Avocation vs Everyday

Avocation is a habit-tracking app for planning daily routines and setting goals. It includes lessons on habit change, including ways to build helpful habits and break unwanted ones. Users can choose goals ranging from learning a language to saving for retirement, with habit templates and reminders available. Completing a habit grows a plant, and missing a day does not trigger a streak penalty. The app is available on Android and iOS; the iOS listing says it requires iOS 12.0 or later. The free version is available without charge or registration, though feature limits may apply. The Ireland App Store listing sets the free allowance at up to three habits. Registration is generally not required. The privacy policy says the app uses no cookies and requires no device permissions. It uses Firebase for app usage analysis, performance monitoring, and error logs, with data described as anonymized. Habit recommendations are informational, not medical care.

Everyday is a habit tracker built around a visual board for forming habits and monitoring personal goals. The board displays current and longest streaks, completion rates, and other progress statistics at a glance. You can create habits that are not daily, skip individual days, or exclude weekends. Email reminders include a prompt intended to help prevent missing a habit twice in succession. Habits can be sorted and assigned colors, while names support Cyrillic, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Arabic, and emoji characters. Everyday says data is synchronized, available across devices, and backed up. The service runs on the web, macOS, iOS, Android, and Chrome or Firefox extensions. The free plan costs nothing, allows up to three habits, and includes unlimited storage, yearly visualization, reminders, and listed platform access. Premium adds unlimited habits and additional history and insight features; Lifetime includes premium features forever.
