HabitKit 1.18.0 turned the habit tracker into a habit and number tracker. Every habit now has a type: Yes / No for done or not done, Count for things you tally, and Measure for amounts with decimals and a unit of your own, like 7.5 km, 2 litres or 1.5 hours.
Release notes · 1.18.0

- New iOS Shortcuts: Log Amount, Log Habit Note, Get Habit Progress, and Open Habit
- Translated Shortcuts labels and clearer behavior for quit habits
- Fixed: Shortcuts no longer reduce over-goal progress; more reliable imports, backups, and purchases
Yes / No, Count And Measure
Pick the type when you create a habit. Yes / No is the classic tile you tap once. Count adds up glasses of water, reps or pages, one tap at a time or by typing a number. Measure takes any amount in the unit you name, decimals included, and fills the day's tile in shades as you get closer to the goal. Daily goals, counts and measured amounts explains goals, units and how partial days are drawn.
Change A Habit's Type Without Losing History
Already tracking something as a simple check-off? Switch it to Count or Measure and your past days and streak stay exactly as they were. For a count goal above one, tapping the habit at its goal now opens the value editor instead of clearing the day, so a misplaced tap no longer wipes your progress. Quit habits got the same care and clearer behaviour; see track a habit you want to quit.
New iOS Shortcuts
Four new actions arrived on iPhone: Log Amount, Log Habit Note, Get Habit Progress and Open Habit. Use them with Siri or in an automation, for example logging the distance when a run ends. Their labels are translated into every language HabitKit speaks. Siri and Shortcuts lists every action.
