- **Habo Sync Lifetime for $19.99** (Lifetime license): The US App Store lists a one-time Habo Sync Lifetime purchase at $19.99, about the price of two years on the annual plan. Source: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/habo-habit-tracker/id1670223360
- **Self-hosting the sync backend is free** (Other savings): Habo Sync can run on your own Supabase backend with every sync feature and no subscription; the vendor says Supabase's free tier is enough. Source: https://github.com/xpavle00/Habo

## Key features

- **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.

## Good for

- 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

## Worth knowing

- 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.
