A Native Bottom Tab Bar Comes to Mobile

Built for your thumb

If you use EmberTrack on your phone, the most important buttons should be where your thumb already is โ€” not up in a corner you have to shuffle the phone around to reach.

So we added a native-style bottom tab bar.

What changed

On mobile, your core sections now live along the bottom of the screen as a fixed tab bar:

  • Dashboard โ€” your streaks
  • Tasks โ€” your to-dos
  • Account โ€” settings and preferences

Tap to switch instantly. The current tab is highlighted so you always know where you are. It's the same navigation pattern you already know from the best mobile apps, because it's the one that works.

Why it's better

  • Reachable โ€” everything sits in the natural thumb zone
  • Always there โ€” no hunting through menus mid-check-in
  • Faster โ€” one tap between your streaks and your tasks

On larger screens, the familiar top navigation stays exactly as it was. The bottom bar is a mobile-only upgrade that appears where it helps most.


Open EmberTrack on your phone to see it.
