Arhbit helps you build lasting habits through consistency, not perfection. Track your daily habits with a clean, calming interface designed to keep you focused on what matters; showing up every day. Whether it's reading, exercising, drinking water, or calling a friend, Arhbit makes it simple to build the routines that shape your life. HOW IT WORKS Create a habit, set your schedule, and start checking in. Arhbit tracks your completions and streaks automatically. A beautiful GitHub-style heatmap shows your progress over time so you can see exactly how consistent you've been — no guesswork, just data. FLEXIBLE TRACKING - Daily, weekly, or specific-day schedules - Multi-completion habits (e.g., "Drink 8 glasses of water") with tap counters - Single-tap completion for simple habits - Current streak and best streak tracking HEATMAP VISUALIZATION Every habit gets a 90-day heatmap grid inspired by GitHub's contribution graph. At a glance, you can see your strongest days, spot gaps, and watch your consistency grow. The heatmap uses your habit's own color, so each one feels personal. BOUNCE BACK RECOVERY Life happens. When you miss a few days, Arhbit doesn't shame you, it helps you recover. The Bounce Back system detects when you've fallen off track and generates a personalized comeback plan. Pick what got in the way, get a micro-step to restart, and stack a few clean wins to rebuild momentum. ACCOUNTABILITY PARTNERS Assign a trusted partner to any habit. Arhbit sends escalating notifications — first to you, then to your partner — if you fall behind. You control exactly how accountability works: reminders, critical reports, partner alerts, and even meeting scheduling. Everything is consent-based and revocable. HOME SCREEN WIDGETS Glance at your progress without opening the app. Arhbit includes iOS home screen widgets: - Streak counter with your current streaks - Weekly progress overview - Interactive habit widget for quick check-ins INSIGHTS & ANALYTICS Track your overall performance with detailed insights: completion rates, streak history, best days of the week, and trend analysis. Understand your patterns and adjust your approach. DESIGNED FOR CALM Arhbit uses a warm, earthy color palette inspired by natural tones — no harsh blues or aggressive reds. The interface is minimal and purposeful. Every screen is designed to feel like a moment of intention, not another task on your to-do list. PRIVACY FIRST Your habit data stays yours. Arhbit uses secure authentication through Apple Sign-In and email, and your data is never sold or shared with advertisers. Start building the habits that matter. One day at a time.
