Streaks

Paid up front and built around a single number, Streaks counts the consecutive days on which you've done each of up to 24 habits. That number is the whole motivation engine: miss a day and the run resets, which is either exactly the pressure you need or the thing you'll come to resent.

It runs on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and Vision Pro with iCloud keeping them in step, and it leans hard on Apple Health, so a walk or a night's sleep can mark a habit done without you touching the phone.

A typical day starts with a glance at the grid of habits, each showing its current count. Some fill in on their own as Health data arrives: steps, water, sleep. The rest you tap when done, and a timed task such as reading runs a small countdown. If something's still undone around your usual hour, a reminder nudges you, and it stays quiet otherwise.

Negative habits work in reverse, so the day counts as a win if you didn't do the thing. By evening the grid is either all ticked or showing you exactly where you slipped.

Mostly because of the Apple Health hookup. Plenty of trackers ask you to log everything by hand; this one can tick off exercise, sleep or hydration automatically from data the phone already holds, and a Screen Time habit can watch your time in specific apps. The one-off price with no subscription is the other draw, since many rivals bill monthly.

With five screenshots on the page there's enough to judge the layout before buying, which matters more for a paid app. What the listing does establish is a design meant to be read in a second: a count per habit, and not much else competing for attention. It has to work on a Watch face as well as a Mac window, and that tends to force restraint.
