Most habit trackers turn your life into a game. Discipline doesn't. Viceless is a quiet, focused habit tracker for people who want consistency without the noise. No confetti. No leaderboards. No "save your streak" guilt-trips. Just a clear daily ritual: open the app, mark what you did, build the streak. Repeat. The interface is black and white on purpose. The design stays out of your way. Your effort is the system. ——— HABITS, AND THE ONE-OFF THINGS TOO Habits are the daily work. Tasks are everything else — the call you keep putting off, the bill due Friday, the thing you promised yourself you would handle this week. Write a task on a day, set the time you want to be reminded, and it finds you then. Tasks live on their own calendar, apart from your habits, and they never touch your streak. Checking one off frees the slot for the next one. ——— WHAT YOU GET — FREE • Track 2 habits — both of them in your own words, or pick from the library • 2 tasks at a time, each with its own reminder • Daily streak tracking with a week summary • Trend charts (weekly and monthly) • A daily reminder at 3 PM • Weekly journal — one reflection per week • Fix yesterday when life got in the way WHAT YOU UNLOCK WITH PRO • Unlimited habits, as many in your own words as you like • Up to 10 tasks at a time, each scheduled and reminded • Daily journal, with prompts you can rewrite • Full analytics: best day, weakest day, perfect days, monthly breakdown, day-of-week insights • Catch Up — fix any day of the last week, not just yesterday • Home screen widget — your streak and today's progress, always visible • Custom notification schedule — up to 3 reminders a day, your times, your words • Yearly trend view ——— DESIGNED FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE SERIOUS If you've tried other habit trackers and bounced off them because they felt like games, this one is different. There are no streak freezes. No social feeds. No friend graphs. The app does one thing, very well, and gets out of the way. Your streak earns a discipline badge as it grows — Kindled, Ember, Forged, Hardened, Viceless. Quiet marks of progress, not trophies. PRICING New subscribers start with a 3-day free trial on the annual plan. After the trial, Pro is $44.99 per year — that works out to $3.75 per month, 71% less than paying month to month. Pro is also available for $12.99 per month, without a free trial. Subscriptions auto-renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the free trial or the current period.
