AI-Powered Habit Planning & Daily Routine App for iOS

Esketchers developed an app that helps users build better routines by turning personal goals into structured daily actions. Combining AI-powered planning with flexible habit tracking, the platform allows users to generate personalized schedules or create custom goals, activities, reminders, and recurrence rules. With progress analytics, notifications, and intuitive tracking tools, the app helps users stay consistent across fitness, learning, mindfulness, productivity, and self-improvement goals.

Problem

Many people struggle to achieve their goals not because they lack motivation, but because turning intentions into sustainable daily routines is difficult. Goals like getting fit, reading more, or waking up earlier often fail when users cannot break them into manageable actions, build consistent schedules, or stay accountable. The challenge was to support the entire habit-building journey—from planning and routine creation to long term consistency and progress tracking.


Solution

Esketchers developed an iOS habit-building app that helps users turn goals into structured daily routines. The platform offers both AI-powered and manual goal setup, enabling users to create personalized schedules, activities, reminders, and recurring habits. With a centralized dashboard, users can track progress, complete tasks, log updates, and gain insights that support long-term consistency and growth.

Users manually create goals, reminders, and schedules.
