floof vs streaks: solo streaks or shared stakes?
it's a choice between a beautiful, private habit tracker and a small group of friends keeping you honest.
what happens when you miss a day on floof?
accountability works better when it's about something you care about, not just a number.
every answer teaches you something — that's the point.
the honest short version
streaks is a masterpiece of apple design. if you want to track 24 habits privately with no subscription and great health automation, it's the gold standard.
floof is for when you're tired of checking boxes by yourself. it replaces self-reporting with 3–8 friends and live photo proof so you can't just tap a button and pretend you went for a run.

so, which one?
streaks wins on design, automation, and price. it is much cheaper long-term and perfect if you truly want to be left alone. if you are already great at self-reporting, stick with streaks.
floof wins when you need a reason to show up. if you find yourself 'forgetting' to tap your checkboxes, you might need the group and the photo proof to make it real.
