Earn coins and XP, then redeem rewards

Every task and habit pays the coins you set on it, 10 by default, up to 1,000. Spend coins on rewards you set yourself in the Rewards vault, at the price you choose. Coins come from finishing things. Time earns XP. XP raises your level: 5,000 XP reaches level 2, and each level needs 10% more.

Understand XP and levels

XP comes from time and from finishing things. Your level and its bar sit in the title bar.

What you doXP
Track 15 minutes with the timer10 XP
Finish a task or a habit5 XP
Keep your best current habit streak5 XP for each day of it

Time XP counts what the focus timer tracks. Time you log by hand with complete past days pays coins and completion XP, but no time XP. XP is worked out from your history, so it can fall after an undo.

Questions

What people ask about levels and coins.

My level did not change after a session

Your XP and level update after the session reaches your account: within seconds when you finish a task or habit, and within a few minutes for timer time alone. While offline, they wait for the connection.

Do coins buy anything outside the app?

No. Coins are yours to spend on the rewards you set, and they have no value outside Dabadoro. The method explains why a reward you choose works.
