Comparison
GoStreak vs Streaks
Last updated 17 October 2026 · Also: vs Habitica, vs Finch, vs HabitKit
The short answer
Both are built on the streak, the "don't break the chain" idea. Streaks is a polished, minimal habit tracker for Apple devices, sold as a one-time purchase, with a cap on how many habits you can track and nothing beyond the streak itself. GoStreak keeps the streak at the center but wraps it in an evolving companion, a shared garden, XP and levels, and shared streaks you can hold with friends. Pick Streaks for a quiet, no-subscription tracker that lives across your Apple devices. Pick GoStreak if you want your streak to feel like something growing, with friends along for it.

Who Streaks is for
Streaks is for people fully in the Apple ecosystem who want a beautiful, dependable tracker with no ongoing cost and no extra layers: just habits, streaks and strong Health and Apple Watch support. Its limits (a fixed number of habits, Apple only, nothing social) are the point for the people who love it.
Who GoStreak is for
GoStreak is for people who find a bare streak count a little flat and want progress to feel visible and shared: a companion that changes as the streak grows, a garden that fills up, and the option to keep a streak going with a friend. The trade-offs versus Streaks: GoStreak has a subscription above the free tier, and no Apple Watch app yet.
