Streaks is a polished, one-time-purchase habit tracker built for the Apple ecosystem — simple, fast, and famously well-designed. If your goal is to keep a handful of streaks alive from your wrist, it's excellent. lifori is built for a different person: the one who has kept downloading habit apps and starting over, and needs the day itself organised — not just counted.

Streak pressure is part of why you quit habit apps; you want the app to pick your next action instead of showing a wall of counters; or you use Android.
