Which one is for you
Pick HabitSprout if
- Fits if you want a written look back at your day on your phone
- Works for people who'll pay a few euros a month for an AI coach
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want a free plan, because after 7 days Premium is the only one
- Not for you if you want a web or desktop version
- Watch out: prices are in euros and no dollar price is shown
- Watch out: unlimited habits and full coaching need Premium
Pick Streaks if
- Fits if all your devices are Apple and you track 24 habits or fewer
- Works for people who'd sooner pay $5.99 once than subscribe
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you use Android or Windows, as it's Apple devices only
- Not for you if you want to try before you buy, since there's no free version or trial
- Tight if you track a lot, because it stops at 24 tasks
- Watch out: a broken chain resets the streak to zero, unless you set the task's days or a weekly frequency
- Too light for a household on mixed phones, since sharing works only with other Streaks users on Apple
How we grade them
| 2.4GPAHabitSproutFair | 2.4GPAStreaksFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B39.99 euros a year works out near 3.33 euros a month, between the $2.49 cheaper quarter and the $4.99 middle. No dollar price is shown. | A$5.99 once, and that purchase covers iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac and Apple Vision with no in-app purchases listed. This category's middle subscription is $3.33 a month, so the price equals under two months of that. |
| Free plan and trial | C7-day trial with every feature, and no free plan after it. Whether it needs a card isn't stated. | FNothing free at all. It's a paid download at $5.99 and the listing shows no free version and no trial, so you buy it to find out whether it suits you. |
| Features | CFlexible schedules, an AI daily review, an AI habit generator, streaks and levels. Unlimited habits are Premium. | CIt does streaks: days you can skip without breaking the chain, a weekly frequency instead of daily, Health-linked tasks like steps that complete themselves, negative tasks, timed tasks, widgets and Watch complications. But the listing names the ceiling at 24 tasks, and this is a smaller job than the category's. |
| Ease of use | BNo store rating figure on record. A phone app you install and start logging in. | A4.8 on the App Store from about 27,000 ratings, an A on our ladder. Pick a task from the list or write your own, then tap it each day. |
| Platforms and integrations | CiPhone and Android only. No web or desktop version is listed. | CApple only: iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac and Apple Vision, synced through iCloud, with Apple Health and Siri Shortcuts. No Android, Windows or web version is offered, so a household on mixed phones can't share it. |
| Best for | habits with an AI evening review | simple streak-keeping on Apple devices |

More comparisons
How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
