Your friend
is watching.
Locked In turns a habit into a bet with someone who'll see if you flake. Photo check-ins, live reactions, real streaks. Break the chain and they'll know.
Free plan forever · No credit card · Solo mode works without a friend
Three steps to
a better you.
No complex routines. Just a simple system that keeps you honest on the schedule you choose.
Make a bet
Pick your goal, set your schedule and winning criteria, then invite a friend — or go solo. Running, reading, meditating, quitting bad habits — any commitment you want to keep.
Check in on schedule
Use photo proof, optional photos, or the honor system. Partners can see updates in real time and react when you show up.
Stay locked in
Watch your streaks grow, see missed days clearly, and earn milestone badges at 7, 14, 30, 60, 100, and 365 days.
Everything you need
to not give up.
Built for people who've tried habit apps before and quit. This one bites back.
Social & solo bets
Bet with a friend for maximum accountability, or go solo for habits that are just for you. Both modes keep you honest — in different ways.
Flexible check-ins
Choose the proof style that fits the habit: photo required, photo optional, or honor system. Add a note to explain missed days when life happens.
Flexible schedules
Not every habit needs to happen every day. Set a custom days-per-week target — 3, 5, or all 7 — pick a duration that fits, and schedule a start date for later if you want to ease in.
Pick your strictness
Three difficulty modes set how forgiving the bet is. Chill for busy weeks, Standard for real pressure with a little room, Hardcore for zero missed days — pure clean sweep.
Custom winning criteria
Define what "winning" means for your bet: a completion percentage, or a max number of missed days. Lock the rules at the start so you can't move the goalposts mid-bet.
Finish-line rewards
Set a specific reward for finishing — new running shoes, a massage, a weekend trip. A concrete payoff at the end gives the effort somewhere to land.
Streaks & milestones
Watch your streak grow on the home screen and earn milestone badges at 7, 14, 30, 60, 100, and 365 days. Heatmap, perfect weeks, best streak, and total check-ins on your profile.
Smart reminders
A daily nudge at the time you choose, plus a heads-up before the day ends if you haven't checked in. Pro lets you write your own custom reminder message.
Real-time activity feed, reactions & coaching mode
See partner check-ins the moment they post. React with emojis, celebrate wins, and invite an accountability checker to watch your bet — or jump into a bet as a coach who tracks and cheers without doing the habit themselves.

Real results from
real accountability.
Hear from people who finally found the thing that made habits stick.
"I've tried every habit app. The difference with Locked In is that my friend is watching. I can't fake it — and that's exactly what I needed."
"My best friend and I have a bet to read every night. We're both at 30-day streaks now. I would've quit at day 4 without her."
"Simple, clean, and it actually works. The photo check-in is genius — it takes 10 seconds and it holds you accountable in a way that feels fair."
Questions, before
you commit.
The stuff people ask before signing up. Short answers.
Do I need a friend to use Locked In?
No. Solo bets work without anyone else — you set the goal, the schedule, and the proof style, and the app keeps you honest with streaks, reminders, and milestone badges. Social bets are stronger accountability, but they're optional.
What if I miss a day?
Up to you, before you start. Chill mode forgives plenty of off-days for busy weeks. Standard gives real pressure with a little room. Hardcore is zero missed days — pure clean sweep. You can also set winning criteria as a completion percentage or a max number of misses, and the rules lock at the start of the bet so you can't move the goalposts later.
What does my friend actually see?
Only what you post: your check-ins (with a photo if you chose photo proof), your streak, and your missed days for that bet. Reactions are emoji-only. There are no DMs, no public feeds, and check-ins aren't visible to anyone outside the people you invited to that specific bet.
Are my check-in photos public?
No. Photos are only visible inside the bet, to the people you invited (your partner, observers, or coach). They're not posted anywhere public and aren't shown to other Locked In users. See the Privacy Policy for details.
What kinds of habits work on Locked In?
Anything with a daily or weekly cadence: running, gym, reading, meditating, language practice, journaling, no-phone-after-10pm, no-alcohol, screen-time limits — the app doesn't care what the habit is, only whether you showed up. Pick photo proof for habits a photo can verify, optional photos for flexibility, or honor system for things photos can't capture.
How does the photo check-in work?
Open the bet, tap check in, take a photo (about 10 seconds), and you're done. Your partner gets a notification and can react. You can also add a short note — useful for explaining a missed day or sharing context. Honor-system bets skip the photo entirely.
How much does it cost?
The Free plan is free forever and covers up to 2 active social bets and 2 active solo bets — enough for most people starting out. Locked-in Pro is $49.99/year (about $4.17/month) or $7.99/month, and unlocks up to 20 active bets, multiple accountability partners per bet, and custom reminder messages. See pricing for the full breakdown.
When is the app launching?
We're in the final stretch on iOS and Android. Join the waitlist and we'll send you a single email the moment it hits the App Store and Google Play — no spam, no drip campaign.
What happens when a bet ends?
You see the full breakdown — completion rate, longest streak, missed days, milestone badges earned — and whether you hit your winning criteria. If you set a finish-line reward (new shoes, a massage, a trip), that's the payoff. Then start a new bet, rematch with the same partner, or take a break.
