I wrote Slightly Robot to help myself with this problem. The app is pretty basic. You can press a button to record how many times you do it per day. It doesn't have all the graphs and stuff Tickmate does, but you can hook it up to certain wearables for automatic tracking. Android only at the moment, but we're planning to release an iOS version in a few weeks.
Unfortunately Fitbit does not have an open API to let us do that. It would be really really hard, and kind of illegal. We do have an Android Wear app that does this, and we're getting around to Apple Watch. It would be nice to put it on things people already have though.
My brother and I have spent several months developing an Android app Slightly Robot specifically for trich that tracks your progress. If you have an Android Wear smartwatch it'll automatically detect when you're pulling your hair so that you don't need to remember to input the data manually. (This also helps you notice when you're pulling your hair unconsciously.) If an Android Wear smartwatch is too expensive for you, or you want to track both hands, we're developing a smaller wearable that can also detect when you're pulling your hair.
The app is and will always be free and contains no advertising. It's pretty basic right now so if you want more features just let us know and we can add them.
Try using Slightly Robot. For me monitoring the no. Of hairs, I pulled, helped me reduce it gradually. However, it is really important, to be honest with yourself, even if it is a tiny hair, it does count.
It’s an addition/habit breaker, but I use it for trich. It’s a free app called I am sober, and it’s only available on iOS and iPadOS devices. Here’s the link to it on the App Store - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/i-am-sober/id672904239
If you’re using an Android handset, here’s the link to a similar app called Slightly Robot on the Google Play Store - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slightlyrobot.seabiscuit&hl=en_US
