75 Hard Tracker App: The 6 Best Options Compared (2026)

The best 75 Hard tracker app depends on how you are running the challenge. Doing it solo, the official 75 HARD app ($4.99) or the free 75 Days Hard Challenge Tracker for Android covers the daily checklist. Doing it with friends, Habit Huddle (our app, flagged clearly below) turns the whole 75 days into a group effort where every checkin gets cheered.

This guide compares six real options: what each one tracks, what it costs, and where it falls short. No tracker does the workouts for you, but the right one removes the two ways people lose the challenge on a technicality: forgetting a task and forgetting to log it.

What a 75 Hard tracker actually has to track

A 75 Hard tracker app has one job: prove that all five daily tasks happened before midnight. The rules, from creator Andy Frisella's program, are fixed: follow a diet with no cheat meals and no alcohol, complete two 45 minute workouts with one outdoors, drink a gallon of water, read 10 pages of nonfiction, and take a progress photo. Miss any single item and you restart at day 1.

That restart rule is what makes the tracker matter. On this program a forgotten progress photo on day 36 costs you 36 days. So judge every app below on three things: a clear daily checklist, reminders you can set per task, and photo storage that makes the day undeniable. Everything else is decoration.

If it is the restart rule itself that keeps beating you, the fix is a different challenge, not a different tracker. We compared the gentler variants in our guide to 75 Hard alternatives.

The 6 best 75 Hard tracker apps at a glance

1. The official 75 HARD app: the program as written

The official app comes from Andy Frisella himself, costs $4.99 one time, and is available on iOS and Android. You get the exact five-task daily checklist, one-tap completion, custom reminders per task, progress photo storage inside the app, and quick sharing to Instagram.

The pitch on the official site is honest about what it exists to prevent: people who did every task, forgot to log the photo, and had to start over. If you want zero ambiguity about the rules, the app built by the program's creator is the safe pick.

Trade-offs: it is a solo experience. Reviewers on the official store ask for water totals that add up in ounces and for a way to see how a friend is doing, and neither exists. It tracks your 75 days; it does not make anyone care about them.

2. Habit Huddle: 75 Hard with friends

Full disclosure: this is our app, so judge the reasoning, not the ranking. Habit Huddle is not a dedicated 75 Hard app. It is a habit tracker built around huddles, small groups of friends who check in daily and cheer each other on, which happens to be the thing every solo 75 Hard tracker is missing.

The setup that works: create a huddle for your challenge crew, and each member tracks one habit called something like "75 Hard day done." Set the Floor to the full five-task list, since on this program a partial day does not count, and check in each night with your progress photo attached. Your friends see the checkin, send applause, and the group builds a Checkin Chain, one link for every member who checks in that day.

The group layer is the real feature. Day 40 of 75 Hard is a lonely place, and a huddle makes showing up visible to people who are grinding through the same thing. It works on web, iOS, Android, and Discord, so a challenge group that lives in a group chat or server can keep the whole thing there. The free plan covers one active habit, which is exactly what this setup needs.

Trade-offs: there is no 75 Hard template, so you bring the rules yourself. It will not count your water in ounces or split the two workouts into separate line items unless you upgrade to track them as separate habits. Purists who want the checklist enforced item by item should pick the official app and add a huddle only if they want witnesses.

3. 75 Days Hard Challenge Tracker: the free Android pick

This free Android app by Abenidev holds a 4.6 star rating from over 500 reviews with 50,000+ downloads. It covers the checklist, per-task reminders, progress charts, and a photo journal that stores your daily pictures for side-by-side comparison. The same developer also ships separate trackers for 75 Soft and 75 Medium.

Trade-offs: it is ad-supported with in-app purchases, and it is Android only. Reviewers love the simplicity but report some friction: logging workouts in five minute increments instead of one tap, and at least one report of the day counter drifting. For a challenge where the count is everything, screenshot your day number now and then.

4. 75 Days Challenge Tough & Soft: the iPhone alternative

For iPhone users who do not want to pay for the official app, 75 Days Challenge Tough & Soft covers both the full-strength rules and the softer variant in one app. You pick the ruleset, get the daily checklist and reminders, and log photos as you go.

Trade-offs: it is a small independent app, so expect fewer polish passes than the big names, and the Hard and Soft rulesets living side by side can tempt a mid-challenge downgrade. If your rules are negotiable, that is a sign 75 Soft or another alternative was the right challenge in the first place.

5. A printable PDF tracker: free and unmissable

Do not dismiss paper. A printed 75 day grid on the fridge is free, needs no battery, and confronts you every time you reach for food, which is thematically appropriate. Plenty of finishers swear by a wall chart precisely because it cannot be swiped away.

The two real weaknesses: paper cannot remind you about the progress photo at 11pm, and it cannot store the photos. If you go analog, set five phone alarms for the five tasks and keep your photos in one album. The hybrid approach, paper on the wall plus an app for reminders and photos, is stronger than either alone.

6. A general habit tracker you already use

If you already open a habit tracker every day, adding five entries for 75 Hard beats installing a new app you might ignore. Any tracker that handles multiple daily habits and reminders can carry the challenge, and our roundup of challenge tracker apps covers the strongest options.

The caveat is friction. Five separate checkboxes per day, every day, for 75 days is a lot of tapping, and general trackers have no concept of the restart rule. You are the enforcement. That works for people with an existing tracking habit and quietly fails for everyone else.

Doing 75 Hard with friends changes the math

Doing 75 Hard with friends adds the one thing no solo tracker provides: people who see you show up. Ask anyone who finished how they got through the middle weeks and you will usually hear about a witness of some kind: a spouse doing it too, a group chat, a coach, a feed.

You can build that witness layer with any of the trackers above plus a group chat. Or you can use a tracker where the group is the point: a huddle where every checkin lands in front of your friends and collects applause, personal streaks run in days, and the group's Checkin Chain grows a link for every member who shows up. If your crew is game, start the huddle before day 1, because tracking habits with friends works best when everyone starts together.

Group challenges do not have to be 75 Hard, either. If your friends want something the whole group can actually finish, our group fitness challenge ideas list has formats with a far friendlier completion rate.

The bottom line

Pick by context, not features. Solo and strict: the official 75 HARD app, $4.99, no ambiguity. Free and solo: Abenidev's tracker on Android, Tough & Soft on iPhone, or paper on the wall. With friends: Habit Huddle, because 75 days is long enough that someone cheering on day 40 is worth more than any chart.

Whichever you choose, install it before day 1 and set the progress photo reminder first. That is the task that ends the most runs, and it is the one no amount of discipline at the gym can save.
