Superb

Love the app, highly recommended for tracking long term goals, short term goals and building daily habits. Use it daily and is on page 1 in the home screen.

Great app, hugely helpful.

I have lots of very different daily activities in my work and each has their own importance and priority. All of them can be divided into specific categorise. This app really helps to list and schedule those activities, allocate time, get them in the right order and tick them off as they are done, following prompts that pop up. Itโ€™s really simple to set up and has made me much more productive and more efficient.

Got me back on track

I started with the free version and it wasnโ€™t long until I saw the potential and invested in Strides. I say invested because, it is truly that, an investment into my health, finances and life in general. Iโ€™m so happy and canโ€™t wait for Strides to add more features like more charts online or maybe an export to excel function? But so far I am very happy. Iโ€™ve recommended this app to everyone I know!! โญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ

Much Better Than Similar Free Apps

I looked everywhere for an app to replace my series of reminders on my Apple reminder app, which becomes too stressful. I tried a few apps that had limitations to how many tasks you could set. This app has many tasks available in the free version (at least 6). I also love that you can categorize a task as a percentage goal, a yes/no, a bad habit, and a numerical goal.

I struggle with feeling depressed and unmotivated. I also have a chronic illness that I need to treat, and I find myself unable to keep up with treatments. The streak tracker and calendar in the app motivate me to do all my tasks because I have a visual. I'm getting everything I need done. I love this app!

So helpful

Using it to track the basic self-care things I need to do to stave off depression e.g. stay sober, eat healthy. Easy to set up and use, attractive and simple design. Keeps me accountable and gives me a sense of achievement. Helps me to clearly see how easy it can be to neglect these basics and how that ties in to feeling down. Developers obviously listen to feedback and have added ability to expand mood options, although the interface for this could be simpler.

Great productivity app!

I have started quite a few new good habits using this app. Being able to set multiple reminders, set goals, bad habits, statistics and many more other features.

The only thing I wish is that it had more statistics. That being said you can make and vote on suggestions in the app!

Well thought out, great for tracking progress!

This is a great app for tracking your progress on you habits. Ever since all the great updates recently created this year, the app is among the best planning tools. Personally, I prefer to use my physical paper planning tools for this sort of stuff, but the format of the app makes it worth it. It gives a clean view of your progress and an easy way to track it. The last great part for me is that it keeps me accountable. I cringe each time I have to mark a "No" for my habit that day, and it motivates me to do it.

Being a teenager in high school, normally I NEVER take the time to write a review for something. This is only the third thing I have ever reviewed on the Internet, and it's only if I find something incredible.

If you actually use this app for real, and go out and do the work, you can develop very successful goal setting habits. Don't wait for New Years Eve to start. START TODAY! Go out all accomplish your goals! Strides can help you do that if you willing to put in the work and dedicate yourself. However, remember that even the best of productivity tools can't make you productive if you don't go out there in real life and crank out that workout or whatever your trying to do.

Thank you Strides for the great app!

Disappointed- Apple Watch

I really like this app and really would love to use it. I have looked at almost all of the habit apps and love how this incorporates goals and how you can mark some habits as โ€œbadโ€ to reduce the frequency of the habit. My big complaint and disappointment is with the watch app. I want to be able to see my progress on the watch and this app, while it does have an interface in the watch, does not have any complications listed to put on the watch face. It seems so minor, but this is important to me to keep on track with my goals and habits. Sadly I will just have to keep looking in the App Store for something else, but I had really thought I found the app I was looking for with this. Maybe if they decide to add this at some point I would consider using it, but once I find an app I am happy with I donโ€™t know if I would want to change entire apps suddenly.

The only habit tracker Iโ€™ve stuck with

Iโ€™ve tried so many and Strides is by far the best! Itโ€™s also one of the more basic and simple (by design). Iโ€™ve been using it for about a year and a half and havenโ€™t looked back. Itโ€™s impossible to improve or change your habits without tracking them. Strides makes it easy and itโ€™s really neat to see some of the stats over long periods of time. Iโ€™ve always been able to make the โ€œrightโ€ kind of habit with this app (good vs. bad, daily vs. weekly, multiple reminders, and a lot more), there is a ton of customization you can do.

Dropped in to say I LOVE the new Daily Goals view. It makes checking in at the end of the day a breeze. The old way was slightly clunkier. Thank you for this app, and continuing to update it, itโ€™s really helped me become a better person by changing some of my habits!

Just needs some stars!

I love this app and have tried a few habit tracker apps. The only improvement I would make, and I think this would make a big difference, is on the dashboard, rather than having the linear day (which confused me at first glance), have a little M T W Th F S Su with a little star or dot beneath, to give the user a quick glance of their progress! So if I have missed a day, on the dashboard I can see this quickly and then go to the main tracker page and look at my progress. Please do this as it will make a big difference!
