Habit streaks suck! They help you get going, but miss a day, and it's all over. Zero. Brutal. Polar Habits is the only habit tracker with no streaks, no guilt, and a momentum system to help you cherish those bumps, bounce back, and keep moving forward!

Review Polar Habits?

Polar Habits is praised for its unique approach to habit tracking, focusing on momentum rather than streaks, which users find motivating and less guilt-inducing. The app's simple and beautiful UI is frequently highlighted, making it appealing and easy to use. Users appreciate the flexibility to track habits without the pressure of maintaining unbroken streaks, which is particularly beneficial for those with ADHD. However, some users note that the app's momentum visualization can become less informative over time and suggest improvements for long-term habit tracking. Overall, Polar Habits is well-received for its innovative and user-friendly design.

I've used Polar Habits for a few weeks. I love the idea behind it, that if you mess up your habit for one day it's not the end of the world. Habit forming should not be a binary thing, win or lose. It's the overall progress that counts and that's why I like what Polar Habits is building. The overall aesthetic is very pleasing too, which is important as it makes me want to come back to use the product each day.

That is an interesting take on forming habits. I love the simple UI and will try it out with two of my habit projects (playing chess and moving more). I'm not easily motivated by streaks that breaks too easily, and curious to try this out!

Thank you, Matt! I'm really glad you think the free plan is reasonable. It's really hard to find the right balance between free and paid features.

Besides being adorable, it's doesn't reset your streak if you lapse. Everybody needs to rest sometimes or misses, Life happens, However, Polar habits lets you pick back up and build on the momentum you've already built. Lovely product, UI is gorgeous yet minimal. Well done!

I have tried several habit tracking tools. One of them was great in that it was easy to use across all platforms (Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, etc.), but when I snapped my streak, it was a terrible feeling. That is where Polar Habits makes a positive contribution to habit tracking. I have found that I continue to persist towards my goals and habits, but if I miss a day, it doesn't blow up in my face and cause unnecessary regret. I pick right back up the next day and build the track forward. I look forward to seeing this tool evolve (i.e. maybe a mobile app, even though creating a shortcut on the home screen works fine and I haven't had to log back in once I bookmarked or placed icon on my home screen!) and to supporting the team behind it. Great software all around.

Thanks so much for the review Cameron! 🙌🏻 That terrible feeling of breaking the streak is exactly what started all this, and I'm so excited to hear you've found the app as helpful as I have over the past few months!

Been using this to track some daily habits like stretching where momentum is what counts. Glad it doesn’t use streaks which make me feel like starting over any time I miss a day. Simple UI.

I've been using this for consistency. The fact that I don't have to feel guilty about making mistakes is another motivation that keeps me going.

I just set it up but I really like the idea of not breaking the strikes without losing all progress. Sometimes I can't keep my habit because of external event (emergency for example) and it's not because I didn't want to do it that day. I put 4 stars because I wasn't able to add a custom start date when I set up the habit.
