Habit Repeat: More options for habit frequency
I do wish there was the ability for more customization in how often you do the habit. While the current options work for most of my habits, I have a few that need to be completed every other week, monthly, or sometimes quarterly. Currently, I have these habits set to once a week and I just skip off weeks, but that requires I go into the habit’s calendar to see when I did it last. This is a little annoying, as it takes away from the straightforward aspects I like about the app. It’d be so much easier if the habit just appeared on my list the day I had to do it, like my weekly habits.

Repeat interval: Custom frequency
Create custom repeat frequency like first si day of the month or last Saturday of the month

Hi @shankar !
Thank you for sharing what will work for you to repeat a habit! I will suggest the team to think about how we can implement this effectively in the app.
Meanwhile, you can set your habit like this:
goal as 1 time per month
repeat as every 7 days
start date as the first day you do your habit
This can keep you track your habit with the repeat as “… on first Sunday of the month”. For something like “… on last Saturday of the month”, you may get reminded of it every week to always keep it in your mind.

Repeat Interval: Ability to set the interval on weekly/monthly/quarterly/yearly basic
I’d like to suggest a feature to make habit tracking more flexible. Some of my habits occur only once every 3 months, 4 months, or once a year. Right now, I have to set these tasks as monthly, which either causes me to lose streaks unnecessarily or shows that I didn’t perform the task that month, which can be discouraging.
It would be really helpful if the app allowed scheduling with longer intervals (such as quarterly, biannual, or yearly). This way, streaks and progress would more accurately reflect habits that aren’t done every month.

Repeat Interval: Extended interval by months
Hello, I am new with this app, it looks great, just some feedback I feel could help the improvement from what I can see so far, I feel the habit timeframes can be extended to once every 3 months, once every 6 months, once every 9 months, and once every year and everything in between, to help organise longer term things, for example I'd like the app to remind myself to see my periodontist once every 6 months and my ophthamologist once every month and a half as a habit.

Hi! Welcome to the community of Habitify ☺️
Thank you for your sharing your concern with us. Currently it is true that we do not have the function to set your habit to repeat by every x months. But we can see this is a promising feature that is helpful to people, since we got some posts suggesting it too.
I will definitely highlight it to the team when they are about to plan to upgrade this feature!

Quarterly habits
there are many things that need to happen quarterly. How is this not a time interval yet? It would be so helpful!

Yes. Similar to how you can manually put in how many minutes after you get a notification when using habit stacking, I'd really like to be able to choose to have the task repeat say every 15 days, every 3 weeks, every 4 months, etc.

Repeat: First/Second/etc. Mon/Tue/etc. of the month as a monthly repeater
It would be cool if you could set your habit to be for example every first Sunday or every second Wednesday of a given month instead of having to chose a numerical date.
Thank you!

I agree- have the option like iCal where you can track an event on a “custom” frequency- for example, every 3 weeks.
