yes — the free tier is a full tracker, not a demo: 10 habits, 2 routines, streaks with shields, the contribution-graph heatmap, checkbox / counter / number tracking, 8 themes, the checklist widget, all reminder modes, cloud sync & icloud backup, and full stats with history backfill. the apple watch app is free too. pro removes the limits and adds the power features below.
pro adds apple health auto-sync, timer mode with pomodoro and live activities, every widget, all 25 apple watch complications, all 23 themes plus the custom theme editor, custom fonts & app icons, passcode & face id lock — and raises the limits to 100 habits and 25 routines. it costs €4.99/month, €34.99/year (about €2.92/month, with a 7-day free trial), or €49.99 once for lifetime. there's a 30-day money-back guarantee — see the refund policy.
shields are earned streak freezes. by default, every 7 days of actually hitting your goal earns one and you can hold up to 3 — both numbers are yours to change in settings. miss a day and a shield spends itself automatically: the streak survives. you can't buy them; only real completed days earn them.
vacation mode freezes everything for a date range — no streaks lost, no shields spent, no guilt. sick mode does the same from a chosen start date until you're back. the app assumes life happens; a habit tracker shouldn't punish you for it.
no. the app works fully offline with no sign-up, and cloud sync is optional and anonymous by default. when you do want your habits to follow you, sign in with apple or with an email and password — the browser adds google as well. the same account works on the iPhone, the watch and the web.
yes — five tracking modes: checkbox, counter (glasses of water), number with a goal and unit (8,000 steps), timer (pro), and apple-health-linked (pro). schedules go beyond daily too: specific weekdays, every N days, monthly dates, biweekly, and weekly targets like 3×/week.
pro habits can bind to 21 health metrics: steps, exercise minutes, active energy, stand hours, stand minutes, flights climbed, workouts, workout minutes, walking and running distance, cycling distance, swimming distance, wheelchair distance, wheelchair pushes, weight, sleep, time in daylight, water, protein, fibre, mindful minutes and medication doses. the app reads the metric daily and completes the habit by itself when you hit your target. any day can still be overridden by hand.
nine, plus a live activity. on the home screen: an interactive checklist (tap to complete without opening the app), the heatmap, the contribution grid, a week view, quick icons, and mood — a kaomoji face for how the day is going. on the lock screen: a progress ring, next up, and mood again. the live activity keeps a running timer on the lock screen and in the dynamic island. the checklist widget is free; the full set is pro.
yes. cloud sync and icloud backup are free, so a new device restores itself. everyone — free or pro — can export the full dataset as json and import it back at any time. your data is never held hostage.
nothing is deleted, ever. habits and routines beyond the free limits are frozen — visible but locked — until you're back under the limits or resubscribe, and pro-only settings step back to their free versions. all your history stays.
the app works without an account, and your habits stay on your device unless you turn on cloud sync — which is anonymous by default and runs on our own european server, not big-cloud SaaS. no feed, no followers, no ads. details in the privacy policy.
iPhone, apple watch and any browser. the web app is live at app.inithabits.com and syncs with ios in real time — same habits, same streaks. the apple watch app ships inside the iPhone app, so there is nothing extra to download. android is planned: join the android list and you'll get one email when it ships.
check off a habit, log a value, start or stop a timer and run a routine, straight from your wrist — plus your stats, achievements and levels. it ships inside the iPhone app, so there is nothing extra to download. 25 complications put your day, your streak or your next habit on the watch face: 3 are free and the rest are pro. the wrist keeps its own theme, font and spacing. check something off with your phone in another room and it lands as soon as the two are back together.
the whole tracker in a browser at app.inithabits.com — not a companion. it works on its own, or synced with your iPhone in real time. you can drive it from the keyboard, install it as a desktop app with its own dock icon, and it runs on windows, linux and android browsers too. pro carries across: buy it on either side and both unlock.
because monospace is calm. one font, aligned columns, and 23 editor themes — dracula, nord, tokyo night, catppuccin, gruvbox and friends. it's a habit tracker for people who live in editors and terminals — and anyone who prefers quiet tools.
