Habit tracker · iOS, Android, web

Describe the goal. Keep the habit.

You write one paragraph about what you want. Perge asks 8–10 questions and turns it into a plan you can keep: daily actions that roll up to weekly, monthly and quarterly goals.

How it works

Three steps to a plan

  1. 01

    Describe

    One paragraph, in your own words. What you want, and why it matters to you.

  2. 02

    Answer

    8–10 follow-up questions that change with your goal: when, where, what gets in the way, why it matters.

  3. 03

    Keep

    A plan with daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly goals. You review it before you start, and regenerate it when life changes.

The numbers behind the plan

66 days
The formation window your plan is built around.
2 misses
The default tolerance before a reset. You set it.
2 minutes
The starter version of every habit.

Built so one bad day doesn't end it

Forgiving by design

  • A miss rule you control

    Two misses in a row are allowed by default. The third resets the goal percentage for that period. Set the tolerance anywhere from 1 to 7.

  • Two-minute starter steps

    Every habit ships with a version that takes two minutes or less, like "do 5 push-ups" or "read pages 2–4". On hard days, that counts.

  • Motivation that matches your why

    Reward-mapped motivation cards, tuned to the reason you gave when you set the goal.

Protect the time

Your day, defended

  • Focus blocks

    A countdown for the work that needs it, a short setup checklist first, and a one-tap check-in when the time is up.

  • Calendar time-blocking

    Habits go on a dedicated "Perge — habits" sub-calendar you can hide in one step. By default Perge reads only free/busy from your other calendars.

  • Health auto-check-in

    Workouts from Apple Health or Health Connect check your habits off. Health data is read on your device; only the check-in leaves it.

Why 66 days

Built on the research, not a streak counter

In a 2009 habit-formation study at University College London, Lally and colleagues found that the time it took a new behaviour to become automatic ranged from 18 to 254 days, with a median of about 66. Perge uses 66 days as the default formation window. You can extend it, and a habit stays tracked after day 66.

The same study found that missing a single day did not materially hurt formation. So one miss never resets anything in Perge. By default you can miss two days in a row; the third resets that period's goal percentage, not your 66-day count.

Made for people, not metrics

  • Starting a practice

    Write, read, meditate, learn a language. The first step is sized to two minutes, and the plan builds from there.

  • Training for something

    A race, a lift, a sport. Workouts from your health app check your training habits off for you.

  • Building a business or a project

    Focus blocks, calendar time-blocking and a weekly review keep the work on your calendar, not just on a list.
