In their own words
Habo
Habo is an open-source habit tracker for building routines on Android, iOS, Linux, and macOS. Users can record a completed habit, numeric entries, missed habits, skips, and notes; progress views show streaks, trends, and completions over time. Reminders, a monthly calendar, categories, reordering, and archiving help organize habits. Tracking works offline, with changes reconciled after reconnection using a Last-Write-Wins CRDT engine. User-created data stays on the device by default. Backup and sync require an account; Habo Sync encrypts data on the device before it leaves, using Argon2id key derivation and AES-GCM with user-controlled keys. The Supabase backend can be self-hosted for free without restrictions. The product also lists data export, backup, home-screen widgets, and a URL scheme for opening the app from Shortcuts and other apps. Habit tracking costs nothing. Habo Sync costs $1.99 a month or $9.99 a year. Habit notes are capped at 400 characters.
