Receiving an invitation to a Habitify Circle means someone thinks you’d be a great partner on their journey toward self-improvement—and they want to be a part of yours. It’s an opportunity to share goals, celebrate victories, and find motivation when you need it most.
How to Join a Circle
Your journey into a Circle begins with a unique invitation link, which you might receive through a messaging app like Messenger, WhatsApp, or email.
Simply tap on the link you received. Your phone will automatically open the Habitify app and take you to the invitation screen.
Tap on the button Request to Join
What happens next depends on the Circle's privacy settings:
If the Circle is public, you'll be added instantly. You can immediately enter the Circle and see other members.
If the Circle is private, a request will be sent to the Circle's creator. You will see a confirmation that your request has been sent, and you'll be notified again once it's been approved.
How to Share your Habits in Circle
Once you're a member, the next step is to share the habits you want to work on with the group. This is the core of the Circle experience, allowing everyone to support one another.
In the Circle you just joined, on the member bar, tap on your own profile picture.
Since this is your first time sharing in this group, you'll see a prominent button that says Selects Habits to Share. Tap on it.
A list of all your personal habits from Habitify will appear. Tap on each habit you wish to share with this specific Circle. Then tap Next.
A final screen will show the habits you've chosen. If everything looks correct, tap Confirm.
Here’s what your fellow Circle members can now see, creating a space for encouragement and accountability:
Your Progress Map: A visual grid of your check-ins for each shared habit in the last 3 months.
Your Habit Goal: The specific goal you've set (e.g., 'Read 20 pages').
Your Current Streak: A number everyone can cheer on as it grows!
Your Privacy is Protected: It’s important to know that only this specific information is shared. All your private notes and mood entries for every habit remain completely confidential.
Manage your Shared Habits
As you progress on your journey, you might want to share new ambitions with your Habitify Circle or perhaps make a certain habit private again. Managing what you share is simple and gives you complete control over your privacy and focus within the group.
In your Circle, on the member bar, tap on your profile picture
Scroll down to the very bottom of your list of shared habits. You will see a button labeled Manage Shared Habits. Tap on it.
You will now see your complete list of personal habits. A checkmark indicates a habit that is currently being shared with this Circle.
To Share a New Habit: Simply tap on any habit in the list that doesn't have a checkmark. It will become selected.
To Stop Sharing a Habit: Tap on a habit that already has a checkmark. The checkmark will disappear, un-selecting it.
Once you have finished adding and removing habits, tap the Next button.
A preview screen will appear, showing you a final summary of which habits will be shared going forward. Tap Confirm.
Understanding what your Circle members see after you make changes is important:
When You Add a New Habit: The newly shared habit will immediately appear on your profile within the Circle. Other members will be able to see its progress map, your goal, and your current streak. However, its contribution to collective achievements like Unity Streaks will begin from the next day.
When You Stop Sharing a Habit: The habit is immediately removed from your public profile within that Circle. Other members will no longer be able to see its progress map or any other details. Rest assured, the collective achievements are protected.
This flexibility ensures that your shared habits always reflect your current focus. Feel free to update your list anytime to keep your Circle journey relevant and aligned with your personal growth.
How to Leave a Circle
Whether a challenge has ended, your goals have shifted, or you simply need to tidy up your app, leaving a Habitify Circle is a straightforward process.
Inside the Circle, tap on the About tab to view the Circle's detailed information and settings.
Scroll down to the very bottom of the 'About' screen. You will find the Leave this Circle button, tap on it.
A confirmation pop-up will appear to ensure you did not tap it by accident. To finalize your decision, tap Leave.
The act of leaving a Circle is instant and has the following effects:
Your Connection is Severed: You are immediately removed from the Circle’s member list.
Your Shared Information is Removed: People in the Circle will no longer see your profile, your shared habits, your progress maps, or your streaks. All information you previously shared with the group becomes inaccessible to them.
You Can No longer See Theirs: Likewise, you will lose access to the Circle entirely. You will not be able to see the progress or shared habits of any other members.
All of your personal habits, data, and progress remain perfectly safe and untouched in your own Habitify account. You can join or create new Circles at any time without any impact on your personal tracking.
You're now part of a team committed to building better habits together. Say hello, check out your friends' progress, and get ready to be motivated.
