7 Best Habitify Alternatives for iPhone in 2026

Updated November 1, 2026 · 9 min read

Checked 20 October 2026. Every competitor detail below comes from that app's US App Store page and Apple's public lookup data, fetched that day, plus developers' own websites where we say so. Left details come from the app itself.

Habitify is a cross-platform habit tracker with a long list of integrations: it can log habits for you from Apple Health, Fitbit, Strava, Screen Time and more, and it runs on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Android and the web. It has 4.6 stars from 7,142 ratings on the US App Store. People look for an alternative when the free plan feels small, when they don't need the integrations, or when they'd rather pay once. Here are seven alternatives, including our own app, and who each one suits.

Disclosure: we make Left, so we have put it first. Here is why, and when another app suits you better.
