### 5/5 — Nice!

*2024-03-02*

App is cool, always wanted something like this!

Couple of things I’d like to request:
- Ability to add images - as a proof of milestones or idea information
- Widget to see random stuff, like milestones achieved
- Make app to default to specific app - I only log one app.

Thank you 🙌
