10 Best Habit Tracker Apps of 2026

Streaks, made by Crunchy Bagel, is an Apple Design Award winner and holds Editors' Choice on the App Store, where it sells for $5.99 once. You choose up to 24 habits and build a run of days in a row; habits can repeat daily, on chosen days, a set number of times per week, month or year, or every few days, so a three-times-a-week gym habit does not break on rest days. The reminder logic is the most useful detail for routine builders: a nudge arrives around the time you usually finish a habit, and only if you have not done it. Streaks reads more than 80 types of Apple Health data, so steps, workouts, sleep, water and mindful minutes tick themselves off, and Screen Time habits track time spent in apps. Statistics cover current and best streaks, completion rates and history. There is no sign-up; data stays on your device and syncs through iCloud. The limits are clear: no Android version and a 24-habit ceiling.

Habitify, built by Unstatic since 2016, says it has helped 3M+ people form over 20M habits. In April 2026 it moved to three tiers. Free covers core daily habits. Plus, listed at $29.99 a year on the US App Store, unlocks unlimited habits and custom group areas. Pro, at $8.99 a month, $49.99 a year or $119.99 lifetime, adds advanced insights, Apple Health sync, integrations and pomodoro and stopwatch timers, with a 7-day free trial. The strongest feature for routine builders is automatic logging: with your consent, walks, runs, sleep, meditation and screen time are pulled from Apple Health, Google Health, Fitbit, Strava, Screen Time or RescueTime. Reminders can be stacked on an existing habit, as in after my morning coffee I will read 10 pages. It also connects to AI assistants through MCP. The catch is that the automation people buy it for sits in Pro, so budget $49.99 a year if that is the reason you want it.

Loop Habit Tracker, by Álinson S. Xavier, is free and open source under GPLv3, available on Google Play and F-Droid, with 5M+ downloads on Google Play. Its main idea is a habit score next to the streak: the app uses exponential smoothing, so each repetition strengthens the habit and a few missed days after a long run do not reset you to zero. The FAQ says a perfectly kept daily habit reaches 80 percent after one month, 96 percent after two and 99 percent after three. Schedules are flexible: you set how many times per period, such as 2 times per week, and the app fills in the rest. Each habit gets one reminder you can check, dismiss or snooze from the notification. There are no ads or online accounts, and data never leaves the phone unless you export it to CSV or SQLite. The trade-offs are an Android-only app, no sync, and no bad-habit tracking; the FAQ suggests rephrasing, such as a smoke-free day.

TickTick is mainly a to-do list and calendar app, but its habit module is complete enough that many people use it as their only tracker. The free plan tracks up to 5 habits next to 9 lists of 99 tasks each, with cross-platform sync and two reminders per task. Premium costs US$49.99 a year on TickTick's pricing page and raises the limits to 299 habits, 299 lists and 999 tasks per list, with unlimited calendar views, statistics and themes. The Pomo timer helps for time-based habits such as 25 minutes of study, and reminders can fire by time or location. TickTick also offers AI voice capture and an MCP server. Its pricing FAQ says purchases made through Google Play, PayPal or Stripe can be refunded within 14 days, while App Store purchases go through Apple. The downside is density: someone who only wants to tick off five habits will find more menus than they need.

Way of Life, made by Way of Life ApS, a team of two, has tracked habits since 2010. The method is simple: each day you mark a habit green for done, red for not done, or skip it, and the app builds chains and charts from those taps. The charts are its strength for anyone who cares about trends: pie charts, bar graphs with trend lines and a frequency distribution chart cover weeks, months or years, and a scoreboard gives weekly and monthly feedback. Bad habits such as soda or sugar are tracked the same way as good ones, with a diary to note what triggered a slip. Reminders take flexible schedules and custom messages, and data exports to CSV, Excel or JSON. Cloud backup became free for everyone. The App Store listing says Premium simply unlocks unlimited habits, with nothing else behind a paywall. It lists several Premium prices, so we left the price as pending. There is no Apple Health link.

