Is Finch down right now?
No. Finch is running as normal for most users right now. This page follows Finch status with live checks and Finch down reports from the community. A calm result means the servers answer and your bird, goals, and streak data stay in step.
Local faults still ruffle feathers. A widget can sit grey while the app opens fine. A phone clock change can bend the dates inside.
Is Finch down for me or everyone?
Try the app on a second device, or ask a friend in your tree if their bird loads. If Finch opens there, your copy holds the fault. If both stall at the same syncing screen, the break sits with the service. New reports below show if other users face the same block today.
How does caring for your bird build real habits?
Each day starts with small goals you pick, like drinking water, stepping outside, or writing one honest line. Finishing a goal sends energy to your bird, which grows, learns words, and sets off on adventures. Reflections and mood check-ins sit beside the goals.
Gentle tools fill the hard moments. Breathing exercises, soundscapes, and a First Aid kit wait inside for rough patches. Nothing punishes a missed day. Your bird greets you the same way tomorrow, which keeps the habit kind.
What does Finch Plus add to the free app?
The free app covers goals, reflections, mood tracking, and a growing bird. Plus adds shop items, deeper insights, and extra exercises. One catch: a plan tied to a guest account hides after a phone change, so link an email first.
Why does the date inside Finch sometimes jump?
The app reads your phone clock to place goals on the right day. Time zone trips and daylight saving shifts can push a goal onto the wrong date. Leave the app closed for a stretch and the calendar settles alone. A short Finch outage can freeze the date too, and it clears once the servers answer again.
Do friends and the widget change how Finch feels?
The home screen widget keeps your bird and next goal in sight between opens. Friends plant trees together, send hugs and gifts, and cheer each goal you tick. Those nudges carry users through flat weeks.
Common Finch Problems and Fixes
Finch holds your bird and progress on your account, so never delete the app in a panic. Start with the gentler repairs below.
Stuck on the syncing screen
Leave the app open on strong Wi-Fi and let the sync finish. If an Unknown Error card appears, tap skip sync to reach your bird. A recent backup restores progress if the app asks you to start over.
The widget turned into a grey square
An update can leave the widget frame empty. Press and hold the widget, remove it, then add a fresh one from the gallery. Open the app once so the bird and goal load in. Restart the phone if the square stays grey.
Goals or a day of progress vanished
A guest account stores progress on the device alone, so a phone swap can strand it. Sign in with the same email or social account you used before. Restore your last backup from the backup screen.
The app freezes on the walking bird
That walking screen is the loading view, and a hang there means a stalled start. Swipe the app away in the app switcher and launch it again. Clear phone storage if the hang repeats, and keep the app updated.
Reminders stopped arriving
Open the phone settings for Finch and allow notifications. Then check the reminder times inside the app still suit your day. Battery saving modes can silence the pings on Android, so send yourself a test goal and watch for the card.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I keep my bird if I change phones?
Link an email account before the move and make a fresh backup. On the new phone, sign in the same way and restore. A guest save lives on the old device and cannot move.
Why does Finch show the wrong day after I travel?
A big time zone jump files goals under the wrong date, since the app follows your phone clock. The count repairs itself once the clock settles. Leave the app closed for half a day.
Can I use Finch without paying for Plus?
Yes. Goals, reflections, mood check-ins, and the core bird raising all work free. Plus adds shops, insights, and extra exercises. Many long-time users never pay and still keep daily habits running.
What are rainbow stones for?
Rainbow stones are the soft currency your bird earns from goals and adventures. Spend them on clothes, furniture, and travel treats in the shops. Stones never buy progress itself.
Does Finch share my journal entries?
No. Reflections stay private on your account. Friends see your bird, your tree gifts, and the cheers you send, not your written words. Read each prompt as a note to yourself, not a post.
Where do I find the First Aid tools?
The kit sits inside the app menu for moments of sharp stress. It holds breathing guides, grounding steps, soundscapes, and a space to rant in writing.
