Refill vs Habit Grid
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side โ with what reviewers say about each.
Refill
Read full descriptionHide full description
Refill helps you see the small recurring things that are easy to forget because they are not urgent yet. Instead of building another checklist, create glass orbs that slowly drain as time passes. A full orb can wait. A low orb needs attention. An empty orb means it is time. Use Refill for the quiet things that repeat: watering plants, changing filters, washing sheets, practicing guitar, checking the fridge, calling someone, or any routine you want to keep visible without adding another calendar. When the work is done, press and hold to refill the orb. That deliberate reset keeps each completion intentional. Refill works best for repeat upkeep, not endless task lists. It helps the next small thing stay visible until it is done. Privacy Policy: https://refill.300990.xyz/privacy/ Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
Habit Grid
Read full descriptionHide full description
Habit Grid turns showing up into something you can see. Every habit gets its own contribution grid โ one square per day, filling in as you go. A week of effort is a sentence. A year is a picture you can't argue with. TRACK WHAT ACTUALLY MATCHES THE HABIT โข Yes / No โ exercise, journaling, anything that's simply done or not โข Number โ 30 pages, 8 glasses, 50 push-ups. Going past your target still counts โข Duration โ a built-in timer for meditation, study or practice LOG IT IN ONE TAP Today shows exactly what's scheduled, with the right control on every card: a tick, a "+10", or a timer. Swipe one way to complete, the other to take a rest day. Nothing waits on a network, because there isn't one โ every tap lands instantly, and every accidental one can be undone. STREAKS THAT UNDERSTAND REST Schedule a habit for weekdays and the weekend never counts against you. Take a day off on purpose โ ill, travelling, genuinely resting โ and it's marked as skipped and removed from your statistics entirely, instead of breaking a streak you'd earned. Habit density shows how consistent you've really been on the days that were meant to happen. ON YOUR WRIST The Apple Watch app shows everything due today and logs it in one tap, with eight weeks of your grid on every habit. Complications put today's progress, or a single habit's streak, on your watch face. It keeps working when your phone is out of range and catches up when it's back. WIDGETS THAT LOG Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets show your grid, today's progress and your streaks โ and log a habit without opening the app. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No sign-in. No server. No analytics or advertising SDKs of any kind โ there are no third-party libraries in this app at all. Your habits live on your device and work entirely offline. The only network request Habit Grid can make is to the App Store, when you buy something. FREE โข Two active habits, with full tracking, streaks and history โข The Classic Green grid โข Daily reminders HABIT GRID PRO โข Unlimited habits โข Ten more hand-tuned grid palettes โข Home Screen, Lock Screen and interactive widgets โข Face ID lock โข CSV and JSON export, and backup restore โข Long-range trends and per-habit performance Archiving a habit keeps its grid, streaks and history โ and archived habits never count towards the free limit. Keeping your past costs nothing. Built entirely with Apple's own frameworks, for iPhone and Apple Watch.
