What are streaks and how do they work?

One completed session a day keeps the streak alive. Here is exactly when it breaks.

A streak is the number of consecutive calendar days on which you completed at least one focus session.

The rule

One completed session per day. That is the whole requirement.

Length does not matter. A 10-minute session and a three-hour session both keep the streak alive by exactly the same amount. This is deliberate — the streak measures showing up, not volume. Volume is what focus hours are for.

When a streak breaks

Peazehub compares your most recent active day against today:

  • Session today — streak continues
  • Last session was yesterday, nothing yet today — streak intact, still counting
  • More than one day since the last session — streak resets to zero

So the deadline is the end of the day after your last session, not midnight tonight. If you studied Monday and it is now Tuesday evening, you have until Tuesday ends.

Days are counted in your device's local time zone.

Your longest streak is kept separately

Two numbers are tracked:

NumberBehaviour
Current streakResets to zero when you miss a day
Longest streakNever decreases — a personal record

Breaking a 40-day run resets the current streak to zero, but the 40 stays on your profile permanently.

The heatmap shows the same data

Every square on your statistics heatmap is one day, shaded by minutes focused. A streak is a row of unbroken squares. Gaps in the heatmap are exactly the days that reset the count, which makes it easy to see the pattern — most broken streaks cluster on the same weekday.

A note on session length

Because any completed session counts, the lowest-cost way to protect a streak on a bad day is a short one. A single 10-minute session keeps the record intact. This is not a loophole; it is the intended use.

Common questions

How do I keep my streak alive?

Complete at least one focus session per calendar day. Session length does not matter — a finished 10-minute session counts the same as a two-hour one.

When does a streak break?

When a full calendar day passes with no completed session. Missing today does not break the streak until the day ends; missing yesterday and today does.

Can I get my streak back after breaking it?

No. A broken streak resets to zero and starts again from your next completed session. Your longest-ever streak is kept separately and is never lost.
