Best Habit Tracking Apps for iPhone and iPad

By Andrew Myrick 0 comments Last updated January 6, 2022

When it comes to New Year’s resolutions, there are many who approach the new year by wanting to develop some new habits or break some old ones. While you can do this manually, using something like a Bullet Journal, you don’t need to rely on pen and paper to try and keep track of everything.

While there’s really nothing wrong with using pen and paper, the fact remains that opting for this method will require you to create yet another habit of remembering to check things off. Luckily, there’s a little computer in your pocket or on your desk that will buzz and ring to remind you to track those habits. These are the best habit tracking apps for iPhone and iPad.

Best Habit Tracking Apps for iPhone and iPad

Streaks

If you were to search for the best habit tracking apps for iPhone, Streaks is the app that you’ll see listed more than any other. And it’s for good reason as the app is simple enough to handle basic habit building, while also being complex enough to help you manage your health in better ways. There are an array of widgets to choose from, which help provide a reminder of tracking new habits. But you can also integrate Streaks with the Health app if you have a certain fitness-oriented goal that you’re trying to reach. As the days go on, you can then view a dashboard of the pertinent information, including statistics, your best streak, and how many times the goal was reached.

Productive

Productive takes a similar approach to Streaks, as you’re encouraged to string some completed habits together while being able to view your progress on a calendar overview. Some prefer the look and feel of Productive over Streaks, but one of the key reasons why you might like this app over one of the other options is the various challenges that are available. These are community-sourced and are a great way for you to try and find new habits to create while adding a little bit of competition to the mix.

Forte² – Habit Tracker

Simply put, Forte is one of the cleanest-looking apps available on the App Store today. It has been designed beautifully from head to toe, and everywhere in between. You’ll be able to create your own custom habits while being able to choose from more than 175 different icons to represent the habit or streak that you are looking to build. With each one of the habits that you add to the list, there’s a beautiful and informative layout that puts all of the pertinent information right in front of you, without needing to dive into a bunch of other menus if you want to see how you’re progressing.

Habitica: Gamified Taskmanager

The problem with some of the best habit tracking apps for iPhone is that they don’t really cater to everyone’s needs. Sure, they can track your habits and provide all of the right information, along with sending reminders. But there’s something to be said about “gamifying” the habit-building process that can really help you stick to your goals. That’s where Habitica comes in with its 8-bit design, offering an interface that is recognizable to pretty much everyone. Instead of just keeping track of your habits by looking at progress bars, you’ll actually level up your own little Habitica character, adding things like Health, Experience, and Mana.

TickTick: To-Do List & Calendar

One question that you might ask if you’re interested in habit building is why wouldn’t you just use a to-do app or task management app? Well, with TickTick, you’ll be able to do just that, and much more. Instead of relying on separate apps to handle your task list and habit tracking, TickTick combines them together, while still providing the necessary customization and reminders that you might need. TickTick is a fantastic app to kick off the year on the right foot, as you’ll be able to keep track of your habits, manage your to-do list, and plan out your month, all from the same app.
