A quick look at Habitao.
A simple list showing only what matters today.

Three simple steps, no over-engineering.
Add a few habits that actually matter to you. Name them in your own words. You can add emojis, too
Use the Today screen to mark what you did. No complex flows – just tap and move on. If you forget to mark for today it's okay - you can backtrack completions for previous days.
Your yearly heatmap, Statistics calendar and Tao’s celebrations make it obvious how your tiny steps add up. This motivates you to keep going and you enter an upwards spiral of continuous improvement.
Why most habit trackers fail?
You install a shiny new habit app, set up ten habits with good intentions, and within a week it feels like another noisy to-do list. Most habit trackers accidentally punish you for being human.
If any of this feels familiar, you're not alone.
Endless badges, leaderboards, and notification storms turn your habits into another source of stress.
You spend more time tweaking settings, tags, and automations than actually doing the habits.
Miss one day and your streak is gone. Suddenly it feels like you ruined everything and stop altogether.
Why track your habits?
Tracking turns vague intentions into visible progress. When you log your daily habits, you can spot what works, adjust what does not, and stay consistent without guesswork.
- Clarity: see patterns across days and weeks so you can improve what matters.
- Momentum: quick check-ins keep you moving, even on busy days.
- Feedback: streaks, stats calendars, and heatmaps make progress obvious.
Habitao keeps this simple with a focused Today list, streaks, a stats calendar, and a yearly heatmap.

Built by one person who actually uses it.
This app was built with lots of ❤️ and ☕. I'm big on building good daily habits that you live by and wanted to have an app to track my personal habits. After installing and trying a few different apps I was disappointed by how difficult, unintuitive and complicated they were. I wanted something clean, beautiful, simple and intuitive and I couldn't find it.. so I built it myself - for myself. But I am not selfish :) so I'm releasing it to the world. Maybe other people will find it's right for them, too. 🙏
I designed Habitao around slow, steady progress. The turtle mascot isn’t an accident – it’s how I want to live. Disciplined and consistent. Remember - it's a marathon, not a sprint. If that resonates with you, maybe this app is for you. I’d love for you to try it.
Small celebrations, long-term progress. No sprinting, no burnout – just tiny steps adding up over time.
