Habits review
A focused Apple habit tracker with AI suggestions, analytics, and flexible habit types.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Habits is a habit tracker for people building routines on Apple devices. It supports daily, weekly, counter, timer, and flexible habits, giving users several ways to record progress beyond a simple daily check-in. Streaks, trends, milestones, reminders, widgets, Live Activities, and Apple Health synchronization cover the main parts of routine tracking. The app requires no account and stores habit data on the device, while private iCloud sync is available for keeping data across supported Apple platforms.
The free plan is useful for trying the core experience, but its limit of 2 active habits makes it better suited to a focused routine than a broad personal system. It includes Apple Health, timers, achievements, core analytics, themes, and widgets. Premium Monthly costs $4.99 per month and adds unlimited habits, AI Suggestions, advanced analytics, weekly insights, streak freeze, styling, and unlimited history. Premium Annual and Premium Lifetime also include unlimited habits, AI Suggestions, and advanced analytics. The paid tiers make more sense for users tracking several routines or wanting deeper review tools.
Its strongest fit is within the Apple ecosystem. Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Control Center widgets, local reminders, Live Activities, Apple Health synchronization, and iCloud sync support routine tracking across iOS and macOS. AI Suggestions are designed to turn goals into routines, while analytics and weekly insights help users review patterns over time. CSV and JSON export provide a way to take habit data elsewhere. Choose Habits if you want flexible tracking with Apple integrations and AI-assisted routine planning. Choose another option if you need platforms beyond iOS and macOS or want to track more than two habits without paying.
