Updating Progress
Keeping your goals and habits up to date in Griply ensures your insights and analytics remain accurate. You can update your progress directly from several places in the app, depending on what you’re tracking.
Updating Goal Progress
From the Insights Dashboard (most common)
Open the Insights Dashboard.
Find the goal you want to update.
Click the Update button next to the goal.
Choose whether to:
Enter a new total → Replace the existing value with the latest total.
Add to total → Increase your existing value by a specific amount.
Click Save.
The Update button appears on unit-based goals only, and on Desktop only. Goals tracked by completed tasks advance on their own as you finish those tasks, and goals tracked by subgoals advance as their subgoals do, so neither has anything to log by hand. On iOS, tap the goal card to open it and log from the Progress tab.
From the Goal Detail View
Open the goal you want to update.
Switch to the Progress tab.
Click Update and follow the same steps above.
What Happens When You Complete a Goal
Completing a goal keeps the progress it actually reached. Griply doesn't round it up to 100%, so a goal you complete at 72% reads 72% everywhere afterwards.
That's deliberate. Marking a goal complete is a decision that you're done with it, which isn't the same as having hit the number, and the record stays honest about the difference.
Updating Habit Progress
You can update your habits in different ways depending on how they’re set up.
Marking Habits as Done
For habits without numeric targets, you can simply mark them complete:
From the habit detail view
From any to‑do list where habits are displayed
From the calendar view
From the Insights Dashboard (in the monthly grid view)
From iOS widgets
Updating Habits with Targets
If you’ve set daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly targets for a habit, Griply won’t track completions automatically, so you log progress manually:
Right‑click the habit (or long‑press on iOS).
In the menu, choose one of the following options:
Complete → Marks the habit as fully done for that day.
+1 / −1 → Increase or decrease your count manually.
Log progress → Enter a custom number.
Skip → Exclude the day from statistics.
Fail → Mark as failed if you missed it.
Clear progress → Remove any logged data.
Updating Progress in Widgets
If you’re using the iOS widgets, you can also mark habits complete or update goal metrics directly from your Home Screen.
