gets better
Shows some improvement
Gets better describes improvement over time.
Something that gets better moves from a worse state toward a better one—health recovering, skills developing, situations easing.
The pain gets better after a few days.
It gets better is also reassurance to someone struggling, promising that circumstances will improve: High school is hard, but it gets better.
