Not worth it.

Not worth it. Needs better organization of function

June 30 isn’t available 🤔 A bit untested.

First day using this app and I’ve been prompted many times to rate it. That’s annoying but not too unusual these days. Also due date is marked as optional but not sure how you get no date - if you don’t set a date it sets as today’s date. I’ve now set up 3 goals, each with action steps and due dates and a picture too. This was after some trial and error however. I’m not terrible with tech but somehow kept entering a goal and then it would disappear . Went around in circles for too long considering the “tutorial” should really have explicitly instructed on how to lock things in and move to the next step- the tutorial says WHAT you can do but not explicit enough on the how. Ok the final reason for rating - which I usually wouldn’t do after using an app for all of 20 mins - was that I tried setting 30 June 2024 as a due date and it didn’t actually appear in the calendar. So that brought the rating down as did the going in circles and the annoying prompts for a rating beginning after what felt like moments of using the app. Feels like it hasn’t been tested enough - blank screens for privacy policy and terms and conditions. Doesn’t leave me feeling in safe hands.

More freedom to organize

Easy to use and good concept.

I’d like to make my own categories beside the three Adventure, Travel and Health. I have a subset of adventure goals by different regions and I’d like to be able to see the individual region only.

Good but could be better

I like the app alot, but some improvements I’d like to see (sooner rather than later) would be 1) action steps should operate like a task list where you can scratch off completed tasks as you get closer to your goals (please!!)
2) more pre loaded pictures for more hobbies/goal activities
3) more pre loaded goal ideas with action steps built in to help people gets heard start on meeting their goals (for instance, Goal: run a marathon would have an option to come with a loaded checklist of a sample training plan that could be edited, obviously)

With these three changes this app would be indispensable!

I love this app and I’m wondering if I can help promote it on my tiktok and Instagram, it’s alexamatthewss on Instagram and notalexamatthews tiktok. Let me know if you are interested !!

Still in development mode

I feel bad giving 1 star, but the app doesn’t work and it really seems like the app I’m looking for from the descriptions.

I clicked to sign up with Facebook and it states I don’t have access as the app is still ‘in development mode’ - which is confusing since there’s a lot of reviews.

I went to fill in my details manually, and just as I completed all of the details, the app closed itself and I had to start from scratch.

I’m doing this on an iPad, so I’m not sure whether that’s an issue.

Will be very happy to change to the review if I’m able to gain access at a later date 😁

Awful, Couldn’t even use the app

I have never used any sort of bucket list app before and this app wouldn’t let me sign up with any of my emails. Everytime I tried to sign up it said I already have an account even though I know for a fact I have never even made a bucket list before. I then tried to login but there wasn’t a “forgot password” button anywhere it only proceeded to tell me to login through Facebook. I then tried to login to Facebook but it was saying that Facebook won’t let me login. Super frustrated.

Hi thatviolinisist, we're sorry about the hiccup. That rare sign-up outage has now been fixed! Would you please try again so you can fully see what we've built for you?! Again, sorry for the hassle but we're back to normal now! Thanks, Liz

Has potential

A lot of steps to go through in order to add things. How do I put a due date and time on all the things I want to do? Like conceptually, it makes no sense. Adding a picture is also cumbersome. Ideas for bucket list items are scant.

Thanks for your feedback yungstud. We are always working to make our apps better and better. I will pass along your comments to our developers. Keep watching for updates that will correct these issues. - Cheers! Liz

Great idea. Not user friendly

This app has great potential. It’s fun and straight forward, but...

I have a project that I aim to finish is 4 years. There are 11 sub-goals. It is frustrating to have to go month by month to November 2023. Even if I edit a date, it goes back to the current month.

The synchronization is very slow. You can’t see or edit tasks until it’s done syncing.

Many/most of my goals don’t need a cost associated. Each task says “cost = 0” instead of omitting it. Needless noise.

Hi IngoR! Thanks so much for your great feedback. We're glad you like it and agree on your points. We have a big update (1.1.9) releasing next week that has a bunch of this updated but we'll also update to remove the $0.00 cost and allow for a yearly scroll. Please check out the update and let us know if we're getting there :). Thanks! - Dane

Useless App

Setting up a bucket list is more work then it needs to be.

Hi coldhome, thanks for your feedback. Feel free to let us know how we can make this a 5-star experience for you! Best, Nicole
