HipHabit: Screen Time Control 10.0.11

HipHabit offers an innovative approach to managing screen time by tying it to the achievement of daily goals. Users can limit their time on distracting applications until they fulfill essential activities such as getting out of bed, exercising, or winding down for sleep. The app encourages the development of healthy habits through a systematic three-step process:

• Set Goals: Users are encouraged to establish Sleep and Move goals, with additional Exercise goals available for Apple Watch users.
• List Bad Habits: The app allows users to identify unproductive activities and set limits to help maintain focus on their established goals.
• Earn Rewards: Upon achieving all daily goals, users receive rewards that permit temporary skips of specific objectives.

By implementing app limits, HipHabit prompts users to complete a variety of tasks, including:

• Getting out of bed
• Moving
• Exercising
• Going to sleep
• Taking breaks
• Meditating
• Journaling
• Studying
• Tracking medication
• Monitoring diet

The application incorporates various subtle behaviors designed to motivate users to adhere to their goals:

• Encouraging Morning Routines: To combat the tendency to scroll in bed, HipHabit reminds users to get out of bed before engaging with their devices.
• Combating Laziness: After prolonged periods of inactivity, the app prompts users to take breaks, fostering productivity.
• Fostering Accountability: Users can add friends for mutual support, receiving notifications when achievements are shared or when activities are paused.
• A Gentle Approach: The app includes features that allow for pauses, with each required pause increasing in duration, promoting sustained commitment.
• Preventing Goal Manipulation: Modifications to exercise-related goals cannot be made mid-day, and the app can restrict deletion if desired by the user.
• Monitoring App Usage: HipHabit tracks engagement with specific applications to encourage diverse habits such as meditation and dietary tracking.

Originally developed for personal use by the creators, HipHabit aims to assist users in enhancing their overall well-being. The app serves those looking to:

• Improve Sleep Hygiene: By promoting adherence to bedtime routines and minimizing phone usage in the morning.
• Encourage Regular Exercise: By establishing screen time limits that correlate with daily progress towards fitness objectives.
• Acknowledge Achievements with Breaks: By allowing rewarding time off from routine responsibilities through designated "cheat days" or leisurely starts.
