What fits

Nexter - Habit Trackerstrong · 85

Nexter is explicitly designed against streak-guilt: missed days do not reset progress and weekly goals accumulate across weeks rather than rolling missed tasks forward. It is free, works without an account, and reports progress across weeks and months so you can view historical habit performance.

Best for: Users who want a guilt-free tracker that preserves progress and shows multi-week/month history.

Habit Tracker Propartial · 50

Local, no-signup web app with historical charts but limited sync features.

Won’t cover: It stores data client-side in the browser, so cross-device historical views require manual export or staying on one device.
