Install habiloop as an app in two taps
habiloop isn't in the App Store or Google Play. It's a progressive web app (PWA): you add it to your Home Screen from the browser, and from then on it opens full screen from its own icon like any other app.

iPhone and iPad (Safari)
Open habiloop.com in Safari
Type habiloop.com into Safari. If you came from Instagram or Facebook, first choose "Open in Safari" from the menu.
Tap Share
On iPhone the Share icon is in the bar at the bottom, on iPad at the top right.
Add to Home Screen
Scroll down, choose "Add to Home Screen" and confirm with "Add". The habiloop icon is now on your Home Screen.
In Chrome, Edge or Firefox on iPhone the Share icon sits in the address bar at the top right, the remaining steps are the same.
Android
In Chrome, Edge or Samsung Internet habiloop offers an "Install" button on your first visit. If you dismissed it, open the browser menu and choose "Install app" or "Add to Home screen". A long press on the icon gives you shortcuts to Today and Stats.
Windows, macOS and Linux
In Chrome and Edge there's an install icon in the address bar, and the habiloop header shows "Install app" when the browser supports it. habiloop then runs in its own window. In Safari on macOS use File, then "Add to Dock".
Why a web app and not the App Store?
I build and run habiloop on my own. A web app works on every phone and computer with one code base, updates without a store review and doesn't need a download of several hundred megabytes. You log in with your email and a code, and your habits are the same on every device.
The honest downside: you need a connection to tick off a habit. Without internet habiloop shows a short offline notice, and your data is safe on the server until you're back online.
