Moving from Fabulous to HabitForge
Fabulous coaches you through routines with audio sessions and a coach you can book. HabitForge has no coach. You write your own habits, and AI can draft the wording when you ask it to.
Should you move at all?
If being guided through your morning is the reason it works for you, stay. HabitForge will not walk you through anything.
Also check what HabitForge does not do. HabitForge has no iOS app, no home screen widgets and no health sync, and nothing guides you through replacing one habit with another.
The move, step by step
HabitForge has no importer, so this is done by hand.
- Get your list out. Pick the two or three parts of your Fabulous routine you still do unprompted. Those are your first habits. The pages we read do not mention an export.
- Sign in. Open HabitForge and sign in with Google. There is no password to set.
- Add your habits. Add each part as its own habit, with what comes before it as the cue: "after my morning coffee". Draft with AI fills the loop from the name if the words will not come. Create a habit has every field.
- Write the loop on the ones that matter. Add the cue, routine and reward to two or three habits first. The rest can stay as a name until you need more.
- Set up what surrounds them. The community is people tracking alongside you. Nobody on it is a coach.
- Keep both for a week. Your old numbers stay in Fabulous. In HabitForge every rope starts as a thread on your first check-in, and that first week is when it looks thinnest.
