Create habits, measure them your way, and link them to goals.
Go to Habits in the main navigation and select the My Habits tab. (Habits opens on Today, which only shows what is due right now — new habits are created from My Habits.)
The “+ New habit” button is at the top of the My Habits tab.
Enter the Habit name, then choose the Frequency: Every day, Weekdays, Weekends, or specific days. Icon and Color are optional — a default is used if you skip them.
“What kind of habit is this?” sets whether you are building something up or cutting something back. An avoidance habit is logged as whether you held the line that day.
A habit does not have to be yes/no. “Just did it” is the default, but you can also track Time (30 minutes), A number (3 problems), An amount (20 pages) or A checklist (several small steps). Set a daily target if it helps — pick one you could hit on a bad day.
“Why does this matter to you?” is the field that earns its keep — your companion shows it back to you at the moment you are about to drop the habit. You can also link the habit to a goal or a skill here.
“Make it easy to start” asks for two lines of the habit’s plan: when & where it happens, and a version for a hard day. For a habit you’re cutting back on it asks what sets it off and what you’ll do instead. Each line has a “Learn how” link to the Habit Lab lesson behind it, and the plan then shows beside the habit on Today.
Habits due today appear on the Today tab. Tap one to log it — or ask your companion to log it for you.
The Insights tab shows a heatmap of every logged day, per-habit breakdowns, correlations against mood and sleep, what you’ve tested, and an AI-written recap of your month.
Tap a habit’s name (or its plant in the garden) to open its page: its full plan — when & where, the hard-day version, what might get in the way and your response, and what you’ll do after a miss — any experiment running on it, “How automatic it feels”, and everything you tried for it in Habit Lab.
“Promise yourself something” stores a reward in your own words. Nothing awards it for you — you decide when you have earned it.
Habit Lab (the 🧪 item on Habits) teaches how habits work — motivation, starting small, procrastination, restarting after a slip — and turns each idea into something to try on a real habit. “Improve this habit in Habit Lab” on a habit’s own page opens its lab page.
