### 3/5 — Needs improvement- creator of app please read

*2024-12-27, version 5.5*

I like the app. I did get the premium. But I think some fixing will make it way better. I actually really like the app. I love the simplicity of it. All the other apps are too extra and have many unnecessary features where I just want a simple fun checklist that will help me make sure I  do my healthy habits. 
So these are the things that can help improve the app yet keep it’s simplicity.
make the letters smaller to see the whole text when I finish my habit bar. And please make sure it fits in the bar when done editing it. 
Give an option to use a timer and clock On the habit bar and how much time we like to spend on our habit. Give more color options in the edit habit bar. 
I hope you read all this. This will definitely make the app much more easier and fun to use especially being able to see the whole text when finishing editing the habit bar. Thank you for the app.

### 4/5 — Help

*2023-10-22, version 5.5*

I am trying to edit one of my goals but when I click the days, it freezes and crashes.

### 3/5 — Can only see the first few letter of your task

*2023-06-18, version 5.5*

I really wanted to love this. Unfortunately they don’t allow you to see more than the first few letter of any task

### 4/5 — Confusing layout

*2022-12-15, version 5.5*

I wish it was just a regular calendar instead of hexagons

### 4/5 — Good app, needs some quality of life improvements.

*2022-03-14, version 5.3*

Good app, needs some quality of life improvements. It would be great if I could group habits together. An example would be “morning routine” and then have stuff like morning stretches, drink water, etc inside of that.

### 4/5 — Love it! But…

*2022-01-17, version 5.3*

I wish I could add notes or comments to each habit to add detail, instructions, or reminders. I’d like to just write “morning routine” and check that every day with the tasks I do listed in a comment now that it’s part of my routine, that way I can focus on the new habits I’m trying to build while still keeping track of my current ones. Could just be a me thing but the option would be nice, partially as a reminder and perhaps just to feel like I’ve already accomplished something lol. I also hope there will be more colour customization options to come. All in all, a great app!

### 4/5 — It’s pretty decent

*2022-01-06, version 5.3*

I wish there was a way to add a start date to a task. Forgot to add the task in the app and now three days later I created the task and it shows todays date and no way to edit it. 🤷🏻‍♀️. But other than that love the app.

### 3/5 — Schedule needs work

*2021-12-21, version 5.3*

The biggest problem with this app is that it can’t handle something like ‘3 times a week’.

You have to choose daily, or specific days.

If I set a goal of weightlifting three times a week I want to be able to pick whatever days work best that week.

I understand part of this is about routine, but for me it’s the small reward from not breaking the chain, and having a record of past successes.

The app FitnessAI has the ability to track number of workouts a week against a target number. Please add this feature.

### 2/5 — Not very user friendly

*2021-06-29, version 5.0*

Annoying that I can’t set my own start date for habits

### 5/5 — Great app

*2020-12-07, version 5.0*

Super clean and user friendly app. Design is perfect. Helps motivate me and keep me on task!

### 5/5 — perfect app - chain habit

*2020-11-01, version 4.6*

amazing app that keeps me motivated creating new habits or replacing the old ones. Minimalist app focused on results. Lovely design and fast. 5 stars 🌟

### 5/5 — One thing missing

*2020-08-08, version 4.6*

Love this app, really helps me to be more productive and organized 🙌

The only thing I would add is the ability to move the order of tasks. When I added first time, did it in chaotic order and then had to delete and rewrite it in the order actually wanna be doing it. Otherwise you have to go up and down too much to find the right habit to tick.

That's the only downside, apart from that I really do recommend the app 👍

### 5/5 — Step by Steo

*2020-06-27, version 4.6*

This app has really helped me achieve various goals in my life. I highly recommend it. “We are what we continually do.”

### 2/5 — Not what I thought it was

*2020-03-05, version 4.6*

This app has a slick look and easy to use but it is not something to use if you are attempting to track your goals. It is more of a reminder of what goals are coming up in the future. I have the pay version which allows you to add more goals but I was under the impression that after several days of use I would get a report of how many days I’ve gone without breaking the chain or something, anything other than swiping the tasks I’ve completed. I don’t really need to know that I am supposed to go to the gym tomorrow, what I want to know is how many times I’ve been this month.  note that I did not turn on notifications, not sure how that is going to enhance this app really. Overall, it’s a nice app but the description mislead me into thinking it was something else.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — It’s a con

*2023-03-03, version 5.5*

Only allowing a person two habits before trying to manipulate them into “upgrading” is a con, especially if such a person might be feeling vulnerable etc.

