Reset75 vs 75 Day Program - Tough Habits

Quick answer

75 Day Program - Tough Habits by justin frazer, better known as Tough Habits, has been on the App Store since 2020 and runs a single program its description calls 75 Tough. It is free on iPhone with ads, one in-app purchase is listed at $1.99, and the current version, 4.0.1, was updated in September 2023.

75 Days Challenge - Reset75 is our 75-day challenge tracker. It ships 6 templates, 75 Tough, 75 Soft, 75 Hotter, Glow Within, 30-Day Kickstart, and Custom. It logs each task with one of 6 input types and builds a timelapse video from your progress photos. It is free to download, needs no account, and works offline. The free version runs one challenge at a time, with one rescue for a missed day and 3 of the 20 themes. Optional Pro adds several challenges at once, unlimited rescues, and the other 17 themes.

One naming note before the table. Both apps use the phrase “75 Tough”: in Reset75 it is one of six templates, in Tough Habits it is the name of the only program.

If you want one program, nothing else to configure, and a single $1.99 payment for everything the app sells, Tough Habits. If you want to pick the challenge, build your own, run one challenge free with no ads, or track on Android, Reset75.

Side-by-side

Where Tough Habits wins

One payment of $1.99, and that is the whole price list. There is exactly one in-app purchase on the listing, “No More Ads” at $1.99, and no subscription of any period. Reset75’s free version covers one challenge at a time with one rescue, but several challenges at once or more than one rescue takes Pro, at $4.99 per week or $39.99 per year after a 7-day free trial. For a reader who wants everything each app sells, that is $1.99 once against $39.99 a year.

What the $1.99 buys is two things, and reviewers disagree about the second. The description says it “will gain access to the ad-free version of the app, which conveniently allows you to modify your 75 Tough progression”. The ad removal is straightforward, and reviewers call the $1.99 worth it for that alone. The progression editing is where accounts split: some reviewers say they used it to fix a day they forgot to mark, others say they paid and still could not edit their progress. The listing does not settle it. If it works as described, $1.99 once covers editing your progression, where Reset75 recovers one missed day free and more only with Pro.

The developer answers people, and reviewers notice. Support is the dominant theme in the review sample: reviewers describe fast personal help, usually a Facebook message answered the same day. Some reviewers mention that the in-app support link pointed to a Facebook page that did not exist, so it is not universal. Nothing in Reset75’s listing promises anything comparable.

It is small, simple, and has a long track record. Reviewers say the interface is easy and lightweight, and some reviewers mention the plain satisfaction of turning the day green. It has been on the App Store since 2020, and its 4.77 comes from about 2,500 US ratings, a far larger sample than Reset75’s 78.

Where Reset75 wins

Six challenges instead of one. Reset75 ships 75 Tough, 75 Soft, 75 Hotter, Glow Within, 30-Day Kickstart, and Custom. The custom builder takes 20 tasks across 6 categories at any duration you set, including 21, 28, 30, or 90 days. Tough Habits names one program and lets you add up to 3 personal goals on top of it. Some of its reviewers ask for a 30-day version, which the listing does not offer.

A stated rule for the day you miss. Reset75 puts the choice in the setup: strict mode restarts your count if you miss a day, forgiving mode lets you skip and keep going, and since the August 2026 update you can rename an active challenge or change its duration and tasks. A rescue recovers a missed day: the free version includes one, and Pro has unlimited rescues. In the Tough Habits sample, reviewers describe a day flipping to failed after the daily cutoff with no obvious way to edit it back, and those reviews run across the whole date range.

Android, iPad, and 39 languages. Reset75 is on iPhone, iPad, and Google Play, and the store page lists 39 languages. Tough Habits is iPhone only, with no iPad build and no Google Play listing found, and English is the only language on its store page.

One challenge costs nothing, with no ads. Reset75’s free version runs one challenge at a time, with one rescue and 3 of the 20 themes, so a reader doing a single 75-day program pays $0. Tough Habits is free to run too, but with ads until you pay $1.99.

No account, no ads, and the data sits on your phone. Reset75 states that no account is required and that it works offline, its privacy label declares no data used to track you, and there are no ads. Tough Habits uses accounts tied to an email address or phone number, its privacy label lists User Content linked to your identity, and ads run on the free edition until you buy the unlock. Reviewers describe trouble getting past sign-up.

More to do with the photos. Both apps take a daily photo. Reset75 also compares any two photos side by side and renders a timelapse video with a day counter, completed tasks, a weight chart, and a watermark. Tough Habits reviewers report a Day 1 to current progression view, but no source describes a rendered video.
