### 5/5 — Awesome⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

*2026-04-05, version 2026.12.0*

This is the best app I have ever used it is completely free and you can make your own tasks to do it also has options on which ones to add it also sends me reminders if I set them. Best app ever everyone deserves it and it holds you accountable. Love it so much

### 5/5 — How is this free?

*2026-03-23, version 2026.11.0*

I Still dont believe i found this app, it helps me track my daily habbits, and most important of them all it is absolutely free!!

### 5/5 — Best one of these apps I’ve found yet!

*2026-03-02, version 2026.10.0*

It’s right in the apps description-but it’s essentially a super minimalist goal tracking app. Love all the stats it records for your goals you make for yourself. This app does everything you need it to do with very little drama. There’s not pets to take care of, there’s no flashy graphics or anything, and that is just perfect for me!

### 5/5 — Simple but great

*2026-02-24*

Very well developed app - still a bit simple, but it feels good to use.

**Developer response:** Thanks for taking the time to leave a review! - Emily :]

### 4/5 — One of the best apps for helping you maintain your goals

*2026-02-18, version 2026.6.0*

I’ve been using Goal Streak for about two years now and I grown into a much much much better person than anything I could’ve expected my only issue is that the note taking doesn’t really have a point to it.

### 5/5 — AMAZING!!!!

*2026-02-05, version 2025.38.0*

No in app perchases, no annoying things, and so many useful features! 5 stars can’t recommend more

### 5/5 — Best task app and no IAp bs!

*2026-01-03, version 2025.38.0*

This app works great and none of the features that you actually need are hidden by some paywall!

### 5/5 — Well crafted app!

*2026-01-01, version 2025.38.0*

Kudos to the developer for creating such a thoughtful, well-made app! Truly appreciate the time.

### 5/5 — Loved the app

### 1/5 — Widget is useless.

*2025-11-18, version 2025.38.0*

Widget does and shows absolutely nothing. If I’m missing something, then it’s not very intuitive. I have no clue how to get the widget to show any data. Just says 0% ALL the time.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2025-10-31, version 2025.38.0*

Ever since I updated to iOS 26 the app immediately crashes when I try to open

### 3/5 — Really good app - helps me hit my daily goals

*2026-06-29, version 2026.24.0*

I like this app. It reminds me to complete every day tasks such as (exercising, drinking x amount of water etc. ) I like how it calculates how much you’ve completed. 

Only con is it would be nice if there was a monthly overview of your progress

### 3/5 — Organization

*2026-01-08, version 2025.38.0*

works well I just wish it categorized it better. By the way you put it in or the time that it is set for.

### 3/5 — Issues with updating goals

*2025-12-10, version 2025.38.0*

I created several goals and noticed there’s issues with updating the symbols. Once changed in the edit section, it instantly changes back to the original symbol (glitch). 

Also, goals sometimes come to an end. Can you please add an ‘end date’ option? For example, I’m starting a goal practice driving weekly, and to take my G test. Once I get my licence, this goal will be completed. I noticed there’s no way to end that goal, it just continues to get repeated into the next month. I understand there’s a delete goal option, however, I would like to see my progress when I look back instead of deleting all of my success.

### 3/5 — Good app, but broken under iOS 26

*2025-09-22, version 2025.36.0*

Good app. Does its job. Please fix it for iOS 26. Instantly crashes!

### 3/5 — a suggestion

*2024-02-23*

this app is everything that i want. i need to see my progress every day in order to get that motivation. other apps are not solely designed for this matter but this app at least going towards that direction but the app itself is so slow it would be really great if u fix that and make circles a little bigger so i accidentally don’t press other circles. please i need this thank you

**Developer response:** Oh man sorry it's acting slow that's weird! I'll look into it. If you're having a hard time hitting the circles on the main calendar you can toggle over to the daily view to toggle your habits - definitely a larger tap target over there. Thanks for your review!

### 4/5 — Nice app, but two things I would recommend to add

*2026-05-21*

Overall a nice App. 

Two things I would improve. 

First, if I set a reminder for a goal, I get the reminder wether I already have it achieved for this day or not. I would prefer to not get the reminder in case I already marked it as completed for the day. 

Second, it would be cool to see on the widget whether I have done my goal for today or not by just a change of the colour of the streak widget. For example a grayed out version if it’s still to do and a coloured version if it’s done.

**Developer response:** Oooh great ideas! Thank you for leaving a review!

### 4/5 — Would be perfect with watch support

*2026-04-27, version 2026.13.0*

Absolutely love this app!  Clean and aesthetic.  Would love an Apple Watch app support

### 4/5 — Good app but would like to see apple health integration

*2026-04-26, version 2026.13.0*

I really like this habit app but would like to see apple health integration for exercise, water intake, steps, sleep hours, etc

### 5/5 — Please keep this free

*2026-08-03, version 2026.24.0*

This app is perfect and would not change a thing. Thank you so much for making it!!

### 5/5 — phenomenal app!

*2026-06-18, version 2026.24.0*

just downloaded this app today and setting up all of my habits was so easy. also i love how i didn’t need to pay to use a certain amount of habits 🙏 !! literally a life changing app, and i will have this the rest of my life

### 5/5 — Best app

*2026-05-29, version 2026.15.0*

Its free and simple thanks!

### 5/5 — Super user friendly

*2026-05-29, version 2026.15.0*

In a world where literally every service is locked behind a pay wall, this is like a breath of fresh air, super neat and complete :)

### 5/5 — helps me keep habits so well

*2026-05-24, version 2026.13.0*

i’m convinced this is the only way i can actually be consistent doing things. i first wanted an app like this to keep track of how many days i could go without using heat and now it literally works SO WRLL. i highly highly recommend this app especially if you are bad at letting your streaks go once you start (if you have a really high streak on duolingo for example) then this could work sooo well for you as it did for me

### 5/5 — So glad I found this app!

*2026-04-19, version 2026.13.0*

I love this app, so many habit apps are expensive and require an account. Some are too involved, but this one is clean and straightforward and easy to use with great features.  Well done!

### 5/5 — The best for free goal tracking app

*2026-04-10*

Not much to say, a must have !!!

**Developer response:** Love to hear it! - Emily :]

### 5/5 — Look no further

*2026-04-08, version 2026.12.0*

Genuine thank you for making a reliable free app. Exactly what I was looking for. Simple, good. Thanks :)

### 5/5 — reliable, functional, humble

*2026-04-07, version 2026.12.0*

this is a quality app that gets the job done. i love and appreciate that it is actually ad-free and built/maintained by an individual female developer— THANK YOU. the app itself maintains a simplicity that is versatile: it removes a direct emphasis on urgency and/or self-competition, but alsooo could easily be used as an encouragement tool for those preferring to reach 100% every day!
the bug fixes are infrequent and, if necessary, productive, actually addressing any bugs that might be present (any of which being hardly noticeable, regardless). 
an app of this quality and simplicity is apparently rare and hard to come by. whenever i recommend this app, i do so with confidence.

### 5/5 — Just excellent

*2026-04-07*

Love it ❤️

**Developer response:** Merci! - Emily :]
