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.