Strides, from Goals LLC, has been built since 2011 and says over a million people have used it. Its four tracker types make it broader than a streak counter: Habit for repeating actions, Target for a number by a date, Average for a repeating number such as sleep hours, and Project for milestones by a date. Target trackers show a pace line so you can see whether you are ahead or behind. The Daily Goals view filters every tracker down to what needs logging now, which suits a morning or evening check-in. There are 150+ templates, unlimited reminders and Apple Health integration. The help center says it is free forever to track your top three goals and habits, and Strides Plus removes that limit and adds sync, backups, progress reports, tags and filters, as a monthly or annual subscription or a one-time Lifetime plan. The App Store lists several Strides Plus prices, so we marked the price pending.

HabitNow combines a habit tracker, to-do list and routine planner in one Android app, with 5M+ downloads and a 4.8 star rating from 93.7K reviews on Google Play. Habits take daily, weekly or monthly goals and can be grouped into categories and lists, and the calendar shows habits next to tasks and events. Timed habits are well covered: there is a stopwatch, a countdown timer and an interval timer for work and break cycles. Reminders and alarms are customizable, and each habit gets streaks, charts and statistics. HabitNow's privacy page says it sells a one-time premium upgrade through Google Play Billing, linked to your Google account and restorable after reinstalling. Free users' data stays only on the device; premium users can turn on cloud backup, stored in pseudonymous files. The premium license cannot be shared or resold, and we could not read a US price from the store page, so pricing is pending.

Habitica treats your routine as a role-playing game. You create an avatar, add habits, daily repeating tasks and one-off to-dos, and every time you check one off in real life you earn gold, experience and items to use in the game. Parties let you team up with friends to fight bosses by completing tasks, which turns a skipped workout into a problem for the whole group, and Challenges offer shared task lists you can join. Color-coded tasks and streak counters show progress at a glance, and there are reminders and widgets. Habitica is open source and run by a small team with volunteer contributors. Its App Store listing says it can be fully enjoyed for free; optional subscriptions cost $4.99 a month, $14.99 every three months, $29.99 every six months or $47.99 a year in the US. The game layer is the reason to pick it and also its weakness: the interface is busier than a plain tracker.

Productive, now part of Bending Spoons, says it has 15,000,000+ downloads and has been featured by Apple and Google. Setup is easy for beginners: you pick from a library of customizable habit templates, give each habit an icon and color, and set when it should run during the day. Programs add daily habit tips, reflection check-ins and motivation prompts toward a chosen goal, and Challenges let you complete guided tasks alongside other users. Statistics focus on chains of completed habits and perfect days. Reminders can be time-based or location-based. The free version is limited, though. The App Store listing puts unlimited habits, improved reminders for individual habits, location-based reminders, per-habit stats and week-by-week habit trends in Premium. The same listing shows many Premium prices, including yearly plans from $19.99 to $79.99 and a monthly plan at $10.99, so the price you see depends on the offer, and we marked it pending.

Fabulous started as a habit tracker and now describes itself as a self-improvement, coaching and mental health platform. It began at Duke University's Center for Advanced Hindsight, and its design follows a coach-led path: you start with a small morning routine, then add habits through guided programs on topics such as sleep, focus or anxiety. Beyond habit check-ins it includes a daily coaching series, a to-do list, a gratitude journal, affirmations, meditations, breathing exercises and short workouts, plus live challenges and bookable sessions with a real coach. It holds Editors' Choice on the App Store. The trade-off is cost and focus. The App Store listing says Premium adds unlimited habits for morning and evening routines along with premium programs and one-on-one coaching, and it lists many Premium prices from $16.99 to $59.99, with a note that pricing varies by country. We could not tie one price to one plan, so pricing is pending. For plain streaks and stats, Streaks or Loop do more with less.
