Habits guide

Use Habits one step at a time, then return to this guide whenever you need a refresher.

The instructions follow the mobile app; a label may be slightly different when your app language changes.

Create a habit

  1. Open More → Habits. Tap + to open the library, choose a template, or tap the library’s + to create from scratch.
  2. Choose a name, colour, icon and tracking type: Check, Count or Avoid. Set the schedule, start date and optional reminder, then tap Create habit. Ember-linked habits start from the Ember category in the library.

Log today

  1. Use the date arrows on the Habits home. Tap a count habit’s progress ring to add its configured step; an Ask me step opens the amount sheet.
  2. Check and Avoid habits record the selected day directly. A completed count habit can keep increasing. Use the separate undo action to remove a recorded value and confirm when asked.

Review past days

  1. Open the habit and choose Log. Tap the pencil beside a past day to open its amount sheet with the current value already filled in.
  2. Enter the complete value for that day, then tap Save. This replaces the day’s value rather than adding to it; zero clears an incorrect count. Future days cannot be edited.

The past-day amount sheet replaces the recorded total when Save is tapped.

Ember activity

  1. Tap +, choose the Ember category and pick a linked activity such as Journal or expense logging. Review its prefilled form and create the habit.
  2. The source activity supplies its progress. Open that activity from the habit’s arrow instead of marking it manually. A template already added opens the existing habit for editing.
