Nice app

This app is lowkey underrated only found it through cahtgpt

Warning

Stay away from this app!

I subscribed to this app for three months and entered my credit card details on their website. Shortly after I canceled my subscription, I noticed three unauthorized, unknown charges on my account totaling €150. I had never used this card for online payments before. I spent a long time researching and considering whether these payments could have been caused by me.

If you want to use the app, which otherwise works well, it's better to use Apple's in-app purchase option.

To the developers: Please check the security of your payment service providers.

Good idea but bad execution

The idea behind this is brilliant but it’s not all the way there. The inferences are accurate sometimes but many times says things that are just blatantly not true.

Credit Card Details Up Front !

They grab your credit card details before you can even use the app. Not cool.

This is the one

I tried them all before I learned about Exist. This app has been incredibly useful, serving me up some very interesting correlations within the first 30 days. Everything is on a day-level granularity, which prevents me from the trap of capturing too much information, and the use of customizable tags and attributes make it very powerful. There’s not a whole lot you can’t do here, you can have it track whatever’s important to you. Do read the set up instructions and FAQ, and the ethos of this company to never share any data ever with third parties. 30 day trial means there’s no downside. I’m a huge fan.

Great

Having used exist since 2017, I can 100% say I wouldn’t be without it!

Great app, great insights that get better as you gather more data.

Best app for tracking health improvement.

I just want to say thank you to the developers, this app has been so good to me. My apple watch will automatically sync a lot of my activities and right before bed time I will input my manual tracked attributes and its great! It has helped me realize that I am improving in my mental and physical health. It allows you to look back and see where you may need to focus in order to achieve your goals. Its great to have these insights. Recommend for anyone working on mental and physical well being and/or trying to kick a habit.

Lacking features

It functions fine and is lightweight. You are unable to track custom text entries and it lacks proper tagging.

Amazing, Life Changing App. Newest Updates Are Great

This app can change your life. Don’t wait.

I like the new custom attributes update

Please keep working on features, well get multiple moods someday!

Brilliant app

I have been using the app & service for years. It’s the best tracking app I have found and I’ve tried loads. The range and depth of data that is collected together is fantastic. The insights and trend information is the best part - being able to view different insight comments each day gives you a great quick overview of how you’re doing. Then if you have more time you can dive into details about trends and correlations. Please keep developing it’s such a great app/service. It’s obviously a labour of love. Would be lovely to have an Apple Watch app too.

Great for data nerds

If u love to track everything and use integrations this app is awesome.

Couldn’t even create a password

Tried to sign up, but each password I used was too weak according to their standards - standards which they DON’T state or list. Just a vague “too weak”. Security is great, don’t get me wrong - just list the rules and don’t waste my time.

Locked up on adding a tag

Including after app restart

Response from developer

Sorry you're having trouble! Since you've deleted your account already so I can't look into this issue for you but if you'd like to try Exist again, please feel free to get in touch about any issues you have and we'll be happy to look into them for you. Sorry for the hassle!

Best Gyroscope Alternative

It’s sad to see HelloCode selling Exist.io to me it’s better than gyroscope and a better and cheaper alternative. Brilliant work guys 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ridiculous password requirements

I couldn’t get passed the ridiculous password requirements on sign up. Apparently a 17 character password including letters, numbers, and special characters is “too weak”.

Mood rating broken

The dialog for mood rating is broken since the latest release.

Usability lacking

I think there’s a tonne of improvement needed for the UX and the app generally feels a bit dated.

Some integrations aren’t working.

I have some concerns as to the predatory trial/sub approach even though you state it in a few places I still find it sneaky and easy to miss. It’s rare to find mobile app that charges this way, maybe the remnants of your Web app approach that needs adaptation to the mobile market. As a company that claims to pride themselves on openness, I find this approach somewhat hypocritical.

Clean design, but a little buggy

Using the app is pleasant and intuitive, but when I click the 'Review' tab, it crashes.

Great

Great app and service.

I mainly use the web version on computer but I use the app for tagging and mood.

Trends are a bit basic which is why I use web version.
