Streaks: twelve habits, one purchase, no subscription

Streaks is the habit tracker for people who dislike habit trackers. No pet, no levels, no social feed. A grid of twelve, a streak counter, and nothing else.

What it gives you

A hard limit of twelve habits. This reads as a restriction and works as a feature: the failure mode of habit tracking is adding thirty things and keeping none. The ceiling forces a choice.

Apple Watch and Health integration done properly. Habits tied to Health data — steps, workouts, mindful minutes — tick themselves off. That removes the single biggest reason people stop logging.

A one-time purchase. No subscription, no ads, no upsells, in a category where almost everything is rented.

What it costs

Money up front, with no trial.

Apple only. There is no Android version, so a change of phone means losing the history, and a household on mixed platforms cannot share the approach.

English only, per the App Store listing.

Who it is not for

Anyone tracking more than a dozen things — the ceiling is not adjustable.

And anyone who needs motivation from outside. Streaks assumes you already want to do the thing and only need a record; if that assumption is wrong, Finch or Habitica will hold you better.
