HabitKit 1.19.0 is live 🎉 I rewrote the streak engine from scratch. Streaks are the emotional core of a habit tracker, so this one got extra care.

3/ New grid options: choose how free days look, and how days look once you've already hit your goal. Same rule as always: if you like HabitKit exactly as it is, nothing changes for you. If you love tweaking, there's a lot to play with.

Missed a few days of your habit? Here's how to restart, in 3 steps. 1. Don't wait for Monday. Waiting can turn 3 missed days into 7. 2. Restart today, small. Even 2 pages count.

3. Then add a little each day: 5 pages, 10, 15, until you're back at 20. Small today beats perfect on Monday. Source: Buyalskaya et al. (2023), PNAS, 30,110 gym-goers. Which habit are you restarting?

Read 20 pages a day? That's 7,300 pages a year, about 24 books of 300 pages. Skip one day a week and it's still 20 books. Save this for your reading goal. How many books did you read this year?

Missed a few days of your habit? Don't wait for Monday. In data from 30,110 gym-goers, the longer the gap, the less likely most of them went back. Restart today, even small. Small today beats perfect on Monday. Source: Buyalskaya et al. 2023, PNAS

Can't make yourself go to the gym? Listen to your audiobook only at the gym. In one study, gym visits rose 51% at first; a bigger study still found 10% more workouts months later. The rule: only enjoy it while you do it. Sources: Milkman et al. 2014, Kirgios et al. 2020

The next @HabitKit update will be awesome. Incorporating a huge amount of user feedback I gathered over the past couple of years! This will be the BEST habit tracking app out there 💯

One month off. Does it last? 4 weeks off Facebook: a month later, people reported using it 22% less than those who stayed on. Dry January: people drank less 6 months later, even those who slipped. Sources: Allcott et al. 2020 (AER), de Visser et al. 2016

Don't wait for January. Start one habit today and you're 12 weeks in by New Year: the five parts of a habit, drawn out. Send it to someone who's waiting for January.

Plan your skip days before you need them: in studies, goals with a few planned skips kept people going longer, even after a slip. Source: Sharif & Shu (2017), Journal of Marketing Research

See your habits add up. One tap a day, one square for every day you show up. Look back a month when you need proof it's working. Write one line on the days that were hard. Check your numbers once a week.

Implementing a killer feature for the next habitkit.app update: Automatic iCloud backups. Users have been waiting for this for so long now, sorry about that!
