HabitStack helps you build a morning routine that actually sticks. Instead of tracking habits in isolation, you stack small new habits onto the anchors you already do — your first coffee, brushing your teeth — so the whole routine flows in order and nothing gets forgotten. STACK HABITS ONTO ANCHORS Start from something you already do every morning, then stack new habits before or after it. Reorder the stack, set a duration and reminder per step, and build a sequence that feels natural. RUN YOUR MORNING AS A FLOW The Morning Run walks you through the stack one step at a time, so you move through the routine instead of staring at a checklist. A FORGIVING STREAK Keep one streak for the whole routine — with a built-in grace day, skip, and freeze, because one missed morning shouldn't erase weeks of progress. SEE WHAT'S REALLY STICKING The Momentum Engine scores how automatic each routine is becoming and estimates when it could feel effortless — an estimate grounded in habit research, never a promise. Watch your streak calendar and consistency trends build over time. HABITSTACK PRO (optional subscription) The routine builder, morning run, streak, and calendar are free. Pro unlocks multiple routines, your complete history, per-habit consistency, best-time-of-day and weakest-link insights, and shareable weekly reports. - $4.99/month or $29.99/year, with a 7-day free trial - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation; auto-renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel anytime in your App Store settings.

Lumeday is a calm home for your whole day. Instead of a workout app, a water app and a habit app that never talk to each other, you compose one timeline — and get one honest number for how body and mind are actually doing. ONE TIMELINE FOR THE WHOLE DAY Add workouts, hydration, mindfulness and your own custom blocks to a single day spine, reorder them, tick them off, and set a reminder before each one. Build tomorrow in seconds from a one-tap routine, or save your own. LUME BALANCE — ONE HONEST NUMBER A 0-100 daily score computed on your device from six things you actually did: activity completion, movement, hydration, mindfulness, sleep and seven-day consistency. Any dimension with no data that day is left out and the rest are reweighted, so the score is never padded and never punishes a gap. Tap it to see exactly what moved it. A STREAK THAT FORGIVES Qualifying days build a streak that survives one miss a week, with milestones grounded in real habit research rather than the 21-day myth. PROGRESS YOU CAN READ Hydration, movement, mindfulness, sleep and mood each get a trend and a plain change against your own last seven days. Set specific goals and watch a ring fill, with a projection of when you will reach the target at your current pace. A CONTENT LIBRARY THAT SCHEDULES ITSELF Guided breathing, mobility flows, focus and wind-down sessions, filterable by length, type and mood — and any of them drops straight onto your timeline. LUMEDAY PRO (optional subscription) - Cross-domain patterns: whether your mindfulness or hydration days really precede better-scoring days, each rated by strength and shown only when there is enough data to mean anything - Bio-Sync: a plain-language plan tweak grounded in your own numbers - Your full history, the weekly review ritual, a shareable summary, premium sessions and unlimited routines - 9.99 US dollars per month or 59.99 US dollars per year, with a 7-day free trial - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation. The subscription auto-renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage or cancel in your Apple ID Settings The whole timeline, your streak, reminders and today's balance stay free, forever. Lumeday offers general wellness guidance to help you organize healthy habits. It is not medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Targets are general references and vary with your body, activity and health — talk to a clinician about your own needs.
