A new version of Habit, version 2.2.10, has been released and is available on our downloads page. 

This version fixes a BUG that may have caused inaccurate results in some cases - see below for more. 

This version will run on macOS 10.13-13 (High Sierra, Mojave, Catalina, Big Sur, Monterey, Ventura) and Windows 10 (Windows 11 _should_ be supported, but I have not tested yet - anyone else?)

An new version of Habit2 - version 2.2.8 - is now available on our downloads page. 

This version is nearly identical to the previous version. The previous version (2.2.7) used an installer that will not work on MacOS Catalina (10.15) and beyond. This version can be installed on MacOS Catalina (10.15) and Big Sur (11). This version will also run on older MacOS, including Mojave (10.14) and High Sierra (10.13).

Users of Sierra (10.12) and older should use Habit2-2.2.7. 

Known problems:

Our paper describing Habit (2.2.4) has been published in Behavior Research Methods.  Please use this reference when citing Habit in your publication(s). 

A new version of Habit, 2.2.7, is now available (download here). This version has two bug fixes that may affect you - see below. 

As always, you may install this version over an existing 2.2.x version of Habit.

A new version of Habit, version 2.2.6, is now available for download! 

This version is a roll-up of several changes and bug fixes made over the last few months. Some of you have a preview of this version, labelled 2.2.5-rcN (N=1,2,3,4). I've thrown a couple more changes in and I decided to skip over 2.2.5 entirely and skip the numbering to 2.2.6. 

MacOS users

   The installer you download for this version will depend on what version of macOS you are using.

   I've just released an update to Habit, available for both Mac and Windows. This version is a drop-in replacement of existing installations of Habit. (*) 

   Key changes to Habit in this version:

   I've released a new version of Habit for Mac and Windows: version 2.2.3. This version is a drop-in replacement for Habit 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 (2.2.1 users may upgrade directly to 2.2.3). Your existing settings (from 2.2.x) are preserved and will continue to work with this newer version. 

  After many months of development, we're finally releasing Habit2 for Windows! Download Habit 2.2.2 for Mac or Windows now!

   Habit 2.2.2 has some important fixes to version 2.2.1, so all users of Habit 2.2.1 should update their version (see below for changes and bug fixes). The Windows version is based on the same code, with only minor variations due to the differences between the Mac and Windows platforms. More on that, too, below.

  Its been a long time, but the time has finally come to release a new version of Habit. We're calling this version 2.2.1, and there's a lot that's changed. We have a new User's Manual (draft version), and we've submitted a methods paper describing habit2. Here's some of the key changes you'll see (and some that you won't see):

 A new version of Habit is available, with some small fixes and some larger changes. Many of the changes are in response to comments and/or suggestions from users who have downloaded Habit and are using it - THANK YOU!
   You can download the latest version and install over your current version. All your settings will be preserved.