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2022-07-26, version 5.3*

It’s annoying cuz u have to pay ? What’s the point!! Me as I person I already spend £128+ a month in my horse riding and ice skating what is the point in paying £132+ a month?

### 1/5 — boring

*2022-05-14, version 5.3*

boring never used

### 1/5 — SO.....

*2021-05-01, version 5.0*

Purchased upgrade because I had liked the app, had to delete & when tried to restore purchase - the "Pro Version" can not be found - and neither can the Developer 😳 I emailed for assistance - but have not received a reply. Hence, the poor review.

### 1/5 — It needs more

*2021-02-14, version 5.0*

I am looking for an app that constantly reminds me to do something until done. I paid for premium expecting something like that but have been sadly misled.

### 1/5 — Free DL has almost nothing

*2020-06-30, version 4.6*

Free DL is fairly useless

### 1/5 — Have to pay if you want 2 items tracked

*2020-01-19, version 4.6*

Worst app ever

### 1/5 — APP FROZE. HAD TO COMPLETELY START OVER

*2019-05-04, version 4.5*

App was frozen for over a month no matter what I did. Today I decided to delete the app and completely start over. So sad...

And still:

REALLY WISH I COULD REARRANGE THE ORDER OF THE HABITS IN MY LIST!!! Or if they could auto-organize in order from the least completed to most completed that would be greatttttt. 

However: 

I love this app! I am glad that it is uncomplicated and has a beautiful interface. LOVE! Do not change anything else!🖤🖤🖤

### 1/5 — App frozen

*2017-09-07, version 4.2*

After updating, each time I open the app it freezes. I am unable to scroll through my habits or tap into/log info about them. The push notifications are still coming through, so I'm not sure if this is a bug with Habitat or iOS...

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2015-09-07, version 3.0.2*

Kinda disappointed. Looked like a great idea but the app just crashes. Won't even open after one day and notifications didn't even work.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2025-06-04, version 5.6*

Works really well. Plenty of personalisation options. Hoping one day they’ll introduce habits per 2 weeks etc. Happy it’s not a subscription app but a reasonable one time purchase.

### 5/5 — Enjoy

*2022-09-09, version 5.5*

I enjoy this but I wish there was a huge chart to show your progress in all the “habitats” together since they’re color coded. That would be nice. Other than that I like this as a reminder and an inspiration.

### 5/5 — Great to track your goals

*2022-06-26, version 5.3*

Although I only have the free version it is helpful for me to be able to visualize my progress towards a goal. Habitat also allows me to see the day(s) that I did not work toward or completely my goal. Which I look back on the incomplete days to see what happened those days that kept me from completely my goal. I then go back to hopefully change my habits in order to complete my goals.

### 5/5 — Genuinely Helpful

*2022-06-04, version 5.3*

I am someone who has many bad habits, and has a hard time keeping track of the habits I need to fix. This app allows me to track how long I can keep my goal, and lets me analyze my patterns of weakness, making it simpler for me to focus on what i need to do. This is the most important app on my phone.

### 5/5 — Great UI

*2021-07-16, version 5.1*

Habitat is very easy to use and takes seconds to learn! I love the fact that upgrading doesn’t make you commit to any subscriptions; it’s just a one-time purchase.

### 5/5 — Simple. Attractive. Works.

*2021-06-11, version 5.0*

I needed a quick and easy app for tracking things I needed doing. This works.

### 5/5 — Accountability

*2021-05-03, version 5.0*

It’s a great app to keep you accountable.

### 5/5 — Fantastic App

*2021-04-19, version 5.0*

Limited time of use, but can 100% get behind an app that doesn't log data outside my device, or sell it to third parties. A good habit tracker, inexpensive one time purchase for extra room for more habits, and, a nice interface. Can’t complain at all.

### 5/5 — Fantastic App!

*2021-02-26, version 5.0*

What a great simple habit tracker! Exactly what I’ve been looking for. I’ve tried a lot of different ones and this one is the best by far! Highly recommend this app. Only suggestion I have would be a way to reset habits back to day one.

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2021-02-18, version 5.0*

Exactly what I was looking for!
