Habit tracking app with widgets, $32K MRR: simple, visual tracking

HabitKit is a free mobile habit tracker with visual history, one-tap logging, streaks, widgets, and no account required. Its $32K MRR is verified through the payment provider's API by TrustMRR (RevenueCat), as of September 9, 2026.

What it actually sells

HabitKit is a free habit tracker for iPhone and Android. It is made for people who want to build or track habits. One tap logs the day, and each habit appears as a year-long GitHub-style grid with one small square per day and columns for weeks.

The app tracks completions, rates, and streak records, with results charted month by month. Home screen widgets show grids and streaks for checking habits without opening the app.

How it charges

The pages we read state that HabitKit is free to download and requires no account or sign-up. They do not state a subscription price, purchase price, or other charge for the app. The business is listed in the Productivity and Mobile Apps categories, with the app available on the App Store and Google Play.

Where customers come from

The site lists HabitKit on the App Store and Google Play, which are the clearest visible distribution channels shown. It also publishes guides and advice about habits, including long reads with every source listed.

HabitKit is made by one person, independent app developer Sebastian Röhl in Germany, who also answers support email for HabitKit and FocusKit. The business's revenue-verification profile lists DE as the country.

What stands out

The product combines one-tap daily logging with a visual year-long grid, monthly charts, completion rates, and streak records. It also offers home screen widgets and offline use, with no account required and habit history stored on the device.

The site says HabitKit is trusted by 500,000+ habit builders. It lists a 4.8 App Store rating from 8,714 ratings and a 4.6 Google Play rating from 11,808 ratings. The first HabitKit version reached the App Store in November 2022.

From the official site

Build habits you can see.

Every habit in HabitKit is a grid of small squares, one per day, columns for weeks, and the grid extends through the current week.

there is no account or sign-up, and habit history is stored on your device rather than automatically synced to a HabitKit server.

Where it sits in the data

HabitKit's $32K MRR is higher than 98% of the 5,602 projects with payment-verified revenue in our dataset; the median across them is $150. Within the “Mobile Apps” category (1,546 projects) it is higher than 98% (category median $128). Snapshot: 2026-09-02 to 2026-09-30. The dataset only covers founders who chose to publish their numbers, so it leans toward businesses that work; use it for scale, not as an average.

Currency

All figures are in US dollars as published. A rough yuan or euro conversion is not applied here because prices, taxes and acquisition costs differ by country.

Could you build something like this?

In my view, the demand shown on the site comes from people who want to build or track habits. The pages identify app users but do not describe a separate commercial buyer or a business purchase. Distribution would have to use the mobile app stores and the habit guides and field notes shown on the site.

The hard parts are making daily logging reliable across iPhone and Android, keeping widgets and offline behavior consistent, presenting progress clearly, and handling support. A new version would need to decide how to handle accounts, local history, device changes, and user expectations without changing the core habit-tracking workflow.

Verdict: Needs real work.

One thing to take from it

HabitKit shows a focused product shape: one-tap logging, visual history, streaks, widgets, and monthly records in a mobile app. Its free download, no-account setup, offline use, and on-device history define a simple experience for people checking and tracking habits.
