The short answer

  1. 01

    Open the habit’s recent history.

    First, check whether it was missed or simply not recorded.

  2. 02

    Open the habit’s schedule or target editor.

    If it keeps happening, make the next plan smaller or choose a better moment.

  3. 03

    Review and save the change.

    Continue with the next genuine action. You do not need to fill yesterday with pretend ticks.

Continue with the next genuine action. You do not need to fill yesterday with pretend ticks. Fix the plan when needed. Keep the record honest.
