From Sign-Up to a Live HabitSync In Just 3 Easy Steps

Self-hosting HabitSync normally means a container, a generated password, persistent storage and a certificate before you can log your first habit. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account and pick HabitSync from the OneClick catalog. Enter a username — default admin — and leave the password blank to have xCloud generate one.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We bring up the vendor-maintained HabitSync 0.19.3 image, hash your sign-in password through a short-lived helper container, mount the persistent data volume, and publish it over HTTPS on your domain.

  3. Step 03

    Sign In And Create Your First Habit

    Open your HTTPS URL, choose Sign In with Username, and use the credentials from your installation page. Create your first habit with the + button and log today's entry.

Everything HabitSync Does, On Your Own Server

HabitSync runs in full here — the same tracking, sharing and challenge tooling as any hosted habit app, on infrastructure you control.

  • Yes/No And Numerical Habits

    Track habits with daily, weekly, monthly or custom goals, including negative habits you're trying to reduce.

  • Shared Habits And Challenges

    Share habits with friends and family and compare progress. Monthly challenges add voting, leaderboards and medals.

  • Reminders And Alerts

    Get reminders and threshold alerts through Apprise — Discord, email, Signal, Home Assistant and 80+ other services — or plain e-mail.

  • PWA, Android And REST API

    Install it as a Progressive Web App or use the Android app. A REST API with API keys covers integrations like Home Assistant.

  • Import From Loop Habit Tracker

    Bring your existing history over instead of starting a blank streak.

  • Your Streaks, Your Server

    Habits, history and accounts stay in the embedded database on a server you own, not a third-party habit-tracking account.

Hear what people are saying about us

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!

I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.
Kevin Pineda
I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

How Cloud Nine Web Elevated Client Experience While Streamlining Hosting Operations using xCloud
Ed Ellingham
xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.
Dumitru Butucel
xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.
Waqar Ahmed
Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍
Rahul Singh
So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.
Massimo Villa
Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.
Gerson El
I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.
Tony Lewis
I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.
Jared McDowell
I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

How Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently
Kevin Heinrichs
I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.
Dan Spinoza
Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.

Came from runcloud. Tried xcloud and never came back.

xCloud gave me what no other hosting platform could: the flexibility of a VPS with the convenience of managed WordPress. As a solo founder running an entire business on one server, that combination is an important unfair advantage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

What is HabitSync?

HabitSync is an open-source, self-hosted habit tracker with shared habits and monthly challenges. This template deploys version 0.19.3.

Is HabitSync free?

Yes — it's free and open source under the BSD 3-Clause licence. What you pay xCloud for is the dedicated server it runs on and the management around it, not the application itself.

Can I self-host HabitSync?

Yes — that is exactly what this template deploys. It brings up the official vendor image pinned by immutable digest, hashes your sign-in password at each start through a short-lived helper container, mounts the persistent data volume, and publishes it over HTTPS on your domain.

What does xCloud configure automatically?

The HabitSync URL, a generated sign-in account, the persistent data volume, the domain and the HTTPS route.

Can other people sign up on my HabitSync?

No. There is no public sign-up. The install creates one password account, and further users join through an OIDC provider you configure, with approval required by default.

How do I sign in the first time?

Open your HabitSync URL, choose Sign In with Username, and use the username and password from the installation credentials.

Can I connect Home Assistant or my own scripts?

Yes. Create an API key on the Profile page and send it in the X-Api-Key header to the REST API, rather than using your password.

Can the sign-in password be changed later?

Yes, but not inside the app. Edit it in the xCloud Environment editor and redeploy — the password is re-applied on every start. Keep JWT_SECRET and BASE_URL unchanged, because changing them signs everyone out.

What should I back up?

The habitsync_data volume, which holds the entire embedded H2 database — habits, records, accounts and scheduler data — ideally while the app is stopped, plus the JWT_SECRET value from the environment.

Does xCloud automatically back up or update HabitSync?

No. The template pins HabitSync 0.19.3; a catalog re-sync affects new installations only. To upgrade, update the image tag and digest together after reading upstream's release notes.

What are the server requirements?

The template manifest asks for 768 MB of RAM, 1 CPU core and 2 GB of disk as a floor. This page sells the 6 GB tier, comfortable headroom above that floor.

Is there a mobile app?

HabitSync installs as a PWA straight from the browser, and an Android app is available from the upstream project.

Is xCloud officially partnered with HabitSync?

No. No official partnership or endorsement between xCloud and the HabitSync project has been verified. This is a deployment and server-management option for the open-source project.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.
