it over the old one. Your data stays. Steady can also check this site for updates for you if you switch that on in Settings.

Which phones does it work on?

Android 5.0 or newer. The whole app is about 200 KB, so it runs comfortably on entry-level phones.

What if I change phones?

Make a backup in Settings, copy the file to your new phone, install Steady there and tap Restore.
