Choose what one entry means before setting the goal
For tennis twice a week, one entry might mean one completed session. For reading, it might mean one reading session rather than one page. Write that rule in the activity name or keep it consistent in your notes. If you change the meaning halfway through the month, the totals become harder to compare.
Habitvia is an activity counter with optional goals, a calendar and a heatmap. Freoza develops the app. This guide explains its counting model so you can decide whether it fits your routine; it does not promise that logging alone will change a habit.
Set up a weekly target of two sessions
- Create an activity with a clear name, such as “Tennis session”. Choose a color and icon that you can recognize quickly.
- Choose the minimum goal type: at least a chosen count. Set the repeating period to weekly and the target count to 2.
- Add one entry after each completed session. Include a note or photo only when it adds useful context.
- Check the entry’s date and time. If you are recording an earlier session, use its actual time so it falls in the intended week.
- Review the weekly count and calendar together. Two entries meet a two-session goal; the calendar shows which days they happened.
Two sessions is different from two separate days
Habitvia counts recorded events in the period. If you enter two sessions on Tuesday, both contribute to the weekly total. That is appropriate if your target is two sessions, but not enough to establish that you practiced on two separate days.
If your personal rule is two different days, record at most one qualifying entry per day and check the calendar. Do not interpret the weekly number as an automatic distinct-day calculation. The heatmap shows the distribution of activity; it is not a substitute for deciding what each entry means.
A calendar week is different from the last seven days
The app calculates the week using the device’s current calendar. The boundary can depend on your calendar settings; it is not simply a rolling window beginning at the moment you open the app. An entry late in one week and an entry early in the next may belong to different totals.
When a count looks unexpected, first inspect the event timestamps, the period you are viewing and the device calendar. Correct an accidental duplicate or wrong timestamp instead of adding another entry to make the displayed number look right. Keep the same counting rule when comparing weeks.
Use a minimum, a maximum or no target
A minimum goal suits something you want to do at least a certain number of times. A maximum goal suits a personal limit, such as buying takeaway coffee no more than a chosen count per month. A no-target activity simply records occurrences. These describe your chosen counting rule, not health advice.
A basic note or calendar can be enough for an occasional reminder. Habitvia is useful when you want event history, repeatable count goals and visual patterns together. It does not advertise automatic workout detection or cloud synchronization. Record the activities you want counted yourself.
Review one week before adding more activities
- Try one activity first, and compare the goal total against the actual entries.
- Use the calendar and heatmap to understand timing, not to treat every empty day as a missed daily obligation.
- The current listing allows three custom activities for free; Pro and feature access depend on the current purchase terms.
- Records are stored on the device. Do not assume signing into a new phone will automatically restore a Habitvia collection.
