# (Not Boring) Habits

> Habit builder for iPhone and iPad framed as a 60-repetition quest

(Not Boring) Habits is a habit-building app for iPhone and iPad from Not Boring Software. Each habit is framed as a quest of 60 repetitions across eight levels, and a missed day does not reset progress. Habit data stays on the device with no account or sync. The app is free to use in a limited capacity, and a Plus membership or a lifetime purchase unlocks unlimited habits, widgets, skins and custom app icons.

## Key features

- **60-repetition quest:** Every check-in moves a habit one step along a quest of 60 repetitions and eight levels, revealing another line of its story. Missed days do not reset anything, and logging can continue past 60.
- **Daily goals and partial completion:** Set a daily goal such as 5 times or 10,000 steps a day and log it in parts. The habit counts as done for the day once the goal is reached, shown by a progress circle until then.
- **Schedules and reminders:** Choose the days a habit applies to and up to 5 times a day for it, with optional push reminders. Reminders are muted when a habit has not been viewed for 7 days.
- **Calendar, statistics and recaps:** A calendar view shows completed days year by year, each habit has a statistics page with a total-repetitions chart, and recap notifications can arrive weekly, monthly or yearly.
- **Personal Quests:** On a device with Apple Intelligence turned on and set to English, a newly created habit gets a quest story written around it. The vendor says this runs on the device and nothing is shared.
- **Widgets and skins:** Home screen widgets show progress for one habit, several habits or the week, and skins change the look and feel of the whole app. Both are part of Plus.

## Good for

- People who lose motivation when a streak resets after one missed day
- Building or breaking a small number of habits on an iPhone or iPad
- Anyone who wants habit data kept on the device, with no account

## Worth knowing

- iPhone and iPad only: the support site says no Android versions are planned and there are no standalone Mac apps.
- Habit data is stored on one device and does not sync between devices; it is covered by iCloud Backup, and deleting the app deletes the data.
- The free version caps the number of habits at a limit the vendor does not state; widgets, skins and custom app icons need Plus.
- There is no free trial of Plus and Family Sharing is not supported; refunds are handled by Apple.
