habiloop in a nutshell
habiloop is a free habit tracker that runs in the browser and can be installed as an app on iPhone, Android and desktop. You tick off habits in one tap, track amounts like glasses of water or pages, set weekly goals such as 150 minutes of exercise, and can also cut back on habits with a daily limit. Streaks come with freeze days, so one missed day doesn't reset them, and for a holiday or a flu you pause your habits instead of losing the streak. habiloop is run by Daniel Leuchter (Leuchter.ORG) in Germany and paid for by a few ads, only with your consent and never in the daily check-in.

Everything you need. Nothing that guilt-trips you.
One tap, done
Tick, done, confetti. Count habits get a + and − button and a ring that fills up as you go.
Streaks with freeze days
Every 7-day run earns you a freeze day. Miss a day and it melts instead of your streak.
Vacation mode
Pause one habit or everything for a holiday or a flu. Paused days aren't due, so your streak just waits.
Skip a rest day
Rain on running day? Skip today and it counts as neither done nor missed. Twice a week by default, up to you.
Weekly goals
3 runs a week, or a weekly total like 150 minutes of exercise, split up however you like. Streaks count weeks.
Quit or cut back
Set a daily limit, like at most 2 coffees or 0 cigarettes. habiloop counts your days free and never lectures you.
29 ridiculous badges
Night Owl, Comeback Kid, Frozen but Alive. Collect them all and pretend you're not proud.
Calm mode
Not a confetti person? Switch off confetti, vibration and animations. Badges then arrive as a quiet message.
Reminders, only when needed
Push reminders per habit with time and weekdays. They only arrive if the habit is still open that day.
Honest stats
A 365-day heatmap, your best streak forever on display, weekly and monthly recaps. All free.
Your data stays yours
Your habits are only used to run the app. Never sold, never shared, never used for ads.
Free, for real
No subscription, no habit limit, no locked charts. A few quiet ads pay the bills, never while you tick.
How habiloop works
Pick your loops
Start from a template like morning routine or drink water, or make your own in ten seconds.
Tap every day
Open the app, tap what you did. That's the whole ritual. Takes about as long as reading this sentence.
Watch it grow
Streaks stack up, XP rolls in, Loopi does a little dance. You level up from Couch Potato to Loop Legend.
Badges worth bragging about
Some are easy, some take a year. All of them are a bit silly.
First Step
You ticked off your very first habit. Loopi teared up a little.
Hat Trick
Three days in a row. Somebody fetch a hat.
Week Warrior
Seven days straight. A whole week of showing up.
Perfect Day
Every habit due today: done. Chef's kiss.
Early Bird
Ticked off before 7 a.m. The worm never stood a chance.
Night Owl
Done after 11 p.m. Late, but counted.
Comeback Kid
Back after a break of three days or more. Hello again!
Frozen but Alive
Your first freeze day saved a streak. Cool move.
Bookworm
500 pages read. Nom nom.
Hydro Homie
100 glasses of water. Your plants are impressed.
Lift-off
Level 10. Houston, this habit has lift-off.
Around the Sun
365 days. You took this habit on a full lap around the sun.
Who habiloop is for
A good fit if you
- want a tracker that's completely free, without a habit limit
- have quit after a broken streak before
- travel or get sick now and then and don't want to start from zero afterwards
- think in weekly goals, like 150 minutes of exercise, rather than daily boxes
- want to build habits and cut back on others in one place
- use several devices and want the same data on each
- like a bit of play, or prefer it calm: confetti and animations can be switched off
Probably not for you if you
- need to track without an internet connection
- want automatic data from Apple Health or Google Fit
- are looking for an app from the App Store or Google Play
- want to share progress with friends (not available yet)
Questions people ask
Is habiloop really free?
Yes. Every feature, unlimited habits, all statistics. A few ads show up in calm places like the stats page, never in your daily check-in, and only if you allow them in the cookie banner. Say no, and you see no Google ads at all.
Why is there no password?
You log in with a magic link or a 6-digit code sent to your email. Nothing to forget, nothing to leak. Your session stays active for 30 days and renews while you use the app.
What happens if I miss a day?
Nothing dramatic. For every 7 days in a row you earn a freeze day (up to 2 in stock). Miss a day and a freeze day covers it automatically. Your best streak stays visible either way.
What happens to my streak on vacation?
Pause before you go, for one habit or your whole account, from today or a later date, until a set day or open-ended. Paused days aren't due: the streak waits, no freeze day is used and no reminders come. A pause can't be set for days that are already over.
Can I skip a day without breaking my streak?
Yes. "Skip today" in the menu of a habit card marks the day as neither done nor missed. By default you can skip each habit twice a week, and in the habit's settings you can choose anything from 0 to 7.
Can I use habiloop to quit a bad habit?
Yes. Choose "Cut back" when creating a habit and set a daily limit, for example at most 2 coffees or 0 cigarettes. Days without an entry count as clean, with a limit of 0 you see how many days you've been free, and there are badges for 7, 30 and 100 days.
Can I track amounts, not just yes or no?
Sure. Count habits have a target and a unit, like 8 glasses of water, 20 pages or 30 minutes. Tap + and − or hold the button to count fast.
Can I set a weekly goal in minutes?
Yes. Choose "X times a week" for a counting habit and switch to "Weekly total", then enter something like 150 minutes. Every entry during the week adds to it, there's no daily target, and the streak counts weeks.
Can I turn off confetti and animations?
Yes. Calm mode under Settings, Appearance switches off confetti, vibration and Loopi's animations. Badges and level-ups then show up as a short message. If your device is set to reduce motion, habiloop respects that anyway.
What happens to my habit data?
It's only used to run the app for you. habiloop doesn't sell it, share it or use it to target ads. You can export everything as JSON or CSV or delete your account anytime in settings.
Is habiloop in the App Store or Google Play?
No. habiloop is a web app (PWA) you install from the browser: on iPhone in Safari via Share and "Add to Home Screen", on Android via "Install". It then opens full screen from its own icon like any other app.
Do reminders work on iPhone?
Yes, once habiloop is on your Home Screen. Apple only allows push notifications for web apps added there. Open habiloop from the icon and turn on reminders. Reminders only arrive if the habit is still open that day.
Does habiloop work offline?
Not for ticking off. habiloop saves every entry on the server so it's the same on all your devices, which needs a connection. Without one you see a short offline notice. If you forgot to tick something, you can fill in up to 30 days back later.
Does habiloop connect to Apple Health or Google Fit?
No. You track everything yourself with a tap or the + button. There's no import from Apple Health, Google Fit or fitness trackers.
Can I use habiloop on several devices?
Yes. Log in with the same email on your phone, tablet and computer and you see the same habits everywhere. In the settings you can see all active sessions and log out any device.
What happens if I stop using habiloop?
After 3 months without any login, Loopi sends you one friendly email with a login link. If you don't log in within the next month, your account and all your data are deleted, 4 months after your last visit. A pause doesn't stop this, because it doesn't count as activity. Logging in once is enough to keep everything.
