About

Habit Loops

Features

Complete your Habit Loops to become who you want to be. Habit Loops is a smarter way to build consistency—by focusing on progress instead of perfection. Each habit is represented as a loop that fills as you make progress. Swipe not just to log habits—but to see them build in real time. Most habit apps rely on streaks and simple checkmarks. Miss a day, and everything resets. That works in theory, but not in real life. Habit Loops replaces streaks with progress loops—a flexible system that lets you make meaningful progress even on imperfect days. Build habits that actually stick. Instead of asking “Did I complete this or not?”, Habit Loops asks: “How far did you get today?” Every action contributes to filling a loop. Whether you do a little or a lot, you’re always moving forward. • Read 10 pages → progress counts • Do 5 minutes → progress counts • Complete part of a workout → progress counts This removes the all-or-nothing pressure and makes it easier to stay consistent long-term. • Miss a full session? Partial progress still counts • Short on time? Do a little instead of nothing • Lost momentum? Pick up where you left off No resets. No guilt. Just progress. Not all habits are the same. Habit Loops gives you three flexible tracking methods: 1. Time-based tracking Perfect for habits like reading, studying, meditating, or working out. Set a target (e.g., 30 minutes) and track your time as you go. 2. Count-based tracking Ideal for measurable outputs like pages read, reps completed, or tasks finished. Example: 50 pushups, 20 pages, 10 tasks. 3. Session-based tracking For habits that are simply about showing up. Example: 1 workout, 1 meditation session, 1 practice. You choose what fits your habit—no forced structure. Built-in Pomodoro & focus timer Stay focused without leaving the app. Habit Loops includes a built-in Pomodoro timer and flexible stopwatch so you can: • Work in focused intervals • Track time-based habits automatically • Build momentum through structured sessions Whether you’re studying, working, or training, you can start a timer and immediately begin making progress. Features: - Create habits with name, identity statement, icon, and colour - Three metric types: Time (minutes), Count (reps/units), Yes/No - Build or break habit types - Daily or weekly frequency - Weekly scheduling: specific days (Mon/Wed/Fri) or X days per week - Track overachieved goals. - Edit or delete habits with swipe actions - Rest day detection — dims cards and rings on non-scheduled days - Day / Week view toggle - Tap card to open habit detail - Summary stats row (minutes, sessions, completion %) - Overall completion percentage across all habits - Pomodoro timer & Stopwatch - Weekly, monthly, Annual, and Lifetime stats - Badges & achievements grid - Dark / light mode toggle - No account needed. Data stored securely on device.
