### 5/5 — Love this App!

*2026-07-01*

I’m tracking no alcohol, no peanut butter, daily crunches… it’s fun and helpful to see success. I love the heat map and other views! Thank you!

### 5/5 — Suggestion

*2026-06-30, version 2.1.1*

Loving the tracker. It would be cool if u added a notes section for the specific habit u completed. so u can write a short summary 
or note for that specific day e.g how how it was to complete.

### 5/5 — Cool OLED and Minimal Design

*2026-06-29*

Thanks for free unlimited habits, please add description, x times per week features to habits.

### 5/5 — Good free tracker

*2026-06-28*

Appreciate you taking the time to make app and making it free! Two requests, 1) have the habits sync across iPad and iPhone. 2) have each habit, have it’s own notification reminder option

**Developer response:** Thank you so much — it genuinely means a lot that you took the time, and I'm really glad the free version is useful! 🙏 Good news on #1: cross-device iCloud sync between iPad and iPhone is something I'm actively building right now, so it's on the way. Per-habit notification reminders aren't in yet, but I've added them to my list 📝. Thanks for the thoughtful suggestions!

### 5/5 — Great and simple app but

*2026-06-25, version 2.1.1*

I wish there was a feature to go back one day or two to tick my task as done, because sometimes i forget to tick it, and it already gets to the next dah and no option to go back and tick it.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-06-23*

Thank you for making a useful and free app! Love the usability and flow of the app

**Developer response:** Thank you so much — this made my day! 🥹 I'm really happy the usability and flow click for you, and grateful you're giving Dots a place on your phone. 🙏

### 5/5 — 위젯 투명하게

*2026-06-22*

안녕하세요 개발자님! 덕분에 앱 잘쓰고있습니다. 혹시 미리보기에 있는 것처럼 위젯 투명도를 설정하는 기능은 어디서 설정하면 될까요?

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요, 앱을 잘 써주시고 이렇게 응원까지 남겨주셔서 정말 감사해요! 🥹

말씀하신 투명한 위젯은 iOS 홈 화면 사용자화 기능으로 만드실 수 있어요. 홈 화면 빈 곳을 길게 누르고 → 왼쪽 위 "편집" → "사용자화" 로 들어가신 다음, 아래 메뉴에서 "투명" 을 선택하시면 미리보기처럼 위젯이 배경에 은은하게 비쳐 보입니다. ✨

혹시 잘 안 되시면 언제든 편하게 알려주세요. 좋은 하루 보내세요! 🙏

### 5/5 — Best habit tracking app

*2026-06-21*

I mean what else can i say, its a habit tracker and its pretty dang good, best part? Its free

**Developer response:** Ha, that's about the best review I could ask for — thank you! 🥹 Keeping Dots free and ad-free is something I really care about, so I'm glad it's landing. Happy habit tracking! 🙏

— Dots dev 🌕🌟

### 5/5 — Good app

*2026-06-19*

I suggest you add to Apple Watch

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind words and the suggestion! 🙏 An Apple Watch app is genuinely a great idea, and it's something I do plan to build. I'll be honest though — I don't have a Watch to test on right now, so it won't happen immediately, but it's on my list and I'm planning to work toward it. Thanks for your patience, and stay tuned! 📝

— Dots dev 🌕🌟

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-06-19, version 2.0.1*

Great app for tracking habits. Only problem is the calendar is a day out so when you complete a dot on the Monday it highlights the Sunday before, would be perfect if fixed

### 5/5 — super seamless

*2026-06-16*

no random pop ups—just put your habits in and track them. I really enjoy this app 💜

**Developer response:** "No random pop-ups, just track your habits" — yes, that's the whole idea! 💜 Thank you so much, I'm really happy you're enjoying Dots. 🙏

— Dots dev 🌕🌟

### 5/5 — No subscription needed

*2026-06-09*

Y’all don’t understand how many apps I have had to download and instantly delete bc it has ads or a subscription. Those other apps are pretty much useless unless you pay

