Small self-care. A hedgehog that cheers you on.
Check off tiny things like a glass of water or a one-minute stretch. Do three and your baby hedgehog goes for a walk, then comes home with a postcard for you. Every item is earned with acorns, nothing is behind a paywall, and missing a day never makes your pet sad.

FAQ
- Is there a paywall or subscription?
- No. Every feature and every decoration is included. Pricklet is supported by ads, and full-screen ads only appear after you finish something, never while you check things off or breathe.
- What happens if I miss a day?
- Nothing bad. Your hedgehog never gets sick or runs away. The next day it just says that's okay and invites you to try one small thing.
- How does the walk work?
- Check off three small things and the walk unlocks. Your hedgehog is out for about an hour, then comes home with a postcard and acorns.
- Can I change the self-care tasks?
- Yes. Tap + to add your own or pick from ideas, and hold any task to rename or delete it.
- Can I move my hedgehog to a new phone?
- Yes. Use Settings, Save a backup file, then Restore from a file on the new phone. No account needed.
- Does Pricklet vibrate on every tap?
- No. The app itself doesn't vibrate. Reminder notifications follow your notification settings.
- Is my journal private?
- Your tasks, moods and notes stay on your phone. Pricklet has no account and no server for your data.
- Is Pricklet a mental health treatment?
- No. It is a gentle self-care and relaxation app. If you are in crisis, please contact local emergency services or a crisis line.
