Habitify

Overview

Habitify is a habit tracker for people who want routines, reminders and progress views across several devices. It is strongest for users who will use its challenge features or connect habits to other services; those who need more than three habits must pay.

Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Hanoi, Vietnam, Habitify pairs everyday habit check-ins with progress metrics, milestones, streaks and calendar history. Users can create routines, set reminders, use templates, pause or skip habits, and add home-screen widgets. The built-in timer, notes, mood tracking and privacy lock broaden the toolkit without moving it far beyond habit management.

Key features

Tracking and challenges

The combination of streaks, milestones and calendar history gives users several ways to review consistency over time. Challenges with friends and monthly leaderboards add a social goal for people who find shared progress motivating; they are less relevant to anyone looking for a strictly private, personal tracker.

Integrations and API

Habitify lists Apple Health, Google Fit, Apple Calendar, Zapier and IFTTT integrations. Apple Health and calendar integrations, along with API and automation access, require Premium, so the free plan is a limited way to judge those workflows. The API supports programmatic access to habit data and allows up to 500 requests per minute per account.

Privacy and support

Habit data is stored pseudonymously on Habitify's servers, while location data used for reminders is not stored there. The privacy policy describes SSL-secured transmission and encryption in transit, with secure storage for health data. Users can request access to, correction, blocking or deletion of their data, and can revoke consent. For help, Habitify directs customers to [email protected].

Pricing

The Free plan costs nothing and is free forever. It allows three habits and cross-platform sync, a workable starting point for a small routine but a firm ceiling for anyone tracking more. Advanced reminders, calendar integrations, Apple Health, and API and automation are unavailable on Free.

Premium (yearly) costs $2.49 a month, billed annually at $29.99 per year. It retains the three-habit limit while adding advanced reminders, calendar integrations, Apple Health, and API and automation. That makes it the lowest-cost paid route to those features, but not an upgrade for users who need more habits.

Premium (monthly) costs $10 a month, billed monthly, with the same three-habit allowance and paid features. It suits someone who wants monthly billing rather than an annual commitment, at a substantially higher monthly price. Premium (lifetime) costs $59.99, paid once, billed once, and also includes three habits plus those paid features; it is the one-time-payment option, though its listed allowance is no larger.

The plan details also name a Premium option at $10 a month, billed monthly, with advanced reminders, Off mode for breaks, calendar integrations, Apple Health integration, and API and automation. That feature list does not state a habit allowance. Across the other paid plan entries, the three-habit cap remains, so prospective subscribers should weigh that constraint against the integrations and tools they need.

Platforms

Habitify supports web, Windows, macOS, iOS and Android. Its API is another access route for programmatic use, though API access requires a paid subscription.

Who it's for

Habitify fits people who want habit reminders and a structured way to review progress, especially if they value cross-platform sync, challenges or integrations. The free tier is best for a few habits; users with larger routines should consider carefully whether the three-habit allowance on the paid plan entries meets their needs. It is a weaker fit for anyone who wants API or Apple Health access without paying, or who needs a more generous habit allowance at the listed prices.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Progress metrics, streaks, milestones and calendar history make it possible to review habits in more than one way.
• Pros: Challenges with friends and monthly leaderboards offer an optional social element.
• Pros: Web, desktop and mobile support, plus cross-platform sync, suit people who switch devices.
• Pros: The yearly Premium plan includes API and automation, Apple Health and calendar integrations for $2.49 a month, billed annually at $29.99 per year.
• Cons: Free users are capped at three habits, and the paid plan entries also list three habits.
• Cons: Advanced reminders, calendar integrations, Apple Health and API and automation are unavailable on Free.

Alternatives

Choose OpenHabitTracker if a free app with no ads, subscription or in-app purchases matters more than Habitify's paid integrations; it supports Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, web, Windows and self-hosting.

Table Habit (mHabit) is a better match for Android, iOS, Linux, macOS or Windows users who prioritize offline-first use and no account requirement; its free plan also has no ads or in-app purchases.

Habo is an option for people who want an open-source tracker on Android, iOS, macOS or self-hosted systems, with a separate paid sync plan at $1.99 a month.

Everyday also caps its free plan at three habits and supports web, macOS, iOS and Android; its Premium plan adds unlimited habits and other features at a price not listed.

Fabulous is an alternative for Android and iOS users considering a freemium app with a free trial; its Premium plan is $19.99 a month, billed monthly in-app purchase and auto-renewing.

Habits is limited to iOS and macOS, with a free plan for up to two active habits.

Way of Life is another freemium option for Android, iOS and macOS.

Coach.me suits readers who want habit tracking with community Q&A, props and encouragement; paid habit coaching costs $25 a month.

Verdict

Choose Habitify if you want a cross-platform routine tracker with progress history, social challenges and the option to connect habits to health, calendar or automation services. Its main drawback is the three-habit ceiling shown even on paid plans: anyone building a larger routine should look elsewhere or confirm that their intended plan fits before subscribing.
