Hey legends,

I’ve been working on building a **current streak** and **longest streak** tracker for a mindset challenge app and feel like I’m _so close_ but I just can’t quite get it over the line.

I only discovered Glide a couple of weeks ago so I’ve been learning everything from scratch through YouTube videos and this forum, which has already helped heaps — thank you!

Here’s what I’m trying to do:

- Track how many **consecutive days** a user completes their check-in

- Show both their **current streak** and **longest streak** in the app

What I’ve tried:

- Followed Loqode’s method and got all the way to the Fetch JSON part — but with the new Glide pricing shift, I don’t have access to “Call to API” under the free plan

- Recently tried Robert Petitto’s method, and I _think_ I’ve got most of it set up correctly, but the streaks aren’t behaving how I expected (e.g., sometimes not resetting properly or duplicating rows seems to mess things up)

I’ve attached screenshots of what I’ve got so far for context.

Would love a second set of eyes or even just a simple breakdown of how you’d tackle this now using Glide’s current features (no API calls). Any help would be hugely appreciated 🙏

Thanks in advance!  
– Tim
