How to use Hachlata

Four simple steps to take something on and watch it grow. Here's everything you need to get going.

1

Adopt a hachlata

Pick a category, name what you're taking on in your own words, and choose a symbol to represent it. That symbol will grow as your streak builds.

2

Check in each day

One tap marks today done. Your streak climbs, you earn XP, and your symbol takes another step forward. No pressure — just a warm daily nudge.

3

Watch it grow

Your Journey page adds it all up — your day streak, your total XP, and every check-in over the weeks. Growth is quiet; look at the page, and it adds up.

4

Take it on together

On any hachlata, tap Join link to invite friends to take it on with you. They get their own copy and their own streak, together in one chabura — and you can follow along and cheer each other on.

5

Share your journey

Share a streak card — complete with a QR code — to show how far you've come and invite others to join you. Your private details always stay private.

Good to know

Frequently asked

Is Hachlata free?

Yes, completely free. It's supported by monthly sponsorships from the community, with no ads and no tracking.

Is my information private?

Private by default. The details of your hachlatos are never shown publicly. Leaderboards show only a username, a category, and a streak — never what you took on. No ads, no tracking.

What happens on Shabbos and Yom Tov?

Your streak is protected. Reminders go quiet, nothing is lost, and you simply log after Havdala.

How do streaks work?

Check in each day and your streak climbs while your symbol grows through stages. There's no guilt if you miss a day — you just pick right back up.

Can I use it with friends?

Yes. Start a chabura, take things on together, follow each other's streaks, and cheer each other on.

What kinds of hachlatos can I take on?

Anything — across Learning, Davening, Halacha, Minhagim, Hiskashrus, Community, and personal good resolutions.
