Streaks vs Habitica
Streaks is a focused habit and streak tracker; Habitica reframes habits and tasks as an RPG, with an avatar, experience points, and in-game rewards.
Streaks is a habit and streak tracker for iOS and Android, with per-habit streaks, a heatmap calendar, analytics, reminders, widgets, and an optional global leaderboard.
Habitica turns habits, daily tasks, and to-dos into a role-playing game — completing tasks earns experience and gold for a character, while skipped tasks can cost in-game health. It’s generally available on iOS, Android, and the web. (Feature details and pricing can change — verify current details on Habitica’s official listing.)

Streaks may appeal to you if…

Habitica may appeal to you if…
you’re motivated by game mechanics — earning experience, losing health, and progressing a character — more than visual streaks alone.
