Take control and log your behavior with Habit Bandz

Habit Bandz is designed with health in mind, drawing from the Comprehensive Behavioral (ComB) Treatment model and Urge Surfing (est. 1985).

It provides a way to take action in the moment of an urge — interrupting specific triggers which support habit change. Reports are generated automatically and can be shared to support a more personalized understanding of your habit.

Redirect the need for physical stimulation.


If you pick or pull because it feels good or satisfying, Habit Bandz offers a replacement that engages the body without harm.

  • Tap or hold the app to activate vibration-based “fidget” or “pulse” mode

  • Use as a tactile anchor when your hands crave stimulation

  • Review your sensory patterns in the PDF report

Interrupt intrusive thought loops that fuel the behavior.


Many habits begin with a thought like “I have to fix this” or “I can’t focus unless I do it.” Habit Bandz helps you pause and reframe.

  • Tap to feel vibrations and interrupt the urge-thought cycle

  • Create space to practice reframing: “This is just an urge — I don’t have to act on it”

  • Log shows when thought-driven urges occur

Ride out overwhelming emotions without reacting.

For many, behaviors are ways to soothe anxiety, boredom, or stress. Habit Bandz helps you stay grounded instead of acting out.

  • Tap and hold to practice mindfulness-based “Urge Surfing”

  • Use vibration as a cue to pause, breathe, and stay present

  • Track your time spent Urge Surfing and log your mood directly in the app

Break the automatic movements that lead to habits.


Sometimes the action happens before you even realize it — reaching for your skin or pulling your hair without thought.

  • Swap automatic movements by intentionally tapping Habit Bandz

  • Build new muscle memory by using Habit Bandz when urges start

  • Progress is tracked in your personal behavioral report

Respond differently in spaces that trigger your habits.


Many people pick or pull in specific environments — the bathroom, bedroom, car. Habit Bandz helps you stay mindful wherever you are.

  • Wearable and app are always with you, even in high-risk places

  • Use the tool as a subtle cue to pause in trigger zones

  • Use logging patterns to reflect on where urges may occur
