Questions, answered.

Most of what people ask is here. If yours isn’t, there is a person to write to at the foot of the page.

The challenge

Seventy-five days, on your terms.

What is 75 Kind?

A seventy-five-day challenge you set for yourself: the missions a day needs to include, and what should happen when you miss one. You decide both before day one, and the app keeps to your answer for seventy-five days.

What happens when I miss a day?

Whichever you chose at the start. Grace day: “Skip it and keep going. Three across the whole challenge.” Streak freeze: “Pause the count for a day. One a week.” Reset to Monday: “Start this week over. Your first ten days stay.” The app never chooses for you, and it never scolds. It was always going to happen once.

Can I change my policy or my missions partway through?

Yes. A change takes effect from today, and your history stays exactly as it is: past days are judged by the missions and the policy you had then.

I’m already partway through a challenge. Do I start over?

No. When Melonie asks whether you’re starting today or already on your way, say which day you’re on. She picks up there, the days before you got here won’t count as missed, and the photos you took on those days can come in from your library, each finding its day by its date. She’ll ask whether everything got done on those days, and take your word for it.

What happens on day seventy-five?

The trail reaches its end and the app says so: “Day 75. This is the summit.” Your trail, your Journey and your missions stay on the phone for as long as you keep it. If you want to go again, the app offers a second go.

Melonie

Four questions, then she steps aside.

Who is Melonie?

The voice that sets you up. She asks four questions — what you want to work on, what a day needs to include, whether you’re starting today or already on your way, and what should happen when you miss a day — and turns your answers into your missions and your policy.

Do I have to speak?

No. Every question has Type instead one tap away, and it stays there while she listens. Speaking is offered because it’s quicker to say what a day needs than to write it. Later on — editing a mission, checking in on a day — everything is typed.

Where do my answers go?

Nowhere. The phone transcribes your voice itself; the app asks iOS for its speech model once and never sees the audio go anywhere. When the app asks for speech recognition it says why: “Your answers are transcribed on this device so Melonie can turn them into your missions.”

Melonie got a mission wrong.

Edit it. Missions can be changed at any time, typed, and the change takes effect from today. Past days are judged by the missions you had then.

Missions and Health

It offers. You decide.

What counts as a mission?

Whatever you told Melonie a day needs to include — a workout, three litres of water, no pastries, twenty minutes of Spanish, a photo. Five missions, or three, or one. Or take the classic 75-day challenge, which the app knows by name and sets up in one tap.

Does the app read my Health data?

Only with your permission, and only three things. In the app’s words: “75 Kind reads your workouts, water and mindful minutes to offer them against today's missions. They stay on your phone.” When one matches a mission the app offers to close it. It offers; you decide. Nothing is ticked without you, and the switch is in Settings, on the Me tab.

Can I log a mission with Siri?

Yes. Say “Log a mission in 75 Kind” and the phone asks which one. “What’s open in 75 Kind” tells you what’s left today.

What does the widget show?

Which day you’re on, how many in a row, and the missions still open, in the colours you chose in the app. A finished mission fills its ring and dims. What you wrote and the photos you took stay in the app, never on the home screen. Add it from the home screen the way you add any widget, in the medium size or the small.

The trail and the scenes

Painted, with your weather in the sky.

Why does the app ask for my location?

For the sky. In the app’s words: “The trail takes on your local weather. Your location is used only to look up the sky and never leaves the device.” Say no and the sky follows the clock instead — clear, with the sun and the stars where the time of day puts them.

What are the scenes?

Three so far. Summit, a trail from a cabin through the forest to a moonlit peak. New York. Antigua. Each is a painting in a light and a dark version, with the day’s weather drawn into the sky. Summit is always free; every scene comes with a plan, and more are on the way.

Can I change the scene partway through?

Yes. In the app’s words: “The same seventy-five days, drawn somewhere else. Nothing about your progress changes.”

Where does a scene download from?

