About

Habit Commit

Features

Habit Commit makes building habits feel good instead of feeling like a chore. Tick off what you did, commit your day, and watch your grid fill with color, one square at a time. Most habit apps hide your progress in a list you scroll past. Habit Commit puts it right in front of you. Every habit gets its own colorful grid that fills in as you keep showing up, so you can see how you're doing at a glance. WHY HABIT COMMIT - The commit ritual: end your day by ticking off what you did and committing it. A small moment that makes the day count. - Kind to missed days: life happens. A missed day doesn't erase your progress or shame you into quitting. - A grid you actually want to fill: color spreads across your calendar as you keep going. Progress you can feel. - Streaks that motivate: watch your run of days grow, and protect it with streak freezes when you need a break. FEATURES - Goals that fit real life: daily, weekly, or a set number of times. Build the habit around your life, not the other way around. - Your why: save the reason behind each habit and let it remind you when motivation dips. - Streak freezes: take a planned day off without breaking your chain. - Share your progress: export a clean, colorful card of any habit. - Reminders: gentle nudges at the times that work for you. - Timeline and stats: see your history, best streaks, and how far you've come. - Categories, habit diary, achievements, and themes to make it yours. - Widgets and Apple Watch: check in from anywhere. - iCloud sync: your habits on all your devices. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything stays on your device. No account, no sign-up, no tracking. Your habits are yours. HABIT COMMIT PRO Go unlimited with monthly, yearly, or lifetime plans: unlimited habits, all themes, and every Pro feature. Try it and build something that lasts. Habit Commit Pro is an auto-renewable subscription (monthly or yearly); a lifetime option is also available. Payment is charged to your Apple Account and renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage in your Apple Account settings.
