# Create an item
## Step 1 - Tap the + button
## Step 2 - Name your item and optionally choose a color
Important - Items must have unique names and cannot be blank.
## Step 3 - Tap the "Create" button
# Edit an item
## Step 1 - Tap on an item (anywhere but the number)
## Step 2 - Tap the "Settings" button
## Step 3 - Edit the item name and/or color. Tap the "Done" button when finished
Important - you must tap "Done" to save your changes.
# Change an item's type
Setting an item's type will change how it is displayed on the main Items page and on it's chart.
There are two item types - **Sum and Average.**
If an item's type is **sum** (the default) the item will display a sum of all entry values.
If an item's type is **average** the item will display an average of all the entry values. A good example of an item that should use this type is "Weight". You are most likely not interested in viewing the sum of all your weight entries but rather the average.
To change an item's type, follow the steps below.
## Step 1 - Tap on an item (anywhere but the number)
## Step 2 - Tap the "Settings" button
## Step 3 - Tap on the "Type" chooser and then make a selection
# Change an item's default display
Setting an item's default display will change how it is displayed on the main Items page and when that display resets to 0.
By default an item's display will reset to 0 every **day** at 12:00AM. You can change this to **week**, **month**, **year** or **total**. For example, if you set the default display to week, it will reset to 0 at the beginning of every new week.
*Note: when an item's display resets to 0, this does not mean entries are deleted. It is just how the item is displayed on the main Items page.*
Before an item's display resets to 0, it will show the sum of all entry values for that time period.
If an [item type](/help/item-help/change-an-items-type) is set to average, the only option available is to display the last entry value.
To change an item's default display, follow the steps below.
## Step 1 - Tap on an item (anywhere but the number)
## Step 2 - Tap the "Settings" button
## Step 3 - Tap on the "Default Display" chooser and then make a selection

# Why I built Druck
One night over the summer the idea came to me to build Druck. Sure, the idea probably was building inside for a few years, but the breakthrough happened while sitting on my couch watching a baseball game.
I’ve been tracking things about myself for years. It started with steps and weight and then expanded into things I eat and drink and eventually grew to cover activities like going to the beach or playing tennis.
While sitting on the couch, I was thinking about all of the places I track things - Google Sheets, Apple Health, Runkeeper, and Notes App. Things were kind of all over the place and it was getting hard to keep track (pun intended!). A single place to keep all of this stuff would make it much easier for me to not only enter data but also view it all. And from this, the idea of Druck was born.
I’m writing this 3 months later. I’ve just released Druck to the App Store. I’ve been using it every day and it has either replaced or augmented all of the previous places I used to track things. There’s a lot more I want to do, but the core is in place and it works quite well. A huge thank you to all of the people who have beta tested this along the way. Your feedback has been invaluable!
This is only the beginning for Druck. I believe it has the capacity to truly help people make positive changes in their lives. I’m excited to keep building and see where this goes.
# Ok what should I track?
How to get started with self-tracking
All your friends are doing it. Well, maybe only a few. But still, you’ve heard tracking things about yourself and your activities is a good way to make positive changes and enhance your memory. But where to start?
When you sit down to think about what you should be tracking, here are a few tips to keep in mind:
1. Is there an activity you wish you did more of? Like taking vitamins, or eating more vegetables. These are prime things you can track and try and create a positive streak of doing it every day or week.
2. Conversely, are there negative activities or habits you want to cut down on? Track when you do them and try and create a streak of days or weeks where you don’t do them.
3. Think about your health. Are you currently weighing yourself at least once a week? Are you writing these numbers down and seeing how they chart over time? Cholesterol level, resting heart rate, and steps per day are all important indicators of your health. Being aware of these numbers is the first step towards improving them.
4. Do you know when you last went to the dentist? Got a physical? Changed your drinking water filter? Keeping track of these activities and knowing when the next time you need to do them is an excellent thing to start tracking.
Now you have some good ideas about what to track. But how should you go about tracking them? The key to tracking is to make it easy on yourself. Here are a few tips to make your self-tracking journey as smooth as possible:
1. Choose a good place to write things down. You can use a spreadsheet or a dedicated app like Druck. Just make sure it’s on your phone and doesn’t need an internet connection to work. That way you can write things down anywhere and at any time. Even late at night in bed before you go to sleep.
