Compete → Complete → Get comped. Habit Comp is a habit tracker that keeps score in money. You decide what each habit is worth, check it off when it is done, and the earnings pile into a balance that is yours to cash out. Every week is a round against the best week you have ever had. EVERY WEEK IS A ROUND Today leads with what this week has earned and how far it is from your best finished week. Seven dots for the seven days, and one line for today: what you have earned, and what is still to earn. PUT A PRICE ON EVERY HABIT Daily, weekly or monthly. Worth money, worth points, or simply tracked. Measured habits ("30 pages", "64 fl oz"), a timer for anything counted in minutes, limits you stay under ("at most two coffees"), and slip-ups that cost you. Caps keep the week inside the allowance you set. CHECKS ITSELF OFF FROM APPLE HEALTH Steps, exercise minutes, workouts, water, protein, sleep and mindful minutes can check a habit off for you. Log water or a meditation here and it can be saved into Apple Health too, and it is never counted twice. COMPETE WITH FRIENDS Join a comp: a coach sets the habits and the points, everybody links the habits they already keep, and the same check-ins score the board. Points are points, never money. Weekly standings, a final result, and a record of every rule change for everyone to read. CONSEQUENCES YOU OWE YOURSELF Miss the workout, owe fifty crunches. A penalty is work, not money. The app keeps the ledger of what is owed and what you have paid off. BADGES, RECORDS AND RECAPS Streaks counted in a habit's own period, personal records, a trophy case, and a recap of the week that only says what is true. ON YOUR WRIST AND YOUR HOME SCREEN An Apple Watch app with a press that records the habit, a home-screen widget with the week's grid, a watch complication with today's count, and a Live Activity for a running timer with Pause and Resume on the lock screen. YOUR MONEY STAYS YOURS Habit Comp never connects to a bank and never moves money. It keeps the score; you pay yourself from money you already have and write it down. Every amount is a signed, permanent ledger entry, so the balance can never drift from its history. Free to use. Sign up with an email address, and your habits, your week and your earnings stay in step across your iPhone, iPad and the web.
