How do I prove a habit?
Take a photo in the moment, or let your iPhone prove it for you.
Updated September 25, 2026
With a photo
- On the Home tab, tap the habit and choose Prove with a photo, or open the camera on Discover.
- Take the photo right then: your push-ups, your book, your made bed, your plate.
- Choose who gets it: Everyone sends it to all your friends, or pick one friend.
AI checks that the photo shows the habit before it counts. For push-ups and squats, the camera counts your reps: put the phone on the floor beside you, facing you. If it isn't counting, tap Use a photo.
Automatically
Step and sleep habits count on their own from Apple Health, and screen time habits from your iPhone. You don't need to post anything. If they don't count, see Why aren't my steps or sleep counting?
