Reminders and widgets in HabitRix

How do I set a habit reminder?

To set a reminder, open the habit’s reminder setting, choose a time, and choose the days. HabitRix then sends a notification at that time on those days.

On Android

1. Create a new habit, or open a habit and tap the edit icon.
2. Tap Reminder.
3. Tap Add Reminder.
4. Choose the time and the days.
5. Tap Save.

The notification says “Time for your habit” with the habit name. Each habit gets 1 reminder for free. With HabitRix Pro, add more reminders to one habit.

On iPhone

1. Create a new habit, or edit a habit.
2. Tap Reminders.
3. Tap Add a time.
4. Choose the time and the days. Every day, Weekdays and Weekends are quick choices.
5. Tap Done.

You can add more than one time, and each time can repeat on different days. To see all reminders in one place, open Settings > Manage Reminders. There you can pause or edit a reminder. You can also make a standalone reminder, for example “Stretch”. When you archive a habit, its reminders pause.

How do I set a reminder for a room?

On iPhone, each group can have a private reminder on your phone. Only you see your schedule.

1. Open the group.
2. Tap the ••• button at the top right.
3. Tap Set Reminder.
4. Choose the time and the days, then save.

On both Android and iPhone, a room sends a notification when a member joins or checks in.

How do I make sure reminders arrive?

To make sure reminders arrive, allow notifications for HabitRix.

• On Android: Allow notifications and alerts for HabitRix in the phone settings.
• On iPhone: Allow notifications for HabitRix in the Settings app. If the reminder screen shows Notifications are off, tap Enable notifications or Open Settings.
• On both: Make sure the reminder is on, and that today is one of its days.

How do I add a widget?
