Key features
Today Habit Tracker
- Card dashboard per habit
- Each habit has its own dashboard built from cards you pick and customize: streak calendar, milestones, photo gallery, Apple Health charts, custom charts, counters and journal notes.
- Streak calendar
- A monthly calendar of check-ins shows the current and longest streaks and lets you check in for a previous day. Swipe sideways to view earlier months.
- Apple Health charts
- Connect Apple Health to view and track more than 30 data sources such as steps, weight, sleep, active calories and caffeine, each with a goal value you set.
- Photo covers and badges
- Every habit carries a full-screen photo cover from the app's gallery or your own photos, and badges awarded for progress can be shared.
- Apple Watch and notifications
- The Apple Watch app lists the check-ins due today and has a complication. Rich notifications show progress and let you check in from the notification itself.
- Backups, lock and action URLs
- Premium backs data up automatically to iCloud Drive or Dropbox and locks the app with Face ID, Touch ID or a passcode. Action URLs follow the x-callback-url scheme for automation apps.
Way of Life
- Color-coded daily tracking
- Each day is marked green or red for every habit. The vendor says updating takes less than a minute a day.
- Chains and scoreboard
- Chains challenge you not to break a streak, and a scoreboard gives weekly and monthly feedback.
- Charts
- Pie charts, bar graphs with trend lines and a frequency distribution chart show positive and negative trends over weeks, months or years.
- Notes and reminders
- A note can record what went well or what triggered a bad habit, and reminders support flexible schedules and custom messages.
- Lock, backup and export
- The iOS app can be locked with a passcode, Face ID or Touch ID, backed up to a cloud storage provider of your choice, and exported as CSV, Excel or JSON.
