Loop Habit Tracker is Android only. Here is the iPhone alternative.

The story is almost always the same. You used Loop Habit Tracker for a year or three, the checkmarks and the habit strength chart became part of your morning, and then you switched to iPhone. You open the App Store expecting to pick up where you left off and find nothing, because Loop is Android only and has no official iOS version. Apps with similar names come from different developers entirely, so they are not the app you knew, and most of them ask for an account before you have logged a single habit.

What people miss is not just the interface. Loop stands for a specific set of values: free to use, no ads, no account, and data that lives on your own phone. Much of the App Store is built the opposite way, with a subscription paywall in front of the basics and a server holding your history. So the search is really for an app that treats you the way Loop did. That is the exact standard Unlooped was built to meet on iPhone, and it is why this page exists at all.

Credit where it is due: Loop Habit Tracker is open source, and that matters. Anyone can read the code, verify there is no tracking, and know the app will never quietly add ads. Unlooped is not open source, and we will not pretend otherwise. What we can offer is the same deal in practice: every habit you log stays on your iPhone, there is no account to create, and there are no servers on our side that could hold your data even if we wanted them to. We cannot see what you track, because nothing you track ever reaches us.

The pricing follows the same philosophy. Quit mode in Unlooped is free forever, with no ads and no trial clock. If you never spend a dollar, you still get counters, milestones, money saved, reminders, and setback logging. Premium exists for people who want more, but it adds to the app rather than unlocking it: the free quit mode is complete on its own. And if you use more than one Apple device, optional private iCloud sync keeps them in step without introducing an account, which is as close to Loop's local-first spirit as sync can get.

Loop is a builder's app: check the habit, watch the strength score climb. Unlooped does that too, and then covers the other half of the problem with a dedicated quit mode. Point it at nicotine, energy drinks, late-night scrolling, or impulse spending and you get a day counter, milestones, and a running total of money saved. Most importantly, a slip does not wipe the slate. Progress is milestone-based, so when you log a setback your history and savings stay intact, and the bad night is recorded as one bad night instead of a reset to zero.

Then there is the moment a craving actually hits, which charts alone cannot help with. Craving SOS gives you something to do with your hands and your head while the urge passes, and the on-device AI coach can talk you through what triggered it. Both run on your iPhone, not on a server. Beyond that, Unlooped lives across the whole Apple setup Loop users are moving into: a full Apple Watch app for logging from your wrist, and home screen widgets that keep your streaks and counters one glance away without opening the app.

If you are staying on Android, stay with Loop. It is honestly one of the best pieces of software in the category on any platform: free, open source, respectful of your attention, with charts most paid apps still have not matched. Nothing on this page argues otherwise, and switching apps for its own sake would be a downgrade. This comparison exists for one situation only: the phone in your pocket is now an iPhone, or is about to be, and the app you trusted cannot come with you. In that case the question is not which app is better, it is which app on iOS respects you the same way.

Making the move is quicker than it sounds. There is no automatic importer, because Unlooped has no servers to receive an upload, so you recreate your habits by hand. For most people that is ten minutes: add each habit, set your reminders, and, if something is a quit rather than a build, enter what it costs you so money saved starts counting. Loop lets you export your history for your own records before you retire the old phone. Your streaks start fresh on iOS, but the habits themselves, and the values behind the app tracking them, carry straight over.
