We're here to help.

Every completion is rewarded, right away. Which reward you get is the surprise. It might be an ocean moment (your wave swells, light gathers across the water, the sea stills to glass, a shower clears into sunlight, the scene turns golden, or, more rarely, the water lights up with bioluminescence along your wave), a quote chosen for that kind of habit, or something you wrote yourself: a reward, a quote, a family saying, or a mantra.

Quit habits get their own calm moments, and when you're building a money habit, the water can turn gold. Your own rewards don't come every time; they turn up now and then, when you least expect them.

Nothing bad! Unlike other habit apps that punish you by breaking your streak, Rewarding Habits is designed to be forgiving. Simply pick up where you left off. Your progress and potential rewards are still waiting for you. Life happens, we get it.

If you skipped or didn't add rewards initially, then on the main/home page find the habit or goal you want to add rewards to. Click the chart icon for that habit or goal, scroll to the very bottom of the page, and click "Manage Rewards." There you can add rewards or quotes by clicking the corresponding icon.

Yes! Rewarding Habits works offline. Your data is stored locally on your device. You don't need an internet connection to track habits, receive rewards, or view your progress.

If you have an Apple Watch or a Wear OS watch, your habits sync between your phone and watch automatically. To complete a habit on your watch, press and hold it until its ring fills. If you use VoiceOver or TalkBack, you can complete it with the Complete action instead.

Yes. Your habits are stored on your devices, never on our servers. We don't have access to your habits or rewards, and we don't sell data, show ads, or use ad tracking. Coaching runs entirely on your device. On Android, the app sends crash reports so we can fix bugs; they're built to leave out your habit names and anything you type, and you can turn them off in Settings. The Android app also uses Google's ML Kit for on-device AI, and ML Kit sends Google diagnostics. If you use a Wear OS watch, Google's watch connection also keeps a backup of your habits in Google's cloud. See our Privacy Policy for details.

On supported Android devices, Rewarding Habits uses Gemini Nano, Google's AI model that runs on your phone, for personalized reward suggestions, motivational quote suggestions, coaching tips, and the Surf the Urge chat.

On other Android devices, those features run on guidance built into the app. On iPhone and iPad, you get personalized reward and quote suggestions and on-device coaching, including the Surf the Urge chat, built from carefully written guidance rather than an AI model. Either way, everything runs on your device and never sends your habits or anything you write to a server.

Open Settings in the app. On Android, tap "Restore Purchases." On iPhone and iPad, tap "Unlock Premium," then "Restore Purchases." Use the same store account you used to buy it. If you're still having trouble, contact us at family@rewardinghabits.com.
