Habo vs Table Habit

Habo

• People who want a free, open-source tracker with no ads or account
• Privacy-minded users who want sync the server cannot read
• Self-hosters willing to run their own Supabase backend

Table Habit

• People who want one free tracker on phone and desktop, including Linux
• Users who already run Nextcloud or another WebDAV server
• Scoring partial or over-completed days instead of a plain streak
• Loop Habit Tracker users moving to iOS or a desktop

Habo

• Phone only: the vendor lists Android and iOS, the App Store listing is marked only for iPhone, and there is no web or desktop app.
• Syncing between devices needs a paid Habo Sync plan or a Supabase backend that you set up and run yourself.
• The terms limit the Lifetime purchase to the Habo Sync feature, for as long as it is offered; future standalone services may cost extra.
• The developer describes Habo as a one-person project supported by community contributors and translators.

Table Habit

• Home screen widgets for Android and iOS are marked as in progress on the roadmap and are not yet released.
• Sync works only through a WebDAV server that you provide; other sync backends are listed as planned.
• There is no web version, and the user guide is written for the Android app with other platforms noted separately.
• The README describes it as a one-person indie project supported by donations.

Habo

Quick check-ins

A day can be logged as a success, a numeric value, missed or skipped, and a skip does not affect the streak. Each check-in can carry a note of up to 400 characters.

Calendar and statistics

A monthly calendar shows streaks and completions, and statistics chart streaks, trends and completions over time.

Habo Sync

Data is encrypted on the device with a Master Password before upload, so the server holds only ciphertext. Conflicts between devices are resolved by keeping the latest change.

Self-hosted sync

The sync backend is open source and runs on your own Supabase project. The app is pointed at it under Settings, and all sync features work without a subscription.

Privacy and data control

The app works without an internet connection or account, can be locked with Face ID, Touch ID or a passcode, and offers export and backup of your data.

Organization and themes

Habits can be grouped into categories, reordered by drag and drop and archived without losing history. Themes include dark, light, OLED and Material You on Android.

Table Habit

Habit score

Each habit earns a score up to 100 from a curve-based algorithm. A Target Days setting fixes the minimum number of days needed to reach the full score.

Positive and negative habits

A habit has a daily goal and an extra goal. Going over the goal earns bonus points up to a limit, falling short costs less than a miss, and a skipped day costs nothing.

Completion rules

A habit can be due daily, on any X days per week, on any X days per month, or X times within a rolling window of Y days.

WebDAV sync

Devices sync through a WebDAV server such as Nextcloud, Koofr or one you host yourself, so no vendor account or vendor cloud is involved.

Heatmaps and growth charts

A habit's detail page has a check-in heatmap, a bar chart of check-ins and a score graph that can be grouped by day, week, month or year.

Groups, import and export

Habits can be grouped, colored, reordered by dragging and checked in as a batch. Data exports and imports as JSON, and Loop Habit Tracker data can be imported from CSV.
