Frequently Asked Questions

Loops is a habit app with weekly AI coaching. You track what matters to you, and each week the AI writes you a personalized reflection — what's clicking, where things slipped, and one thing worth trying next. It also looks at six areas of your life, so you can see the whole picture instead of just your productivity.

Three things. You get a weekly AI reflection that actually coaches you — not just a completion percentage. You see six life dimensions instead of a flat checklist. And there are no streaks, because guilt has never been a good motivator.

Yes — you can use Loops for free with up to 6 habits, daily tracking, starter routines, and the dimension view. When you're ready to go deeper, Pro adds unlimited habits, weekly AI reflections, all coaching styles, and the full routine library for $8.99/month or $34.99/year.

When you sign up, you get 14 days of Pro for free — no credit card required. That's enough time for two weekly AI reflections, so you can feel the difference before deciding.

Routines are curated sets of habits built around a goal or lifestyle — like a Stoic morning practice, or a burnout recovery plan. Each one is sequenced with intention and backed by research. Clone one, then make it yours.

Yes. Routines are starting points. Add habits, remove ones that don't fit, change the timing. They're experiments — make them yours.

Yes. You can add custom habits with a name, description, frequency, time of day, and which life dimensions they connect to.

Every Sunday evening, the AI looks at your week and writes you a short, personalized reflection. It notices patterns you might miss — what's gaining momentum, what's slipping, and why. Think of it as a letter from a thoughtful coach who's been paying attention.

Claude by Anthropic. Loops uses AI specifically for your weekly reflections — it's a coach, not a chatbot.

Pro users can request a reflection whenever they want. Your scheduled Sunday reflection still arrives on its own.

You choose how much guidance you want:

• Minimal — Calm and quiet. Short reflections. Trusts you to lead.
• Supportive — A warm mentor. Notices patterns, asks questions, offers encouragement.
• Active — Direct and research-backed. Specific recommendations and accountability.

Minimal is available on the free tier. Supportive and Active are Pro features.

Then you had a bad week. The AI meets you where you are — it won't guilt you, won't lecture you, won't tell you you're falling behind. It'll help you understand what got in the way so you can come back stronger.

Six areas of a whole life:

• Energy — Body and mind. Am I resourced?
• Growth — Learning and evolving. Am I becoming?
• Impact — Meaningful work. Am I contributing?
• Joy — What lights you up. Am I living what I love?
• Connection — Relationships. Am I present with others?
• Freedom — Time and choices. Am I unconstrained?

Each habit you create maps to one or more dimensions, and Loops shows you where you're thriving and where something's gone quiet.

They came from years of personal life design and research into what actually matters for wellbeing. Most apps focus on productivity alone. We think that's one slice of a much bigger picture.

It just means that area hasn't gotten much attention recently. That might be fine — life has seasons, and sometimes you focus on work at the expense of play. Loops helps you see the imbalance so you can choose it consciously instead of drifting into it.

Email us at support@loops.today and tell us what happened. A screenshot helps, but isn't required. We read every message.

Because streaks make you protect the number instead of building the habit. One missed day breaks the streak, and the guilt often kills the whole thing. We'd rather you miss a day, learn something from it, and come back. That's how real change actually works.

Because some habits work for you and some don't, and both are useful information. If you try meditating for a month and it doesn't stick, that's not failure — that's data. Maybe the timing was wrong, or meditation isn't your thing, or you need a different approach. Framing habits as experiments gives you permission to adjust without shame.

Because you're a whole person. Tracking productivity habits while ignoring sleep, relationships, and joy gives you a distorted picture. The six dimensions help you see when your life is out of balance — which is usually when things start breaking down.

It means the goal isn't to track more habits. It's to become who you want to be. The tracking is just the mechanism. The becoming is the point.
