Great app

Finally a flexible app that isn’t just a one-faceted habit tracker, typical journal app, or one of those fluffy and overwhelming motivational coaches that isn’t tailored super well. Def a lifetime user because of the multiple tools and customization. I also love supporting a small team. The developers responded to me personally and truly really care.

Exactly what I was looking for

This app beautifully combines goal setting with habit tracking in a clear and aesthetically pleasing way. Very happy indeed.

Blown Away

I was recently contacted personally from one of the developers. They sent a comprehensive response and addressed the issues raised.

These people really care. They have worked hard to produce a powerful and impactful app that adds value to people’s lives.

Thank you for all your help.

Great app for New Years resolutions

I’ve tried a lot of different apps for goals and habits but I find this one to be the smoothest and most flexible. It helped me achieve my goal of finishing a triathlon. The reminders helped me stay on track — normally I’m an “out of side out of mind” person but this has helped a lot.

This app helped me get it together!

I saw this app recommended on Reddit and ended up buying the premium version so that I could have multiple goals. I’ve loved that you can tailor the type of tracker and planner to use for each goals. The customizable options have helped me organize basically every section of my life (like tracking my exercise and inputting grad school due dates). I really feel like I’m on top of it now and will probably renew my subscription!

No way! Sometimes Reddit restores my faith in humanity, seriously. Much love! — Katie (cofounder)

Good Tools

I found that the tools they give you to reach your goals are helpful. They are adjustable to what you want to work on and how you measure success. I did splurge on the $9.99 membership because there was more than one goal that I wanted to achieve in 2021. I enjoy the colors and emoji symbols they use to help personalize the Goals. The only hiccup is that the tools are added to your goal as you go. I ended up with my Planning tool at the bottom, Milestones at the top and Measurements and Reminders scattered within the Goal I set up. I just sent an email to find out if there is a work around other than re-doing everything in an order I wanted.

MasonEnvy, you’re awesome. Thank you for taking the time to write a review! I appreciate you more than words can describe 🥹🤩 — Katie (cofounder)

One of my favorite apps!

I’ve been using this app for the past 8 months or so and it’s amazing! North Star is the only habit tracking app I’ve been able to consistently use for more than a couple of weeks. It’s visually appealing, intuitive, and simple - while still having useful customization options. Using this app helped me pay off $10k in debt this year! 💰

Moreover, their customer service is top notch. I sent question about the app through the feedback feature and received a thoughtful and personalized email from one of the co-founders. The team cares deeply about the quality of the app and I have no doubt that this app will only get better with time.

I highly recommend North Star and tell everyone I know about it!

Loving it thus far!

I been using the app for a few months now, I love the design and how simple it is.
I also enjoy the fact that the developers are quick to respond if there are any issues found.
I’m also very grateful to the caring developers for letting me try it premium for a year, that was awesome and shows them going above and beyond my expectations .
One thing I would suggest ( if possible) is a way to improve the calendar of the app. I would love to see if there is a way to make the calendar look bigger and include even the habits for each goal being shown or schedule in there. ( hope I make sense). I’m a very calendar oriented person and when I set up a habit I usually write down for each day or week on my own personal calendar which helps me keep track and stay motivated if I’m able to see it regularly.
Since I cannot carry a calendar with me I been looking for good app alternatives to keep track of my goals. So far this app is amazing, gorgeous and with a lot of potential. Keep it up! And looking forward to the future of this app :D thank you!
