VerifyHabit

VerifyHabit only counts habits it can verify. No checkboxes, no honor system — your iPhone and your health data are the witness. Any tracker that syncs to Apple Health counts: Apple Watch, Garmin, WHOOP, Oura. WHAT COUNTS · Up and moving by your alarm — dismissed by getting up, confirmed by motion · Awake on time — your sleep data is the witness; any alarm counts · Workout, run or ride — duration, distance and heart rate from your tracker · Screen time — stay under your morning limit, verified by iOS itself · Ship code — commits pushed to GitHub, on any branch; private repositories included, and your code is never read · Steps, sleep, mindfulness, weigh-ins, daylight, stand hours, exercise minutes, flights — read from Health If a signal isn't there, the habit honestly shows as unverifiable. VerifyHabit never fakes a green check — a calibrated "can't confirm" beats a false "done". YOUR CONSISTENCY SETS YOUR PRICE The first week is free. After that it's $4.99/month (or your local equivalent), and from month two, your weekly verified consistency earns your rate down the ladder — $2.99, $1.99, or $0.99 for the next month. Nothing to claim, only what you prove. Miss a week, and the price climbs back. It's a membership you re-earn — like a gym that gets cheaper the more you actually show up. ON YOUR WRIST The Apple Watch app shows what's left today and where the week stands — with complications for every face, Smart Stack included. BUILT PAPER-FIRST A calm, ledger-style interface. No confetti, no streak-shaming, no ads, no third-party analytics. Your raw health data never leaves your device — only verified/missed outcomes sync, to score your week. THE DETAILS · Membership: $4.99/month (local pricing applies), auto-renews until canceled · Earned discounts apply as one-cycle offers, re-earned weekly · Up to two rest days a week are excluded from scoring · Cancel anytime in App Store settings · Delete your account (and all server data) directly in the app Terms: https://verifyhabit.com/terms Privacy: https://verifyhabit.com/privacy
