Habitify vs Habits

Habitify is a habit tracker for building routines, setting reminders, marking habits complete, and reviewing progress. Its tracking views include metrics, milestones, streaks, and calendar history. Users can challenge friends or join monthly challenges with leaderboards. Other listed tools include a timer, notes, mood tracking, and a privacy lock. Habitify integrates with Apple Health, Google Fit, Apple Calendar, Zapier, and IFTTT, and runs on Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and the web. The Free plan allows three habits and includes cross-platform sync; advanced reminders, calendar integrations, Apple Health, and API and automation are unavailable on that tier. Premium costs $2.49 a month when billed annually at $29.99 a year, $10 a month when paid monthly, or 59.99 USD once for lifetime access. Its API requires a paid subscription and has a limit of 500 requests per minute per account. Habitify says habit data is stored pseudonymously and reminder location data is not stored on its servers.

Habits is a daily tracker for building routines, maintaining consistency and viewing progress on iOS and macOS. It supports daily, weekly, counter, timer and flexible habits, with reminders, streaks, trends, milestones, analytics and weekly insights. Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, plus Control Center support, provide access across Apple devices. AI Suggestions use Apple Intelligence when available and on-device Smart Tips otherwise. Selected Apple Health metrics—steps, calories, distance, exercise minutes, sleep and workouts—can complete habits automatically. Habits requires no account and stores data locally; optional iCloud Sync uses the private iCloud database linked to the user's Apple ID. The privacy policy says it collects, transmits and sells no personal information, operates no servers, and uses no third-party analytics or advertising SDKs. Health metrics are read on-device, not written to Apple Health, and raw samples are not sent to servers. Data can be exported as CSV or JSON. The free plan costs nothing and allows two active habits. Premium costs $4.99 a month, $29.99 a year or 59.99 USD once.
