Decent

I like the app. I’m using the free version. I just don’t like that I can’t go back to the previous day to track habits. Sometimes I forget to check them off one day and want to go back the next day to check them off, but that’s not an option.

Response from developer

Hey, Thanks for the feedback! We will look to add this in to a future update!

Best for Longtime Goals!!

I don’t usually write reviews for apps, but I loved this one so much that I felt like I had to. As someone in a low income household it’s been very hard to find a good goal and habit tracking app that I could use. It does have a paid version, but the paid version only unlocks the digital journaling and journal prompts, but the rest of it is completely free to use. I can’t pay to have more than three habits or goals, but I don’t have to worry about that with this app. I tend to get distracted easily, so I like how simple and minimalist the design of the app is. With your goals you can set how far you’ve progressed and a deadline of when you would like to complete it. It’s all organized so cleanly and so well, and most of all I don’t have to pay to use it. And I am more than okay with having an ad or two to be able to have all of these features free. However, it is only seven dollars a year, and I am highly considering getting the paid version.

Perfect!

Just the app I want looking for! You don't need to pay at all unless you want a few small features but the free version allows you to add your own habits and how often you want to do them.