2. You don’t need to be exact. If you want to track eating carbs, you don’t need to necessarily write down the total number of carbs in your food. Rather just write down if you ate carbs or not. Keep it simple. You can always expand later on down the road.
3. Automate as much as you can. You wouldn’t manually count the number of steps you take per day right? Rather you’d rely on a device to do that instead. There are many other ways to automate tracking for you. Smart scales are inexpensive these days. You can wear a watch or bracelet that tracks your heart rate, sleep, blood oxygen levels, and more. Invest in these devices to make tracking easier for yourself.
Ultimately the path to improving yourself starts with *know thyself*. And that first begins with self-tracking. Go ahead and pick a few activities you want to track, and just get started writing them down. Keep it simple, stay consistent and have fun. In just a short period you should start learning things about yourself you may have never known. Then you can put those learning to good use and cause positive changes.
# How I started tracking and where I am now - Part 1
In 2012, I bought my first Fitbit. As a tech geek, I was more interested in how the tiny little gadget worked than actually tracking my steps. But that changed real quick.
Once I started wearing the Fitbit my view of the city changed. As a New Yorker, I was already used to walking everywhere. But I had always viewed it more as a chore than something to be enjoyed. How far anything was from the subway stop was generally my number 1 criterion for where I went. But Fitbit changed all of that for me. Now I wanted to walk more to see how many steps I could get in a day. It became a fun game to play whether that was against myself or my friends.
A few years later, Fitbit gave way to the iPhone which ultimately gave way to the Apple Watch. Now 10 years later I still look at the distance I go every day and get happy when I have a big day.
After steps, I started measuring my weight. Post-college I started gaining a lot of weight but never really was aware of how much I weighed. If you ask me how much I weighed before I turned 30 I couldn’t tell you. After my first child was born, I learned I had high cholesterol and that I was allergic to gluten. I embarked on a lifestyle-changing diet change and ended up losing 30 lbs. That is when I started to consistently weigh myself and write it down. These days I weigh myself about once every few days or so and use a smart scale connected to my phone to make it easy.
Around the same time, I started tracking the places I visited on FourSquare. While different from tracking steps or weight, the result was gaining knowledge about how I spent my time which gave me insights into how I *wanted* to spend my time. All of a sudden I was building up a log of where I went, how far I traveled to get there, and how I could take care of my body to start enjoying a healthier lifestyle.
[In part 2](/essays/how-i-started-tracking-and-where-i-am-now-part-2) I’ll cover how I started tracking more things about myself and where it all ended up.
# How I started tracking and where I am now - Part 2
Here is part 2 of how I started tracking things about myself. [Part 1 is here](/essays/how-i-started-tracking-and-where-i-am-now-part-1).
4 years ago I was tracking my steps, weight, and a few other health-related items when I took things to the next level. I chose a few items I wanted to cut down on and started tracking them every day.
I created a Google Sheet and every day wrote down if I ate carbs, ate sugar, drank alcohol, smoked pot, pooped, or took Advil. Other than poop, all of these were things I wanted to do less of. Over time I started getting a sense of what a good week looked like. Then what a good month looked like. Now I can even tell you what a good year looks like.
In 2021, I bought an Apple Watch and it automatically started tracking things like heart rate, blood oxygen, sleep, and more. Since I was already using Apple Health for weight and steps, it was easy to look over these numbers and start making positive changes to see my numbers go in the right direction. Whether that was going to sleep a little earlier or running more to get my resting heart rate down, I was both consciously and unconsciously changing in the right direction.
Last summer, I had recently left my job and was work-free for the first time in a long time. After the pandemic, I looked to enjoy my time and relax. I played a lot of tennis, cooked a lot of BBQs, and just generally did a lot more leisure activities like swimming and golf. Realizing how lucky I was to be in that mode, I started writing down the fun things I did every day in Apple Notes. I’d write them down while in bed before going to sleep, which gave me a great feeling about how I was spending my time.
A few months ago I started working on Druck. I wanted a single place to enter and view all of my health data, activities I’m trying to cut down on, and a log of positive things I did every day. These things were all spread out - in Apple Health, in Google Sheets, and in the Notes app. Now with Druck, they are consolidated in a single place which makes my tracking data easier to manage and more insightful, ultimately helping me know myself better and make positive changes.
