Habit Arc
A private habit tracker built for recovery, not streaks
Most habit trackers make one missed day feel like failure. Habit Arc helps you build or reduce habits, recover at the next repetition, and keep your data on your phone. Free, offline, no account, no analytics.
Hey Product Hunt — I’m Yannick, the solo maker behind Habit Arc.
I kept abandoning habit trackers after one missed day broke the streak. The streak was supposed to motivate me, but it made an ordinary bad day feel like a verdict. So I built Habit Arc around a different rule: never miss twice.
One miss does not erase your progress. The app points you toward the next repetition and shows recovery as part of growth. You can also create two distinct kinds of habits:
• Build, for routines you want to grow • Reduce, for habits you want to ease off, with an early warning sign and replacement action
Everything stays on your device: no account, no cloud, no ads, no analytics, or internet permission.
I’d especially value your perspective on two questions:
1. Does recovery-first tracking feel meaningfully different from a streak counter? 2. What would make you trust a private, offline app with the most personal parts of your day?
