The week, at a glance
Open the app and you see every element and how often you’ve touched it this week. It’s designed to be read in two seconds, and to look incomplete without looking like failure. Most weeks will have gaps. That’s the point.
Living withGRACE
It’s not a workout program. It’s lived with, not perfected.
Living with GRACE helps you shape your week of movement with the GRACE Midlife Movement™ Protocol. There’s no plan to fall behind on, no score and no body to fix. You log what you actually did across six elements, and the app shows you the shape of your week.
For iPhone · iOS 18.5 or later · One-off price, no subscription · No account needed
Logging
Log what you actually did
Pick an element, then a suggestion or your own words. Duration and effort (Gentle, Moderate or Intense) are optional. Every suggestion comes with a sentence of context in Mish’s voice:
- Kitchen Dance Break. Three minutes, one song, full hips. Movement disguised as joy.
- Say No Practice. Pick one ‘should’ today and turn it into a ‘no’.
A Wild Card is for a rest or flexibility day, so there’s one per day, on a day with nothing else logged.
Apple Health, if you want it
Let movement count itself
Already wear an Apple Watch or use another app? Living with GRACE can read the workouts in Apple Health and file them under the right element, so your week fills in without double entry.
| Workout in Apple Health | Counts toward |
|---|---|
| Strength training, core, cross training, HIIT | Grit |
| Yoga, Pilates, mind and body, stretching, cool-down | Regulate |
| Walking, stairs | Accumulate when short, Cardio when longer |
| Running, cycling, rowing, dance, boxing, racquet sports | Cardio, or Endurance for longer efforts |
| Hiking, swimming, paddling, climbing, snow sports | Endurance |
Read-only and workouts only: never heart rate, steps or anything else. The app never writes to Health. Switch it off any time in Settings.
A personal goal, if you want one
You don’t need a goal to use the app
If you’d like one, design your own weekly rhythm (which element on which day), starting from a pattern:
- Weekly rotation
- One of each element across the week, plus a free day.
- Alternating pair
- Two elements, every other day.
- Focused pillar
- One element a few times a week, with the rest as free days.
Then choose how forgiving it should be: Strict, Balanced or Gentle. Days off let a scheduled day slip without breaking anything.
Streaks, gently
No pressure to protect a streak
Living with GRACE counts the days you showed up for yourself, with any activity at all, and keeps your total. The messages are warm whatever the number, including after a gap:
- “First day of this run. Quiet beginnings hold.”
- “Stepped away for now — 42 total days say it still counts.”
Calendar & reminders
Look back, plan ahead, or don’t
A month view of what you’ve done and what’s planned. Open any day to log something after the fact or schedule an element ahead.
Reminders are optional and you choose the time. They respond to where you actually are in your week (suggesting Regulate the day after an intense session, say), and a quiet note marks each new week. Not nags, not streak-shaming. Just a quiet check-in.
Share your week
A week to reflect on, not judge
Once a week has passed, Living with GRACE offers a card of it to post or send. It deliberately carries no score: no totals, no percentage, no “5 out of 7”. Just the shape of your week, and a line like “A quieter week. Still a week.”
The card is made on your phone and only leaves it when you choose to share.
The Guide
Mish, in your pocket
The Guide holds Mish’s definition of every element, with example activities. It’s always there and never locked.
It starts with care: before anything else, Living with GRACE asks you to move with care. GRACE is a movement framework, not medical advice.
Private by design
No account. No server. Nothing tracked.
Your activities, streaks and anything from Apple Health stay on your iPhone. There’s no analytics, advertising or third-party data collection of any kind, and one tap deletes everything.
The one thing that travels: if you’re signed in to iCloud, your personal goal’s name and weekly pattern sync through your own private iCloud so it appears on your iPad. Your health and activity data never goes to iCloud.
