  1. On the Home tab, tap +.
  2. Tap New habit and pick the habit you want to build.
  3. Set the Goal, which days it repeats, how long it lasts, and the time of day.
  4. Tap Create habit.

Each habit already comes with its own way to prove it. Most you prove with a photo taken in the moment. Steps and sleep are read from Apple Health, and screen time from your iPhone.

You can keep up to 5 habits with proof at a time. To add another, delete one first. Your old proofs stay in your history.