Today I track my weight, steps, when I take vitamins, sleep, when I drink alcohol, smoke pot, poop, eat sugar, eat carbs, take Advil, play tennis, run, my recovery heart rate, my resting heart rate, how many push-ups I do, when I visit restaurants, when I change the Brita water filter, and more. While I track multiple things, my journey to get here has taken me a decade. My advice to people that are just starting out - keep it simple. Track 1 or 2 things and don't worry too much about the fidelity. Just knowing how much you do something is the first step towards doing more or less of it.
# Resolutions vs Goals
I was chatting with a friend who asked me what my New Year’s resolutions were. I replied that I don’t have resolutions - I have goals.
My Goals are set using data that I already know about myself. They might sound very similar to resolutions but there is a key difference. I’ll illustrate with an example.
A classic New Year’s resolution is wanting to get healthy. Most people have a general idea of how to do that - by eating right, exercising, and getting more sleep. My New Years' goal is very similar. I just add some numbers to it - eat carbs less than 5 times a month, run 10 miles a week, increase total push-ups every week, and sleep at least 7 hours every night.
I have 5-10 years' worth of data about myself in Druck. It’s easy to look at what a good year, month, week, and day look like. These insights provide me the numbers I need to set specific goals to try and make the incoming new year better than the outgoing one. I can’t control everything in the world. Shit happens, as we all know too well. But I’ve found that setting specific goals with numbers to back them, gives me a higher chance of attaining them, rather than just saying "I’d like to do such and such", which never seemed to quite stick for me.
# Enhance Your Memory
The title of this post may give the impression that I am offering some magic pill for memory enhancement. While that is not the case, I will show how self-tracking can be an effective way to improve your memory. In this post, I will explain why.
First, it's important to understand that we will enhance your memory by supplementing it. Memory refers to the ability of the mind to store and recall information. Sometimes we are good at that, and sometimes we are terrible. It can vary significantly from person to person, and there are many theories as to why this may be the case. However, it is a common characteristic among all humans.
In contrast, computers have exceptional memory. They have almost a perfect memory. By recording information about past events on a computer, we can ensure that our memories will not be forgotten. Recording on a computer is the first step in enhancing or supplementing your memory. By transferring the task of data storage from your brain to a computer, you can free up space in your mind for other things.
Step two focuses on retrieving the stored data. Now that the information is securely stored on a computer, we need an efficient way to retrieve it. There are several ways to think about data recall, such as using keywords, geographical location, time, and photographic images.
Keywords allow for quick and efficient searching, geographical location helps recall information related to a specific place, time is useful for recalling information based on when it happened, and photographic images can be useful for people with a strong visual memory.
These methods for organizing data are the starting points for recall. The human-computer interface is how we use these methods to retrieve stored information from the computer. A user-friendly computer interface will provide various ways to access the stored data, such as through search, timelines, or maps. This allows you to easily recall the information you need with minimal knowledge about past events.
Now that we understand how computers can enhance your memory by supplementing it through the process of recording and retrieving past events, the final step is to ensure that you are consistently recording information. This can be done by taking many pictures, writing things down at the end of the day, using devices that automate the process, and using an app like Druck to consolidate all the information and provide user-friendly interfaces for easy recall. It may not be a magic pill, but it is a real and effective solution for memory enhancement that exists today.

* **9.2 Dispute Resolution. *****Please read this Arbitration Agreement carefully. It is part of your contract with Company and affects your rights. It contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.***
* **(a)** *Applicability of Arbitration Agreement.* All claims and disputes (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as set forth below) in connection with the Terms or the use of any product or service provided by the Company that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis under the terms of this Arbitration Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed to, all arbitration proceedings shall be held in English. This Arbitration Agreement applies to you and the Company, and to any subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns, as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services or goods provided under the Terms.
* **(b)** *Notice Requirement and Informal Dispute Resolution.* Before either party may seek arbitration, the party must first send to the other party a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, and the requested relief. A Notice to the Company should be sent to: \[TEMP ADDRESS], New York, New York 10023. After the Notice is received, you and the Company may attempt to resolve the claim or dispute informally. If you and the Company do not resolve the claim or dispute within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, either party may begin an arbitration proceeding. The amount of any settlement offer made by any party may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has determined the amount of the award, if any, to which either party is entitled.
