Stop setting goals. Start becoming a runner.

If/Then Habits turns your goal into one small action tied to a moment you already live.

THEN I put on my running shoes
day 27

A goal names the destination.
It never says when to move.

Goals like "run more" have no trigger, so you renegotiate them every morning, but an if/then plan makes the decision once, in advance.

Run more.

  • no cue, fires only if you remember
  • renegotiated every single morning
  • depends on how you feel in the moment
IF I pour my morning coffee
THEN I put on my running shoes
  • cue: a moment you already live
  • decision made once, in advance
  • nothing left to negotiate at 6 a.m.

The format is the point: when the cue arrives, there's no decision left to make because you made it calmly, days ago.

One sentence. Any habit.

WHEN I close my laptop for the day
THEN I write tomorrow's one task
IF I sit down on the train
THEN I open the reading app, not the feed
AFTER I brush my teeth at night
THEN I lay out tomorrow's running clothes
WHEN the kettle is boiling
THEN I do ten slow breaths, phone face down

If/Then Habits holds the loop.

  1. 1.

    Write the sentence

    The app holds you to one cue and one action small enough that yes is always realistic.

  2. 2.

    Get the cue

    At the moment you chose, a notification says your own sentence back to you, already decided.

  3. 3.

    Close the loop

    Check it off in one tap, and let the evening review show you what's actually working.

Decide once. Tonight, write one sentence.

If/Then Habits is in open beta on iOS, and every piece of feedback shapes what gets built next.
