What we could not establish
- Web app only; no native app described.
- Non-daily schedules and reminders are not documented: the README (read 2026-10-21) describes daily tracking only and lists email reminders as a future enhancement; it states the cap as 6 (features, usage) and as 10 (security section), both above five.
- Documented by provider; not independently tested in the app. Regional availability and history retention not fully reviewed.

Chainofdots Readme · github.com/tomspetter/HabitTracker

Public repository README (the repository the site names), read 2026-10-21. Describes daily tracking only: "Track up to 6 daily habits", checkbox to mark today, 365-day grid, streaks, completion rates, CSV/JSON export and import, email sign-up. Reminders appear only as a planned feature under "Future Enhancements (Post v1.1)" ("Email Reminders: Daily notifications and streak alerts"), not as a current feature. No weekly or specific-day schedules. The README states the habit cap inconsistently: 6 in the features, about and usage text ("max 6 habits"), 10 in the security section ("Habit limits (10 max habits..)"); both are above five.