* **(c)** Arbitration Rules. Arbitration shall be initiated through the American Arbitration Association ("**AAA**"), an established alternative dispute resolution provider ("**ADR Provider**") that offers arbitration as set forth in this section. If AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties shall agree to select an alternative ADR Provider. The rules of the ADR Provider shall govern all aspects of the arbitration, including but not limited to the method of initiating and/or demanding arbitration, except to the extent such rules are in conflict with the Terms. The AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules ("**Arbitration Rules**") governing the arbitration are available online at [www.adr.org](http://www.adr.org) or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator. Any claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is less than Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) may be resolved through binding non-appearance-based arbitration, at the option of the party seeking relief. For claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the Arbitration Rules. Any hearing will be held in a location within 100 miles of your residence, unless you reside outside of the United States, and unless the parties agree otherwise. If you reside outside of the U.S., the arbitrator shall give the parties reasonable notice of the date, time and place of any oral hearings. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. If the arbitrator grants you an award that is greater than the last settlement offer that the Company made to you prior to the initiation of arbitration, the Company will pay you the greater of the award or $2,500.00. Each party shall bear its own costs (including attorney’s fees) and disbursements arising out of the arbitration and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the ADR Provider.
* **(d)** *Additional Rules for Non-Appearance Based Arbitration.* If non-appearance based arbitration is elected, the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or based solely on written submissions; the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration. The arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
* **(e)** *Time Limits.* If you or the Company pursue arbitration, the arbitration action must be initiated and/or demanded within the statute of limitations (i.e., the legal deadline for filing a claim) and within any deadline imposed under the AAA Rules for the pertinent claim.
* **(f)** *Authority of Arbitrator.* If arbitration is initiated, the arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and the Company, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages, and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the AAA Rules, and the Terms. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and the Company.
* **(g)** *Waiver of Jury Trial.* THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and less costly than rules applicable in a court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In the event any litigation should arise between you and the Company in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND THE COMPANY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge.
* **(h)** *Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions.* ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER.
* **(i)** *Confidentiality.* All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, including but not limited to the award of the arbitrator and compliance therewith, shall be strictly confidential. The parties agree to maintain confidentiality unless otherwise required by law. This paragraph shall not prevent a party from submitting to a court of law any information necessary to enforce this Agreement, to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek injunctive or equitable relief.
* **(j)** *Severability.* If any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
* **(k)** *Right to Waive.* Any or all of the rights and limitations set forth in this Arbitration Agreement may be waived by the party against whom the claim is asserted. Such waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of this Arbitration Agreement.
* **(l)** *Survival of Agreement.* This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Company.
* **(m)** *Small Claims Court.* Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or the Company may bring an individual action in small claims court.
* **(n)** *Emergency Equitable Relief.* Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek emergency equitable relief before a state or federal court in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration. A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of any other rights or obligations under this Arbitration Agreement.
* **(o)** *Claims Not Subject to Arbitration.* Notwithstanding the foregoing, claims of defamation, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark or trade secrets shall not be subject to this Arbitration Agreement.
* **(p)** *Courts.* In any circumstances where the foregoing Arbitration Agreement permits the parties to litigate in court, the parties hereby agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within New York County, New York, for such purpose
* **9.3 Export.** The Site may be subject to U.S. export control laws and may be subject to export or import regulations in other countries.

* **9.5 Electronic Communications.** The communications between you and Company use electronic means, whether you use the Site or send us emails, or whether Company posts notices on the Site or communicates with you via email. For contractual purposes, you (a) consent to receive communications from Company in an electronic form; and (b) agree that all terms and conditions, agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that Company provides to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications would satisfy if it were be in a hardcopy writing. The foregoing does not affect your non-waivable rights.
* **9.6 Entire Terms.** These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the use of the Site. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. The word “including” means “including without limitation”. If any provision of these Terms is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of these Terms will be unimpaired and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. Your relationship to Company is that of an independent contractor, and neither party is an agent or partner of the other. These Terms, and your rights and obligations herein, may not be assigned, subcontracted, delegated, or otherwise transferred by you without Company’s prior written consent, and any attempted assignment, subcontract, delegation, or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void. Company may freely assign these Terms. The terms and conditions set forth in these Terms shall be binding upon assignees.
