Common Questions

Everything you need to know about choosing the right app.

How is Bento different from other habit trackers?

Bento combines habit tracking with actual focus sessions. Rather than just checking a box, you complete real work that builds your streak. This creates a more meaningful habit loop than passive tracking alone, connecting the tracking behavior directly to productive output.

How long does it take to build a habit?

Research suggests habits take anywhere from 18 to 254 days to form, with 66 days being average. The variation depends on habit complexity and individual factors. Consistency matters more than the specific number - focus on not breaking your streak rather than counting days.

What should I do if I break my streak?

Do not let one missed day become two. Research shows missing once does not significantly impact habit formation, but missing twice starts a new pattern. Get back on track immediately rather than waiting for a fresh start like Monday or next month.

Should I track habits in multiple apps?

Consolidation is usually better. Having habits spread across apps creates friction and reduces accountability. Bento's focus on focus-related habits keeps tracking simple and meaningful. One app used consistently beats multiple apps used sporadically.

What makes focus a good starting habit?

Focus is foundational because it supports other goals. Better focus improves work, study, creativity, and learning. The habit of regular focus sessions creates time and mental clarity for other pursuits. Master focus first, then add other habits.

How do I stay motivated when the habit feels routine?

Routine is actually the goal - when the habit no longer requires motivation, it is truly established. Let the streak provide motivation during the middle period. Trust that the automatic phase will come. Review your progress to appreciate how far you have come.
