Which days did I actually miss this week?

After a hectic week, go through it habit by habit and day by day, and only count what was recorded. In EasyRoutine the Week view does this for you: one column per day, a tile for every logged activity, so a day without a habit's tile is a gap. With a schedule, the missed planned days even show as faded tiles.

First decide what counts as missed

A day without a habit is not always a miss. Before you count, be clear about the plan:

Daily habits (vitamins, flossing, a walk): every empty day is a miss.
Habits on certain days (gym Monday, Wednesday, Friday): only an empty planned day is a miss. An empty Tuesday is just Tuesday.
Flexible targets ("run three times a week"): there is no missed day, only a missed target. Count the days you did it and compare with the number.

If you never settled which of these a habit is, that is often why a busy week feels worse than it was. Decide now, and the next review gets easier.

Review the week in five minutes

This works with a paper tracker, a notebook or an app:

Take one habit at a time, not one day at a time. "Walk: Mon, Tue, Thu, Sat" is easier to read than seven mixed days.
Mark the days it happened and the days it was planned but did not.
Separate missed from not logged. For each gap, ask: did I do it and not write it down, or did I really skip it? Only the second is a miss.
Look for a shared cause. Gaps on the same days across several habits usually have one reason: a late shift, a trip, a sick child.
Note one change for next week, if any. Not one per gap.

Seeing the gaps in EasyRoutine

The calendar opens in Week view: seven columns, today's column highlighted, and a tile for every activity you logged on each day, in its own colour. Weeks are stacked, so last week is just above.

Open the Calendar tab and pick the routine with the buttons above it.
Look along each day's column. A habit whose tile is missing on a day was not logged that day.
To follow one habit, tap its tile above the calendar. Its tiles get a bolder frame, so the days it is missing stand out.
Repeat for the other routines. The calendar shows one routine at a time.

If the habit has a schedule (Premium), a planned day you did not log shows as a faded tile on that day. So in a scheduled routine, faded tiles on past days are exactly your missed planned days. Without a schedule there is no faded tile, and a missed day is simply empty.

Missed, or just not logged?

A hectic week produces both. If you did something and did not log it, add it now on the right day: tap the faded tile or Log on that day, then set the real time. Do it only for what you clearly remember; a guessed entry hides the real gaps. Forgot to log? has the details.

What is left after that are the real misses. Look at them together: if all of them fall on Wednesday and Thursday, the problem was those two days, not your habits. If one habit has gaps all over the week while the others are full, that habit needs a closer look; see which habit is slipping.

What not to do with the gaps

Do not make them up. Doing three walks on Sunday does not undo Tuesday, and logging walks you did not take makes next week's review useless.
Do not worry about the streak. EasyRoutine's Day streak counts days with any log, so missing one habit does not reset it; what actually resets the streak.
Do not rebuild the whole plan after one bad week. One week is noise. If the same days go empty two or three weeks in a row, then change the plan; when your schedule doesn't match reality.

Common questions

Does EasyRoutine mark missed days?

Not with a label or a red mark. For activities with a schedule, a planned day you did not log stays as a faded tile. Without a schedule, a missed day is just empty.

Can I see all routines in one week view?

No. The calendar shows one routine at a time. Switch routines with the buttons above the calendar.

I did it but forgot to log it. Can I still add it?

Yes. Tap the faded tile or Log on that past day and set the real time. Only add what you actually did.

Why is a faded tile still there for today?

It is planned for later today, or planned and not logged yet. It turns into a normal tile once you log it.