From the App Store, the way the app itself did, when it’s needed. The app asks Apple for the scene by name and Apple delivers it; the app never sees a byte of it in transit, and it is fetched from nowhere else.

Photos and videos

Yours, on your phone.

Where do my photos and videos go?

Into the Journey on the phone, and into a copy in your own iCloud, which only you can read, so a new iPhone can pick up. There is no server of ours to send them to. When the app asks for the camera it says so: “Take your daily progress photo or video, or the picture in your ring. Photos and videos stay on this device, and in your own iCloud while you keep a copy there.” Delete one and it’s gone; delete the app and they go from the phone; the copy stays in your iCloud until you delete it.

Can anyone else see my Journey?

No. There is no feed and nobody can leave a comment. The only thing that ever leaves is a card you share on purpose — a day, a milestone, or a then-and-now — and you see it before it goes.

Can I add a photo from a day before I had the app?

Yes. When you tell Melonie you’re already on your way, the photos you took on those days can come in from your library, and each finds its day by its date. If your library is still downloading them from iCloud, try again in a bit.

Plans and purchases

Seven days free, then a plan.

What’s free, and what needs a plan?

The first seven days, once per install, with everything in them. When the week ends, nothing is charged. Without a plan, the trail waits, and nothing is lost. Then three months is $24.99, and the other plans, and what happens when you cancel, are on the pricing page.

I paid, and the app doesn’t show it.

On the Me tab, tap Restore purchase. A purchase is confirmed with the App Store and remembered by the phone; on a new phone, or after reinstalling, restoring brings it back.

How do I cancel?

From the Me tab, or in your Apple Account’s subscriptions in Settings. A plan runs to the end of the period you paid for. See it through never renews, so there is nothing to cancel.

Your phone

Any iPhone that runs iOS 26.

What does 75 Kind run on?

An iPhone with iOS 26 or later — the iPhone 11 and every iPhone since, and the iPhone SE from 2020 on, once it is updated. It is made for the iPhone alone: there is no iPad, Mac or Android version, and no app for the Watch.

Do I need an Apple Watch?

No. If you wear one, a workout it records reaches Health, and the app offers it against the mission it fits. It offers; you decide. There is nothing to install on the Watch.

Does it need Apple Intelligence?

No. Melonie works on every iPhone the app runs on. On an iPhone with Apple Intelligence — the iPhone 15 Pro and every iPhone since, with it turned on — she goes a little further: the missions she suggests are shaped to the goal you gave her, and in the mission editor you can say what to change in plain words. Both happen on the phone. On any other iPhone the same missions are there to tap, and a mission is edited by its own fields.

Is it in my language?

English, for now. Melonie speaks and listens in English, and the app’s words are English on a phone set to any language.

Your data

No account. Nothing to sign in to.

Is there an account?

No. Nothing to sign up for and nothing to sign in to. The app on your phone is the only copy of your challenge, so deleting the app deletes the challenge. Your phone’s own backup includes it the way it includes any app, and a new phone set up from the old one carries it across.

What leaves the phone?

A request for the weather, so the sky is right. The App Store, for a purchase, a restore, or a scene’s paintings — and iOS’s own download of the speech model, once, so Melonie can hear you. Your feedback, only when you tap Send. Nothing about you rides along with any of it, and the privacy policy names each one.

What does Send feedback send?

The feedback screen tells you before you tap: “What leaves your phone: what you wrote, the screenshot if you add one, your email if you give it, and a few details about the app — its version and build, your iPhone and iOS version, your language and region, theme, text size, whether Reduce Motion or VoiceOver is on, which day you're on, which trail, and when you wrote this. Nothing else. Not your missions, your check-ins, your photos or where you are.”

Does the app track me?

No. There is no analytics in the app and nothing that builds a picture of you. What the app does contact, it contacts for one job each, and the privacy policy lists them.

Didn’t find it?

Write to a person. For anything about a particular day, use Send feedback on the app’s Me tab: it brings your version and the day along, so the answer fits your phone.
