Daychain.

Build habits that actually stick.

Daychain tracks one thing well: whether you did the habit today. You set a reminder time for each habit, check it off when you are done, and watch the streak counter climb. On Sunday, the weekly review screen shows you the full week at a glance.

Start free, no card needed

The free plan covers 3 habits and basic stats. Set up takes about two minutes.

How it works

  1. 1

    Add a habit, pick your days

    Name the habit and choose which days it counts, every day or just weekdays, and Daychain only asks about it on those days.

  2. 2

    Set one reminder time

    Use the daily reminder time picker to set a single time per habit, and you will get one notification at that time and none after it.

  3. 3

    Check it off, review on Sunday

    Tap the habit when you finish and the streak counter goes up by one, then open the weekly review screen on Sunday to see your hits, your misses, and your longest run.

“I have meditated 47 days in a row. The streak counter is the only thing that kept me going through March.”

Questions

What happens if I miss a day?

That streak goes back to zero and a new one starts the next time you check in. Your past streaks stay in your history on Plus, so a broken run is still counted, just not current.

Can I change my reminder time?

Yes. Open the habit, use the time picker to choose a new time, and the change applies from that day on. Each habit keeps its own time, so a 6:30 meditation reminder and a 9:00 reading reminder can sit side by side.

Does the weekly review screen show anything besides streaks?

It shows which days you completed each habit, your completion rate for the week, and a short note field where you can write what got in the way. It takes about a minute to read.

How do I cancel Plus?

Cancel from the billing screen in settings, in two taps. You keep Plus until the end of the period you paid for, then your account returns to Free and anything past 3 habits becomes view only.
