HabitRPG App Features
HabitRPG app for Android got a simple yet interesting concept. That is, you enter your daily tasks and accomplishments and earn experience for doing so. The experience is not real world experience, but RPG type experience. I.e. you level up as you succeed, lose HP as you fail, and earn money to buy weapons and armor, compete with your friends. The app provides a pretty unique way to turn your life into a sort of video game.
Here is how HabitRPG Android app works: You have a sprite that you can outfit with armor and weapons. As you progress, you earn experience to level up, and you pocket gold to spend on equipment and various activities. The gold is spent on what is dubbed as ‘rewards’, and only the geekiest will find pleasure in creating rewards. The rewards can be one episode of Game of Thrones, an hour alone to play a video game, or your favorite TV show. The bottom-line is to complete your daily tasks/assignments to get your rewards.
The habits fall under three categories: habits, dailies and to-dos. Habits are the ones that you perform continuously and sometimes multiple quantities simultaneously. They can be programmed to add points, deduct them or offer a choice between them. That is taking the stairs is a habit. If you take stairs repeatedly in a day, you would press the plus button to add points. If you take the lift, you deduct points. Dailies, on the other hand, represent activities that you perform only once in a day. To-dos are activities that you will complete only once. For everything that you successfully complete or do, you’ll earn gold and experience. HabitRPG app is compatible with Android OS versions 3.0 and up.
