Real-Time Detection for
Hair Pulling, Skin Picking & Nail Biting

Your privacy is our top priority. All video processing happens locally on your device - no webcam data is ever transmitted, stored, or shared. HabitCam only connects to the internet for initial license validation and when you choose to check for updates. Otherwise, it works completely offline.

Click the icon to open the main window, or right-click for quick access to key features like starting/stopping detection and quitting the application.
