Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Habit Hub at 4.7 against Early Day's 4.0. Habit Hub also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 weeks) and ratings volume (8.1K vs 5). Early Day's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and review sentiment (100% vs 78%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Habit Hub sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Early Day asks for nothing beyond the download.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Habit Hub holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Habit Hub has 8.1K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Habit Hub's written reviews are positive against 100% of Early Day's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Habit Hub ships an update every 4 days, Early Day every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
