How it works

The integration between PolyPlan and Habitify will sync your habit as a task in PolyPlan with the following information:

  • Habit name as task name

  • Habit icon as task icon

  • Habit color as task color

  • Each time-based reminder of the habit will be synced as a task into PolyPlan.

    For example, if your habit has 3 reminders at 9:00 AM, 12:00 PM, and 3:00 PM, it will be synced as 3 different tasks, one at 9:00 AM, one at 12:00 PM, and one at 3:00 PM.

  • Habit goal

  • Checklist as Sub-tasks

For each synced task, you can access a button to log your progress directly in PolyPlan. The check-in data will be synced back to Habitify.

Check in your tasks

On the website app, to add Progress Logs, you can use the check-in button next to each synced task.

For the task with duration less than 30 minutes, the button cannot be shown, so you can right click and choose Add Log instead.

To mark Skip or Fail, just click right, then choose Mark As and choose between "Mark as Skip” or "Mark as Fail".

On iOS app, when you tap on a task that is synced from Habitify, you can get a screen of details. In this screen, you can:

  • Adjust the time of the task (note: you can not edit its duration).

  • Check-in on the checklist of the habit which is synced back to Habitify.

  • Get buttons to mark the habit as Complete, Skip, or Fail; the status is synced back to Habitify as well.

  • A button to start a Timer in Habitify if your habit has a duration goal.

  • A button to conveniently direct to Habitify app.

Limitations

  • This integration does not sync the bad habits.

  • Archived habits will not be synced.

  • If you delete your habits, all of its synced tasks in PolyPlan will be removed.

  • You cannot move the synced task to another day in PolyPlan, or move it around within the timeline view of the current day.

  • You can drag to adjust the duration of the synced task. The change is stored locally in PolyPlan.

  • Default duration is 15 minutes. For the habit with goal in unit "minute” or "hour”, the duration will be equal to the goal.

  • If your habit does not have time-based reminders, it will be synced as an all-day task and, consequently, appear on the top of the timeline view.
