About this app

The Happier app gives you the tools, tips, and insights to build a happier life—based on the research of happiness expert Gretchen Rubin.

Apps that tell you what to do will never work for everyone. Happier is designed to help you figure out what actually makes you happier, then gives you the tools and guidance to make it happen.

WHAT YOU GET:

Daily content to keep you moving forward: Learn from fresh tips, reflection prompts, quick challenges, and insights every day.

Habit-building tools that match how you work: Try different tracking methods to find what clicks: streaks, photo logs, journal entries, number tracking, and more. Track any habit you choose—exercise, reading, sleep, relationships, creativity, organization, whatever matters to you.

Personalized recommendations based on your personality: Take the Four Tendencies quiz to discover whether you’re an Obliger, Questioner, Upholder, or Rebel–then try the tools and approaches that fit your tendency, so you’re working with your nature instead of against it.

Fun challenges when you need a boost: There’s always room for a bit of fun. Spin the Challenge Wheel for instant prompts you can complete in minutes—clear a drawer, text a friend, take ten deep breaths, try something new. Or, dive into a 7-day Jump-Start, designed to help you break out of old patterns.

Whether you're focused on self improvement, personal growth, or simply building better daily habits, Happier gives you a flexible approach that adapts to your life.

This is a great app. The habit trackers are great. Works well since the update and easy to set up and use. I like to spin the wheel and the quotes. I love the format, it's beautiful. The only reason it is three stars is because of the cost. I'm a teacher in one of the lowest paying states in the US and I can't afford $8 a month for an app when there are lower cost, less beautiful but functionl options in the Play store. I hope others try this app!

The Android version doesn't really seem to work. I can't add photos from gallery and the email support button doesn't do anything. The entries also don't seem to have dates attached which is very odd to me. I was excited to try this but execution is poor. I'm not getting a monthly fee notification like some users are commenting, so maybe they removed the fee?

Downloaded the app after reading Gretchen's book and the app has honestly kind of soured my whole experience. $8 a month...for what exactly? A lackluster habit tracker that you can get from free apps. I appreciate that they give a free trial so that it at least doesn't waste your money right away if it's not for you. I was just so excited that there was an app but it is very bare bones and I didn't find anything in the app that was worth spending any money on. I was not recommend.
