Comparison

Habit trackers count streaks. Toni helps when the streak breaks.

A habit tracker can show whether you did the thing. Toni is for the moment after you did not: the reply, the reset, and the next small step.

Short answer: habit trackers are best for simple streak visibility. Toni is best for health habits that need memory, conversation, check-ins, and recovery after real life interrupts.