**Developer response:** Haha I feel this so much 😄 Keeping Dots free, ad-free and subscription-free is the whole point for me — thank you for the kind words! 🙏 — Dots dev 🌕🌟

### 5/5 — minimal and gets the job done

*2026-06-05*

i like that dots does not try to do so much. it is a simple app to keep track of your habits and does so with an aesthetic widget that is free, which is rare to see now. free apps often have chopped widgets, or widgets just gated behind a subscription. thank you dots

**Developer response:** This means a lot 🙏 Keeping it simple — and the widget free and not chopped — is exactly what I set out to do. Thank you for getting it! — Dots dev 🌕🌟

### 5/5 — It’s free

*2026-05-29*

Very simple to use app I am glad I found it

**Developer response:** Thank you — so glad you found it! 🙏 — Dots dev 🌕🌟

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for

*2026-05-08*

Everything else similar to this app has some kind of subscription model attached, so this works really nicely for me. Would love to have an option to rearrange the order of things.

**Developer response:** Thank you! Good news — you can now rearrange your habits: long-press and drag to reorder, live in the latest update 🎉 Exactly what you asked for. — Dots dev 🌕🌟

### 5/5 — Best free no strings app

*2026-04-21, version 1.0.3*

Does what it says in the best, lean and minimalist way possible. UX designer gets a big shout out.

### 5/5 — Very Useful

*2026-04-14*

It’s helped me already, and I haven’t even seen that much! It would be nice if there was an option for notifications though. (I haven’t played around much yet, so if there is and I just haven’t found it yet my apologies.) Thank you!!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much, that's wonderful to hear! 🙏 No worries — notifications aren't in yet, but you're not the only one asking, so they're on my list 📝 — Dots dev 🌕🌟

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 3/5 — Great daily but no weekly

*2026-04-25, version 1.0.3*

I love the daily tracking for free with no “premium” version, but I feel like we need a weekly/monthly/select days option!

### 4/5 — Love it

*2026-07-23*

Great app, helps motivate me to be productive. I just wish there were more task icons.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much 🙏 Good news — this update adds a batch of new icons (pets included 🐾), so there should be a lot more to pick from now. And if there's a specific icon you'd still like to see, just tell me and I'll add it 📝 Really glad Dots is keeping you productive!
— Dots dev 🌕🌟

### 4/5 — Providing Noticeable Feedback

*2026-07-04*

The menu bar at the bottom blocks views if you have 9+ habits it’s hard to see the last habit because of the menu bar blocking the view. I’m not tracking anything crazy. Waking up without a phone, stretch, workout, skincare, journal, play game, drink water, sleep 8 hours, walk, & vitamins c intake. Backlogging data manually is a little hard because every time I left the app to look at my data in screenshots the calendar of each habit would disappear (not the data). I did it albeit the fact it took a lot of time. The look and feel of the app is great. Simple seamless. I love each view option. Just some minor drawbacks.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for such thoughtful feedback — and for tracking that many habits with Dots! 🙏 Good news on both: the bottom bar hiding your last habit is already fixed in the latest update, and the per-habit calendar disappearing when you leave the app is now fixed too, rolling out in the next one. Honestly, feedback like yours is exactly what's making Dots a better app — thank you so much for taking the time, it truly means the world. 🥹 — Dots dev 🌕🌟

### 5/5 — Simple Pretty Flexible and Shill-free

*2026-08-18*

Thank you. Eager next for notification and donation options.

**Developer response:** Thank you 🙏 That means a lot. Good news on the first one: per-habit reminders are already in — open a habit in the editor and flip on the reminder toggle to pick a time and days 🎉 A tip jar isn't there yet, but you're not the first to offer and I'm genuinely touched — noting it 📝
— Dots dev 🌕🌟

### 5/5 — So far so good

*2026-08-18*

Just set myself up with about 8 habits.  I lose interest in things if they’re too complicated when I’m setting myself up for ease.  This was pleasantly straight forward. Will use this for a while for my morning routine and see how it goes.  Thank you for the simplicity!✨💖✨

**Developer response:** This made my day 🥹 Keeping setup dead simple is the whole point of Dots, so hearing you got through 8 habits without friction is the best feedback I could ask for. Good luck with the morning routine ✨
— Dots dev 🌕🌟

### 5/5 — Great app for tracking habits.

*2026-08-17, version 2.3.1*

As a person who loves seeing the progress day by day, the dots are great and also aesthetically pleasing.

