This app is a social habit tracker, that allows you to stay in contact with other people trying to change similar habits. While most habit trackers rely on accountability from self-motivation, and the app itself, Habitshare goes the extra mile by bringing in real people to help you with your changes. They also let message others and see how their progress is going on their habit updates. The app does allow you to create a private account, but we suggest using a different habit tracking app if you wish to go private, since the main benefit of Habitshare is the social networking aspect.
