What is a Streak?

In Habitify, a streak refers to a continuous chain of days during which you successfully complete your habit and achieve your goal. It is a powerful motivational tool that encourages you to keep up with your habits consistently.

How streak is calculated?

The calculation of the streak is based on the "Repeat" setting of your habit. The "Repeat" setting determines on which days you need to accomplish your goal to maintain the streak.

Let's see some examples to understand how your streak can be formed in Habitify.

Repeat = Daily

Example: Your habit "Read Books" has a goal of "1 time per day" and repeats "Daily"

  • To keep the streak continuing, you need to check in every day and achieve your habit goal.

  • Using the "Skip" option can help you protect your streak for a day when you can't or don't want to perform the habit.

  • However, if you don't check in or check in as "Fail," the streak will end.

Repeat = [specific days]

Example: your habit "Yoga" has a goal of "1 time per day" and repeats on "Mon, Web, Fri"

  • In this case, you only need to accomplish your goal on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays to maintain the streak.

  • Skip on the scheduled days or check in on other days won't change the streak.

  • No check-in or "Fail" on any of the designated days (Mon, Wed, Fri) will end the streak.

It's important to note that the streak is primarily based on the "Repeat" setting. To maintain the streak, you must check in on the exact days specified in the "Repeat" setting. Even if you complete your habit goal but fail to check in on the designated days, your streak will reset to 0.

Where to see your streak

You can say that "Streak" is a core value of Habitify. For us, it is a big motivation we want to give our users. Therefore, we place it in any possible place.

in the journal view

We show the streak on the Journal view along with your habits so you can have your motivation.

  • In the Journal with habit icons, you can see your current streak by the number under the icon.

  • In the Journal with no icon (only available for accounts created before September 2021), it is the fire on the left side of your habit.

Please note: if there is none, it means that your last streak has gone and you have to start a new one again.

in the single progress view

In the single progress view, the first thing you see is the streak.

Otherwise, you also can review all the streaks you have with your habit right below the Calendar view.

in the overall progress tab

You can get a view of a small report on each of your habits within the overall progress tab. From that report, you will know which is the longest streak you get for that habit in the selected time range.
