iPhone apps for tracking habits and daily routines
Short answer
Streaks and Habit Tracker are two iPhone options for recording routines and reviewing progress. Streaks emphasises completion streaks and scheduled tasks. Habit Tracker’s listing also describes measurable habits, shared habits and mood records. Both document Apple Health integration; check whether your particular goal is supported.

Keep in mind: The full pricing model is unverified in our catalog. Check feature limits and in-app purchases before relying on a free workflow.
Choose the kind of progress you want to record
Some routines need a simple done-or-not-done check. Others need a count, duration or a target on certain days. Write down two real habits and configure their schedules before choosing. Check how missed days, rest days and retrospective edits affect your history.
Automatic tracking has limits
Apple Health integration is useful only when the app supports the metric you need and has permission to read it. Check the supported goals and permissions in the app. A manual habit such as practising a language may still need you to record completion.
Check cost and portability
An upfront download price and a free download describe different entry points, not the complete lifetime cost. Confirm the features you need on your devices, any paid limits and whether you can export your history. We have not tested notification reliability or long-term behaviour change.
Sources and how we checked
Source-based research; not hands-on testing. We use official product pages, developer listings and support documentation, then flag details that still need checking.
