Chainkeep is a habit tracker built on two ideas: checking off a habit should take one tap, and your streak should be right. Most habit apps break a "three times a week" habit on the first day you rest. Chainkeep counts it the way you planned it: a week kept is a week kept. Daily habits, specific days, every few days, times per week or per month, and habits you are quitting are all tracked honestly. ONE TAP A DAY • Everything due today on one screen, ticked off in a single tap • Skip a day without breaking anything, or pause a habit for a holiday • Split your day into parts, like morning and evening • Quit habits count your days clean • Hold the app icon to add a habit straight away STREAKS THAT FIT YOUR SCHEDULE • Weekly and monthly targets keep their own streaks • A grace day for the odd miss, if you want one • Habit strength shows how established a habit is, even after a slip • Set a finish line, like 30 or 66 days, and watch it come closer EVERY STAT, FREE • Six months of calendar for every habit • Completion over the last 30 days and the last six months • The days of the week you actually do it, and the time you usually do • Longest runs, totals, and a month in review you can share REMINDERS THAT LEARN • A reminder at the time you choose • Smart nudges learn when you usually do a habit and remind you then YOUR LOOK • 24 colour themes to choose from • Light and dark themes, with a pure black option PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no ads, no tracking • Your habits stay on your own devices • Export and import your data whenever you like CHAINKEEP PRO One payment, yours for good. No subscription. • Unlimited habits (free keeps six) • As many reminders as each habit needs • Archive habits you have finished • Sync between your iPhone and iPad through your own private iCloud Your stats stay free, always.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Habit at 3.7 against Chainkeep's 3.0. Habit also leads on review sentiment (37% vs 0%) and ratings volume (2.4K vs 2). Chainkeep's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
