โšก๏ธ The Auto tab

The ping that gets you off the couch at exactly the right moment

Set them in the Auto tab: when you arrive or when you leave (it fires on your way out, ~100m off). Then Shelpful nudges you โ€” right when it matters.

๐Ÿ“Arrive at the gym โ†’ "you're here. just 20 minutes. that's the whole job."
๐ŸšถOn your way out โ†’ "got your keys, wallet, and the gym bag? ๐Ÿ‘€"

Personality

it talks like a friend. not a wellness app.

lowercase. a little sweary-adjacent. it knows when to push and when to just say "hey, that's hard โ€” let's just do the tiny version." no streaks. no shame spiral. just someone in your corner who notices.
