Money, habits and custom metrics

This page covers what you track beyond the built-in body and mind metrics. Spending and Net Worth are money. Habits are yes or no. Custom metrics are trackers you define. Goals set a target on a metric. In the beta you enter money by hand. Every metric is optional.

Metric	What it is	Unit and range	How you log it	Fills itself in from
Spending	What you spent in the day	Your currency, 0 or more	Add each amount as an entry, or type a total for the day	Nothing
Net Worth	What you own minus what you owe, as a snapshot	Your currency. Any number, including a negative one	Type the number in its row when you check it	Nothing
Habits	Yes or no things you do each day	Yes or no. A habit can have tasks	Tap the habit. For a habit with tasks, open it and tick each task	Nothing
Custom metrics	A tracker you define yourself	A number, a 1–10 scale, yes or no, or short text	Create it under Tracked metrics, then log it on the Log tab	Nothing
Goals	A daily or weekly target on a metric	The metric’s own unit	Open the menu, then Settings, then Goals	Nothing. VitaSync works out progress from what you log

Currency

One currency applies to all your money metrics. The default is GBP. To change it, open the menu, then Settings, then Units & Currency. The choices are GBP, USD, EUR, JPY, AUD and CAD. VitaSync does not convert amounts. Changing the currency changes the symbol only, so log in your own currency.

Spending

Spending is timed. Each amount you add is an entry with a time, and the entries add up to the day’s total. The button names the amount, like Add £8.50. Remove an entry to correct the total. You can also type one total for the day, for example in Catch up. A total with no entries behind it shows as “Logged as a total for the day”. In the beta you enter spending by hand. VitaSync does not read your bank. Bank connections are planned. See What’s in the beta.

Net Worth

Net Worth is a snapshot, not a flow. It is the value on the day you checked it. You do not log it daily. Weekly or monthly is typical.

It can be negative. VitaSync accepts any number.
Gaps are expected. Charts draw a line between your snapshots. They do not treat the days in between as missing.
It saves when you leave the field. A Save button appears while your number differs from the stored one.

Habits

A habit is a yes or no for the day. Tap it to mark it done. Create habits under Settings, then Habits. Turn on Tasks for a habit to give it a checklist. For example, a Morning routine habit could have three tasks.

A habit with tasks is done once you tick every task. Tap the habit to open its tasks in place.
Progress shows as a count. Two of three ticked shows 2/3. It does not count as done, and it does not extend your streak.
A habit without tasks stays a single tap.
Past days stay as they were. Adding tasks to a habit affects the days from then on.

Custom metrics

Custom metrics let you track something VitaSync does not cover. Open the menu, then Tracked metrics, then Create custom metric. Choose a name and a kind. You can also set a unit and an icon.

Kind	How you log it	Quick-add
Number	Type a number. The unit you chose shows beside it	No
1–10 scale	Tap a number on a row of ten	Yes
Yes or no	One tap	Yes
Short text	One line, up to about 280 characters	No

A custom scale has no good end. It shows plain cells, with 1 Low and 10 High. Built-in ratings colour their ends. Yours do not.
Insights can use numbers, scales and yes or no. Short text is left out of comparisons.
You can rename, reorder and move a custom metric. Reorder it alongside the built-in metrics on Tracked metrics.
Archiving hides a custom metric and keeps its history. You can restore it later.

Goals

A goal is a target on one metric. It is daily or weekly. It sets either a number to reach (at least) or a cap to stay under (at most). Open the menu, then Settings, then Goals, then Add goal. Pick a metric and set the target in its unit. Each metric has a default period and direction, and you can change both. You can have one goal per metric.

Metric	Unit	Default period	Default direction
Sleep	Hours	Daily	At least
Meditation	Minutes	Daily	At least
Water	ml	Daily	At least
Steps	Steps	Daily	At least
Deep Work	Hours	Daily	At least
Workouts	Number of workouts	Weekly	At least
Calories	kcal	Daily	At most
Protein, Carbs and Fat	Grams	Daily	At least
Spending	Your currency	Weekly	At most
Alcohol	Units	Weekly	At most
Screen Time	Hours	Daily	At most

A weekly goal adds up the week’s daily values, Monday to Sunday.

Progress shows on Home. The Your goals card shows the amount so far against the target. A goal is met once you reach an at least target, or stay at or under an at most cap. Going over a cap shows a warning tint.
A day with nothing logged reads as not started. It does not read as failed.
A goal never blocks logging.
Goals do not cover Mood, Energy, Stress or custom metrics.
