ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

(Not Boring) Habits holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: (Not Boring) Habits has 6.3K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of (Not Boring) Habits's written reviews are positive against 100% of OfflineDay's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

(Not Boring) Habits ships an update every 3 weeks, OfflineDay weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
