To-do and habit-tracking app Streaks is finally available for Mac after previously being available only for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch.

The app lets you track up to 12 tasks to complete every day. Users must build a streak of consecutive days they have accomplished these on. That makes it perfect for promoting good habits such as walking more, or breaking bad habits like drinking too much coffee or smoking.

The app is highly customizable, offering 78 different color themes, more than 600 task icons to choose from, iCloud syncing, and more. It also integrates with your Health data (with your permission, of course), helping to determine completion of your tasks.

You’ll get reminders throughout the day and also the ability to view your stats in easy to understand graphical ways, such as an assortment of charts.

All in all, it’s a great tool to finally have available for Mac users. While habit-tracking apps like this are probably at their most useful on mobile devices such as the iPhone, it’s great to see that it’s available on the Mac as well for those who want it.

You can download Streaks for Mac here, priced $4.99. The iOS version is available to download here, also priced at $4.99.
