Futureland is a thoughtfully designed habit tracker that can grow into something more. Start with tracking simple daily habits, then discover how its flexible system lets you capture any kind of progress – from workout stats to creative projects – with both precise metrics and rich media. At its heart is a customizable home screen where you arrange what matters most. Your daily water intake tracker sits next to your meditation streak, while your language learning progress lives alongside your workout log. Each tracker can be as simple or as detailed as you need, combining quick completion marks with optional measurements, notes, and media. Connect with friends when you want to share specific goals or join optional challenges, while keeping everything else private. Create high-score competitions or team challenges to make progress more engaging.

I love tracking habits and I’ve started encouraging close friends and family to do the same. I was not tracking anything prior to Futureland in one central app.” — Pablo, Brooklyn. “Since using Futureland over a long period of time, I’ve come to understand how the power of consistency is correlated to the type of person I am, which has allowed me to develop a much better relationship with tracking my habits” — Tania, Toronto.
