Release notes
HabitPairs is live — one sentence, no streaks
HabitPairs, our seventeenth app, is now available on the App Store. It is built around one sentence, “After I ___, I will ___,” and asks you to fill in both halves: a routine you already have, and one small action to attach to it.
A routine that already happens every day is a steadier cue than a time on the calendar or a burst of motivation. Pour your morning coffee, then write one sentence. Brush your teeth at night, then read one page. HabitPairs keeps that sentence in front of you until it no longer needs to.
Small enough to start
The pair builder puts examples beside every field and checks that the action is something you can do, like “write one sentence,” rather than a mood like “be healthier.” Before you commit, it asks two questions: does the routine really happen most days, and can the action start in under two minutes? Every pair also gets a minimum version, so on a hard day there is still a smaller step.
You can keep two active pairs at a time. The limit is deliberate: each pair stays small enough to stick before you add the next one.
One tap, and no scoreboard
Today shows each pair as the whole sentence, routine first. Mark it Done, move it to Later, or choose Not today, with Undo whenever you change your mind. A pair you put off stays on the list, still one tap from Done.
There is no streak counter, no badges, no points and no confetti. A skipped day tells you something about the pair; it is not a verdict on you.
Reminded in your own words
Each pair can have one optional reminder a day, at the time you chose. It says your sentence, “After I pour my morning coffee, I will write one sentence,” and nothing else. Today works exactly the same with reminders off.
Your habits stay on your iPhone
HabitPairs has no account, no server and no analytics. Your pairs and what you mark each day are stored on your iPhone, and reminders are made and delivered there too. On an iPhone with Apple Intelligence and iOS 26, it can suggest routines and actions on the device; the built-in examples work everywhere else. Choose your own accent color, in light or dark mode, with large text sizes supported. The details are in the HabitPairs privacy section.
