Keep track of activities and goals with HabitHub for Android

HabitHub Habit & Goal Tracker is an application for Android that helps you keep track of activities, goals and rewards.

If you have troubles keeping track of activities and goals, or reaching them, you may need a little extra push in the right direction.

Goal trackers are certainly no one size fits it all solution, but they help you track and visualize progress that you make.

HabitHub Habit & Goal Tracker

HabitHub Habit & Goal Tracker is a free and commercial application for Android. You may use it to set up goals, keep track of those goals, and reward yourself when you make progress.

Habits, that is the application's official term for goals, can be anything that you do regularly. You may add workout or learning sessions, reading hours, activities, watering your plants, cleaning the kitchen, or anything else you can think of to the app.

Each habit that you add uses the same setup process. You pick a name and add an optional description. Then you select the schedule, e.g. twice a week, the start date, and a category.

HabitHub adds the new habit to the apps' start page where it lists the current day and the past seven days.

A menu opens when you tap on a day that allows you to set it to done, fail or skip, and add an optional note to it.

You may open a calendar view and statistics for any habit that you have added to the application. The calendar view lets you change the state for any day since the start of the habit. This can be useful if you are just getting started with the application, but have started the habit earlier.

Statistics provide you with an overview of progress. The page lists the history, best streak, the progress, and a pie chart highlight successes, failures and skipped sessions.

You may add rewards to the app as well. You earn points for sticking with your habits, and may spend those points on rewards that you add to the app. Think of something like "play an hour of video games" if I have "learned Japanese for one hour each day last week".

The settings provide you with a number of interesting options. You may set up reminders for instance, so that you know what you have to do on a day and don't forget it.

You may change the user interface, switch to different themes, enable auto-checking, or enable the automatic back up of data.

The free version of the application is good for tracking five habits. If you upgrade to pro, that limitation is lifted. The premium version offers additional features like adding targets to challenge yourself, support for widgets, or track habits with daily values.

Closing Words

An app like HabitHub Habit & Goal Tracker may help you keep track of your goals, but it works only if you use it regularly.

The app ships with a great design, reasonable permission requests, and good functionality in the free version.
