💯Meah Brachos — the hundred blessings of a day

A hundred brachos in a day sounds like an enormous number until you count an ordinary one. The morning brachos alone are a long stretch of it. Then Shema and its brachos, then Shemoneh Esrei three times, then everything you eat and drink, and the small ones nobody thinks about — washing, a new fruit, thunder, a scent. Nobody sits down and adds this up. Which is exactly why almost nobody knows where they stand.

Lechem keeps that count for you. You are not asked to type anything or to remember anything at the end of the day. You tell it what just happened — you woke up, you are about to eat, you finished a meal — and the count moves. At the top of the screen it climbs toward a hundred, and that is the whole of it: a gentle, private notice of your own day.

The counting is deliberately not clever. Lechem does not guess that you probably davened, and it does not pad the number to make you feel better. When a meal earns several brachos, the meal screen shows you which ones and why. When the day is over and the number is what it is, the number is what it is. A count you cannot trust is worse than no count, and a count that flatters you is not a count at all.

If a day got away from you, there is a screen for filling one in afterwards, honestly, rather than pretending it never happened. And if you ever want to see the arithmetic instead of the total, Lechem will show you the whole trail — every entry that made up today's number, in order, with the rule each one came from.

What Lechem will never do is turn this into a competition. There is no public leaderboard of who made more brachos, there is no streak that shames you for missing a day, and there is no ranking of anybody against anybody. The merit is shared the way the half-shekel is shared: everyone counts, and no one is counted against anyone else. This is a red line in the product, not a setting.
