Compare TheFor: Habit Tracker with other Apps

TheFor: Habit Tracker covers all the basics - you get unlimited habits for free, streak tracking, reminders, and a clear, motivating overview of your progress. Premium unlocks advanced analytics, backup, color customization, widgets, routines, and a journal—so if you want to go deeper, the option is there.

We did run into a few limitations: there's no way to set monthly or custom frequencies for habits, and backup/sync is only available for premium users and limited to one device. Habit categories or grouping are missing, and we'd love to see more widget options and richer analytics. Still, for most people, the core features are more than enough to build and stick to new habits.

Performance is rock solid. The app launches quickly, navigation is snappy, and everything from marking habits to viewing analytics feels smooth. Animations are polished and never slow things down.

We did notice the occasional delay with widget updates or reminders, but these were rare and never got in the way of daily use. TheFor is a dependable choice for anyone serious about tracking habits.

TheFor stands out for its design. The interface is clean, modern, and genuinely enjoyable to use. Everything feels thoughtfully laid out, and the minimalist look keeps you focused on what matters—your habits. Subtle animations and a calming color palette add polish without getting in the way.

Most customization options (like extra colors) are premium, but the default look is already a cut above most habit trackers. We did spot a few minor quirks with widget alignment, and we'd welcome even more flexibility in widget appearance, but these are small details in an otherwise beautiful app.

TheFor: Habit Tracker is a great value, especially if you're happy with the basics. Unlimited habit tracking and an ad-free experience are free, which is rare. If you want analytics, backup, customization, widgets, and more, premium is available as a one-time lifetime purchase or a low-cost subscription.

Premium is fairly priced for what you get, but if you only want one advanced feature, it might feel like a lot. We'd also like to see backup and sync work across multiple devices. Still, the free tier is generous, and the premium upgrade is worth it if you want to unlock everything.

TheFor is refreshingly easy to use. Getting started takes seconds, and adding or checking off habits is as simple as a tap or swipe. The uncluttered interface means you're never lost, and all the essentials are right where you expect them.

We especially liked how intuitive the daily and weekly overviews are—seeing your progress at a glance is genuinely motivating. Some advanced options, like reordering routines or using widgets, could be a bit easier to find, but overall, habit tracking here feels effortless, even if you're new to this kind of app.

Privacy is handled well. You don't need an account to use the core features, and your data stays on your device unless you choose to back up or sync. The app only asks for essential permissions, like notifications for reminders, and we didn't see any intrusive ads or third-party tracking.

Backup and sync are premium-only and limited to one device, which keeps things simple and secure, but might be a drawback if you want true cross-device sync. For most people, TheFor offers a strong level of privacy and peace of mind.
