Key features
Disciplined
- One-tap daily checklist
- Add a habit in a few seconds and mark it complete with a single tap. Habits can be ones to build or ones to break.

- A habit can be daily, weekly, tied to specific days of the week or set to a custom interval, with its own target.
- Per-habit reminders
- Set a custom reminder for each habit so the notification arrives at the time you chose for it.

- Habit data syncs across your devices automatically, and a home screen widget lets you check habits off without opening the app.
