just started

just started using and I already love the haptics! every app should use such haptics and sound feedbacks. Awesome interface as well really cool

Crucial for ADHD

This app is so based for tracking habits and setting goals! If you have ADHD sometimes even just remembering to brush ur teeth can funk you up but anything you wanna set a goal for can be tracked and rewarded and the interface is absolutely beautiful (hello vapor wave icon 😍)
The dev is a solid dude and I’m excited to use it with the Structured Pro app.
$8 is a bargain for lifetime access, how much have you spent on notebooks and planners?! 🥲🤣
Jus do it!

Great UI but many bugs

The UI is fantastic and I paid for a yearly subscription. However there are just so many bugs. Sometime deleting one goal will remove all the goals, and you need to force quit the app to let them reappear. Setting a progress goal with a target of zero can lead to many NaN errors. Also, I cannot find the app in the widget list. Love the haptic feedback but really annoyed by all the bugs.

Give credit when it’s due!

I am pleased with the recent corrections and adjustments. I have adjusted my review accordingly. I highly recommend this app to help trace goals for the new year!!

Hidden gem; fantastic app

This app is amazing. So many goals apps are “streak trackers” - that works for some people but not others. Gola is flexible; you can track your goal in a way that works for you; for that particular goal. It’s a simple, easy to use design. Nothing is hidden away or tucked behind an extra menu; it’s all intuitive to set things up.

Also, the developer is quite lovely. Very responsive to questions and bugs reports - cheerful, friendly, and *fast* with fixes. You can’t go wrong with this app. The lifetime premium is absolutely worth it to support this amazing app and developer!

Great app,simple and useful, but sub-goal can’t check in on the watch

I set my goal in the phone, but sub-goal can’t check in on the Apple Watch. it shows loading advice for ever.

Not working properly

I like the layout of this app for tracking goals but it isn’t working properly for me. My goals keep changing on their own, such as goal title changes, the icons won’t stay, the goal type won’t stay. I’m saving after making changes but things are messed up when I go back into the app or even just when I hit “back” to go to my main list. Seems super glitchy. It’s disappointing that it doesn’t work even though I paid for the subscription. Help?

Response from developer

Hey, I'm sorry you experiencing syncing issues, is there any chance you could send a bug report via the "Report Bug" button in Gola's settings on your phone? (Default mail client required) This would help me a lot to find what could cause it. Again, sorry to hear you have these issues!

Best haptics I’ve ever seen an app

Beautifully calibrated haptics, simple design and a joy to use but:

— the Reset goal button doesn’t work — I tried to reset a goal that was a countdown back to zero and haptics registered but no change
— it gives random suggestions for goals — like telling me I should use an app to track books I’ve read associated with my smoking cessation goal

Response from developer

Thank you for your kind words! I've noticed the advice is a bit shuffled too, so I'm working on a fix for that! Should be solved soon

Buggy and constantly forcing me to start over!!

Sadly I am altering my review. It was 5 stars when it was working. Now I have been forced to load items twice, I go to check my progress and everything has been deleted and I am forced to start again. I wanted to love this app but now! Not so much!
