Habit Star vs Shared Calendar

Habit Star helps you keep doing the things you meant to keep doing. Check a habit off and it is done. That is the whole daily loop — one tap, on a screen that shows today and nothing else. Everything below is what the app does with those taps once you have been at it a while. BUILD THE HABIT • Daily, every other day, chosen weekdays, or a number of times a week • Several times a day, if that is the shape of it • Reminders at the times you pick, worded the way you want • Streaks, and a star when you reach a goal you set • Drag habits into the order you actually do them SEE WHAT HAPPENED • The month as a calendar, every day green, amber or red • A timeline where a run of days draws as one unbroken line • Momentum, consistency by week, and the days you tend to skip • Your record and your current run, side by side RECORD MORE THAN A CHECKMARK • Add fields to a habit — minutes, reps, weight, how it felt • Set a target and see how often you hit it • A journal of every note and value you have written, searchable by word or by meaning ON YOUR HOME SCREEN, YOUR WRIST, AND BY VOICE • A widget you can check habits off from without opening the app • A progress ring and your perfect-day run, on the home and lock screens • "Hey Siri, mark meditation done in Habit Star" • An Apple Watch app with today's list, and complications for the watch face APPLE HEALTH • Link a habit to steps, exercise or mindful minutes and let it check itself off • Read-only and opt-in per habit. It only ever adds a completion, never removes one ON NEWER IPHONES • Describe a habit in a sentence and the form fills itself in • Write "ran 5k in 28 min" as a note and the numbers land on the habit's fields • Apple's own model, running on the phone. Nothing is sent anywhere. iOS 26 on iPhone 15 Pro or later YOURS TO KEEP • Everything lives on your device.
