How things used to be
- used to + base verb describes a former habit or state, often contrasted with now.
- I used to play football. There used to be a shop here.
- It presents the situation as belonging to an earlier period. A former regular habit does not mean the person can never do that activity again.
I used to wake early; my alarm clock misses that version of me.
Form: used to + base verb
- used to + base verb, the same for every subject.
- She used to live in Paris. We used to walk to school.
- Not used to played — the verb stays in its base form.

Only the past
- used to is only for the past.
- For a habit you have now, use the present simple.

Can used to + base verb itself describe a current habit rather than a former one?

No. Used to + base verb presents a former habit or state. For a current habit use present simple; be used to + noun/-ing is a different pattern meaning accustomed to.
Common mistakes
- ❌ I am used to play football. → two different patterns: used to play (past habit) vs am used to playing (accustomed to).
- ❌ I use to get up early. (about now) → ✓ I usually get up early. — no present form of used to.
- ❌ She used to living here. → ✓ She used to live here.
