Today’s Paw 2 of 5 little moments done

Pick one small thing. Kimo will keep pace.

Release principle

Local-first by default. Opt-in by design.

No forced account Core KimoAmI stays usable without login, cloud upload, ads, analytics, or tracking.
Wellness, not medical Health summaries are gentle context only, never diagnosis, treatment, or clinical advice.
Private notes stay private Journal text, mood details, raw health data, and private date notes are never shared by default.
Design add-on

Kimo Health Layer

Small, non-clinical routines that keep the current Kimo companion experience intact.

Paw

Perfect Paw Day

Manual local daily goals for walk, water, sleep note, sunlight, and reflection.

Steps

Kimo Walks

Optional steps and walks summary after HealthKit permission is explicitly granted.

Moon

Kimo Sleep Nest

A soft sleep summary that stays separate from medical or diagnostic language.

Bowl

Kimo Water Bowl

Manual hydration logging first, with optional HealthKit write only after review.

Sun

Sun Patch

Manual outdoor-time check-ins first. No location tracking in the initial version.

Soft

Soft Start

A gentle morning summary, never a stress score or health-risk interpretation.

Optional social layer

Kimo Care Circle

A small encouragement space for trusted people, not a public feed. The owner chooses what is shared and can change it later.

Invite someone close Use Sign in with Apple and CloudKit only when the user chooses social features.
Send one-tap encouragement Soft nudges, no likes, rankings, comments, public profiles, or viral loops.
Block, report, delete Social features include moderation, blocked users, and account/data deletion flows.
Safety model

Sharing rules

Clear boundaries before any optional user-to-user connection ships.
