Cloud Backup
The Only Habit Tracker That Backs Up Automatically
Switch phones. Reinstall the app. Factory reset your device. Most habit trackers respond to all of these the same way — with a blank screen where your streaks used to be. VaultHabits backs up to iCloud and Google Drive silently after every single change, so your data is always safe no matter what happens to your phone.
Why habit tracker data loss is so common
Most habit trackers store your data only on your device. This is fine until it isn't — and the moment it isn't, you lose everything. Months of streaks, carefully built routines, your entire habit history — gone. Reviews across every major habit tracker reveal the same complaint repeated over and over: "I lost all my data when I got a new phone."
The irony is brutal. The apps designed to help you build consistency are themselves wildly inconsistent at keeping your data safe.
How VaultHabits handles this: Every time you check off a habit, add a new one, or change a setting, VaultHabits silently writes a backup to iCloud (iOS) or Google Drive (Android). No manual export. No "sync now" button. No account setup. It just happens.

| Streaks | ✗ iCloud only (iOS) | ✗ iOS only | ✗ Android users lose data |

What automatic backup actually means
When VaultHabits says automatic, it means every change triggers a backup — not once a day, not when you open the app, not when you remember to hit export. Every check-in, every new habit, every edit. Your backup is always current to within seconds of your last action.
When you get a new phone — iOS or Android — open VaultHabits, sign into the same iCloud or Google account, and your full habit history restores automatically. Your streaks are intact. Your categories are there. Everything is exactly as you left it.
Available on iOS and Android
Unlike Streaks (iOS only) or Loop (Android only), VaultHabits works on both platforms with the same backup system on each. Switch from iPhone to Android or back again — your data follows you. This also means households with mixed devices (one iPhone, one Android) can both use the same app.
Free to start
VaultHabits is free to download with a genuinely usable free tier. Pro is $4.99/month or $39.99/year and includes full cloud backup, cross-device sync, and advanced analytics.
