OpenHabitTracker is a free app for tracking habits, planning tasks and keeping notes. Habits can recur daily, weekly, monthly or yearly, measured by repetitions, time or a target quantity. Tasks can have planned dates and times, durations, checklists and timers; notes support Markdown. Categories and priorities help organize all three item types, and lists can be searched, filtered and sorted. The app imports from Google Keep and supports Markdown, YAML, JSON and TSV file import and export. Its web version works offline and stores data on the device without online sync. By contrast, the self-hosted Docker version stores data online and requires an internet connection. The maker says the app has no trackers and no account. Notifications include daily due-item summaries and reminders before planned task times, though availability depends on platform and whether the app is open. Accessibility support includes keyboard navigation, screen readers and reduced-motion preferences. It is available in 20 languages on Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, Windows, web and self-hosted deployments. The Free plan is 0.00 USD per free, with no ads, subscription or in-app purchases.
