Questions
Is Alto Daily free?
Yes. Tracking is free everywhere you see or tick a habit: Today, Habits, Week, goals, counters, rest days, every widget, Siri and Shortcuts, and the Mac menu bar. alto.pro adds a Month tab and a map of where you keep a habit, for one payment. It is not a subscription.
Where are my habits kept?
In Apple Reminders, in the lists you choose. A habit is a repeating reminder, and a tick is that reminder completed. Alto Daily has no server and no copy of its own.
Do I need an account?
No. There is nothing to sign up for. Your habits sync by iCloud the way your reminders already do.
Does it sync between my iPhone, iPad and Mac?
Yes, through Apple Reminders. Alto Daily on each device reads the same lists, so a tick on one shows on the others once iCloud has synced it.
What happens if I delete the app?
Nothing happens to your habits. Every day you recorded is still in Reminders, as completed reminders, and the habits are still repeating reminders in your list.
Will my Reminders list fill up?
Each tick is a completed reminder, which is how Reminders keeps the history Alto Daily reads. Reminders hides completed ones unless you choose to show them, so the list itself shows only what is still to do.
Can I use a list I already have?
Yes. Any Reminders list works, and every repeating reminder in it becomes a habit. Star the lists that are habits and the rest fold away.
Can I add a habit from Reminders?
Yes. Add a repeating reminder to the list in Apple Reminders and it shows up in Alto Daily as a habit.
Does alto.pro restore on a new phone?
Yes, on any Mac or iPhone you sign in to with the same Apple Account. Restore purchase is in Settings.
Which languages does it speak?
Fourteen: English, Czech, German, Spanish, French, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Slovak, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Simplified and Traditional Chinese. The app, its widgets and Siri, with dates in each language’s own order.
