Habit Head

Be who you want to be

Few of us believe that we are already the best that we can be. Whether spiritually, physically, socially, financially or at work, we aspire to change for the better.

This means changing what we do. The key to permanent change is to change your "auto-pilot settings," a.k.a. your habits.

That's what Habit Head does.

Your phone can have a powerful influence on your behavior. You can turn this to your advantage with Habit Head, an easy-to-use phone app. Using the latest evidence-based research in behavioral science, and the collective wisdom of other users like you, Habit Head enables you to achieve your personal goals by discovering what works for you.

Habit Head employs numerous behavior-change techniques that have been proven to work in academic studies.

Recipes for Action

The central idea in Habit Head is the "Habit." This is a behavior that you wish to cultivate. In the app, a Habit is formatted like a recipe, with a goal, a motivation, a trigger or cue, a schedule and an action. The action consists of one or more steps; each step can have a photo or a video associated with it.

Track Performance

For each Habit, Habit Head shows a graphical summary of your performance to date, with a summary of the past week, plus a 'streak length' indicator.

Tap on a date-bubble to record your performance for that day. Each date-bubble is a mini-pie-chart allowing you to record multiple turns per day for each habit.

Chats and Group Chats

Each Habit has a dedicated chat window for comments and encouragement from people with whom you are optionally sharing your performance on that Habit.

Browse the Habit Store

What works for one person may not work for another. Habit Head encourages you to experiment to discover what works for you by exploring the Habit Store, a library of Habits contributed by other users.
