It can be used on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and you can sync your data with iCloud. ● 3 Easy Steps 1. Plan 2. Do 3. Reflect That's it! ● Plan Let's decide what day of the week you will go for a run. You can write down your goals so that you can remember your initial motivation and stay motivated. It will remind you why you wanted to make running a habit. ● Do You can check your progress and see the tasks you need to do this week. You can focus only on this week's habit, so you won't be distracted. You can see your progress visually with the progress bar and calendar. If you can't do a task that day and want to carry it over to tomorrow, you can easily do so by swiping or dragging and dropping. ● Reflection It is very important to look back and reflect on what you were able to do and what you were not able to do this week. By objectively evaluating and subjectively recording and saving your thoughts on how to improve as a "Reflection", you can improve the accuracy of your habits each week. You can also check data such as the average and completion rate for each habit. ● Ease of Use Routine is designed specifically for the latest iOS, iPadOS, and macOS, so the app is very smooth and intuitive to use.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: HiveBloom at 4.8 against Habit Tracker's 4.0. HiveBloom also leads on ratings volume (287 vs 2) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). Habit Tracker's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and review sentiment (100% vs 88%). On price, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

HiveBloom holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HiveBloom has 287 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 88% of HiveBloom's written reviews are positive against 100% of Habit Tracker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

HiveBloom ships an update fortnightly, Habit Tracker monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and August 13, 2026 respectively.
