Visualize, track, and optimize every pattern that shapes your day: simple check-offs, deep focus sessions, and the numbers that matter to you. And it's completely free. Every feature. No subscription, no ads, no account required. THREE WAYS TO TRACK • Check-off Loops — perfect for daily habits like "Make Bed," "Take Vitamins," or "Call Mom." • Session Loops — built-in timers for "Reading," "Meditation," or "Deep Work," with pause and resume. • Numeric Loops — log any value: weight, gym reps, glasses of water, pages read, daily spend. Organize everything into colorful categories that fit your life, on schedules that fit your week — daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly. ANALYTICS THAT ACTUALLY TEACH YOU SOMETHING • Consistency Heatmap — a full year of progress at a glance. • Trend Charts — watch your numeric loops climb (or fall) over time. • Momentum Velocity — know whether you're building or losing steam. • Temporal DNA — discover the hours of the day you actually perform best. • Habit Synergy — see which habits reinforce each other. • Streak Projections — how long until you hit your next milestone. BUILT FOR iOS, PROPERLY • Interactive Widgets — check off loops right from your Home Screen or Lock Screen. • Live Activities — your focus timer stays on the Lock Screen while you work. • Siri Shortcuts — start, finish, or check on your loops with your voice. • Apple Watch — close your loops from your wrist. • Full light and dark mode support. • Export everything to CSV whenever you like. PRIVACY FIRST Your data is yours. Everything lives on your device and syncs privately through your own iCloud. No accounts, no tracking, no analytics harvesting, no selling your data — ever.

Every feature is free because habit tracking shouldn't have a paywall between you and a better routine. Download Looops and close the loop on the life you're building.

Habit Pocket is a habit tracker for people who want the numbers, not just the checkmarks. Log your bedtime as 23:40 instead of "slept OK". Log 7,412 steps, 2.1 L of water, 76.4 kg, and your mood on a scale you define. It all sits on one grid: a row per habit, a column per day, like the spreadsheet I kept for years before I built this app. Then you look at it. Do late nights drag my energy down the next day? Do I walk more on weekdays? The charts answer that in a few taps. HABIT TYPES • Yes/No: meditated, took vitamins, no phone in bed • Numeric: steps, pages, water, weight, with a unit and an optional goal (at least, exactly or at most) • Time of day: wake-up, bedtime, first coffee • Select: pick from your own list, like mood, energy or workout type • Avoid: things you're cutting back on. An empty day counts as clean, a tap is a slip • Apple Health: steps, active energy, workouts, heart rate, weight, water and more fill in by themselves (53 metrics, read-only) THE GRID Every day is a cell. A deeper colour means a longer streak. A half-filled cell is a planned skip, so a sick day pauses your streak instead of breaking it. Days you exclude (no gym on Sundays) don't count against you. The Today screen shows only what's left to log, and the plus button opens any habit type. STATS AND CHARTS Every habit gets its own page with stat cards (streak, completion, average, latest) and a heatmap. On the Dashboard you keep only the charts you care about: • Line charts with a 7-day average, one habit or several on one timeline • Candle chart: bedtime and wake-up as one bar per night, even across midnight • Completion by weekday and by month, and answer shares for select habits • Summary cards, including days-when comparisons: on days I walked 10,000 steps, how was my energy?