### 5/5 — Simple & nice

*2026-08-14*

Very simple looking and easy to use, no ads or unnecessary features

**Developer response:** Thank you 🙏 No ads and no unnecessary features is a deliberate choice — and honestly it's reviews like this that keep me resisting the urge to pile more on 😄
— Dots dev 🌕🌟

### 5/5 — Free and has widgets

*2026-08-08*

Title explains why I like it. I have not found others that have both. One feature I would like to see is the calendar progress tracker, but instead of only 1 habit you could see up to 4 at once and have each habit take up 1/4 of the box. Or maybe the wider widget but make it so you have several habits stacked on top of each other (imagine a table with the date on the top and the habit on the side). What I am trying to say is I would like to be able to see the progress of multiple habits from my Home Screen without using multiple widgets. Great app.

**Developer response:** Thank you 🙏 Free + widgets is exactly the gap I built Dots for. One thing you may have missed: the Quick Habits widget already puts 4 habits in a single tile, each one tappable 🎉 But a multi-habit history grid — dates across the top, habits down the side — is a different thing, and a really good idea. Noting it 📝

### 5/5 — 목표별로 위젯 띄울 수 있다는 게 최고

*2026-07-31*

다른 트래커 앱 사용하다가 화면 구성/위젯 디자인이 마음에 들지 않아서 오늘 앱스토어보다가 이 Dots를 다운받아봤어요. 깔끔하고 미니멀한 기본 화면에 무엇보다 위젯 디자인도 다양해서 이런 앱을 찾았다는 게 넘 기쁩니다!!

**Developer response:** 위젯 보고 Dots를 골라주셨다니 정말 기뻐요 🥹 Dots는 원래 제가 쓰려고 만들기 시작한 앱인데, 이렇게 많이 써주시니 정말 큰 힘이 됩니다. 깔끔하게 오래 쓰실 수 있도록 계속 다듬어 갈게요. 응원 감사합니다 🙏
— Dots dev 🌕🌟

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-07-27*

Great app, helps motivate me to be productive. I just wish there were more task icons. For example: News article/ Newspaper, Languages (Spanish & Chinese), Broom, Custom (choose your own emoji). Thanks!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much 🙏 Good news — this update adds a batch of new icons (pets included 🐾), so there should be a lot more to pick from now. And if there's a specific icon you'd still like to see, just tell me and I'll add it 📝 Really glad Dots is keeping you productive!

### 5/5 — The best free app for Habit tracking!

*2026-07-10*

By far the most simple app for tracking your habits. Very intuitive and easy to use. Highly recommended!

— Dots dev 🌕🌟

### 5/5 — Cool OLED and Minimal Design

*2026-07-07*

Thanks for free unlimited habits, please add description, x times per week features to habits.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much — glad the OLED look lands for you! 🖤 "X times per week" is already here: when you add a habit you can set its goal to weekly (or monthly) 🎉 A per-habit description isn't in yet, but I've noted it 📝 Appreciate you taking the time! — Dots dev 🌕🌟

### 5/5 — Love this App!

*2026-07-06*

I’m tracking no alcohol, no peanut butter, daily crunches… it’s fun and helpful to see success. I love the heat map and other views! Thank you!

**Developer response:** This made my day — thank you! 🥹 No alcohol, no peanut butter, daily crunches… I love that Dots is part of that, and I'm so glad the heatmap and the different views are clicking for you. Thanks for taking the time to write this 🙏 — Dots dev 🌕🌟
