Gratu

Gratu was built from a simple idea: create a quiet place the mind can return to. In a world full of noisy, gamified wellness apps, Gratu focuses on the smallest action with the biggest emotional upside. You open the app and write what you are grateful for today. Nothing more, nothing less.

We designed Gratu to feel like opening a fresh notebook. A single daily entry. Clean typography. Gentle spacing. Subtle animations. You write your gratitude practice for the day, optionally add a photo that captures the moment, and close the loop. The simplicity is the feature.

Behind this calm workflow sits a deeper system that helps the habit stick. Gratu keeps track of your streaks, builds meaningful stats over time, and offers optional challenges that nudge you to stay consistent. Your entries sync securely through iCloud so your practice is always available and always private on both iPhone and iPad.

Gratu will soon be available worldwide in the App Store, bringing a modern and minimal approach to gratitude journaling for anyone who wants a more intentional daily rhythm.

Tech Stack

Gratu is a fully native iOS app crafted with SwiftUI and built for Apple’s ecosystem from day one. It uses:

• SwiftUI for a smooth, minimal, accessible interface
• CloudKit / iCloud Sync to keep entries synced across devices
• Core Data for fast and private on-device journaling
• App Charts for streaks, statistics, and long term visual insights
