Archive, delete or reorder habits
Archive a habit to pause it and keep its history, delete it for good, or drag your habits into a new order.

Archive (keeps the history)
Archiving hides a habit from Today but keeps every check-in, so you can bring it back later.
- On Today, long-press the habit and tap Archive, or tap Archive habit at the bottom of the habit form.
- A toast confirms with Undo.
- Find archived habits in Settings › Habits › Archived habits, where you can Restore or Delete them.
- Archived habits don’t count toward the 4 free habits. On the free plan, restoring one needs a free slot: archive another habit first, or go Premium.
Delete (removes the history)
Deleting removes the habit and its whole history. It can’t be undone.
- Swipe a card left in Cards view and tap Delete, or long-press the habit and tap Delete.
- BeHabit asks you to confirm and reminds you that archiving keeps the history.
If you might want the data later, export it first.
Reorder
On Today, open the view menu and tap Edit habits. Drag the handle next to a habit to move it. The order is used on Today and on your widgets.
