Ok but one thing

Can you guys make it so I can manually sort my goals? I want to rank them in order of importance or by date due. Otherwise very happy with my purchase. Also maybe a feature to separate goals by type? Or even or by long term and short term?

love it

Just started using it and it keeps me motivated! The satisfying haptic feedback actually makes me look forward to checking off the daily habits and built in AI gives helpful advice for all the different goals.

Best apps I've used for tracking

Really nice app, cant wait to see it develop further

Keeps Crashing

Just download Gola again in 2026, devs have fixed the app with better features. I’m glad I’m able to use it properly and it’s been working well for tracking my meditation minutes and workouts. I’ve been using it 6-7 times a week to keep track of things.

Give credit when it’s due!

I am pleased with the recent corrections and adjustments. I have adjusted my review accordingly. I highly recommend this app to help trace goals for the new year!!

getting there!

love the app so far! downside is its very glitchy & crashes a lot, and the design aspect could use some work, no sure they should be charging monthly or yearly subscription atm as the app still needs a lot of work though

Keeps Crashing

I paid 1 year subscription last year and since then I’ve not been able to use this stupid app

Family sharing

I downloaded the app to share it with my wife so we can edit at the same time, and it said it was possible before I made the purchase and now I cant

Doesn’t send notifications everyday.

Waste of money

Aveva del potenziale

L’ho installata un anno fa ma era piena di bug, tanto fa doverla, a malincuore disinstallarla. Dopo un anno la situazione è quasi sempre la stessa

Response from developer

I’m so sorry to hear this, I am working hard on a big re-write focused on improving the data structure and syncing but unfortunately this takes a lot more time than anticipated. I hope you will give Gola another try in the (near) future!

I love it! I just have an issue

I love this app! It’s probably one of my favorite apps on my phone. I have been looking for an app that helps me keep track of my goals, and honestly, this is the perfect solution.
However, I have been facing an issue: every time I update my goals, it resets my progress to what it was before. I have to try at least 3-4 times before it registers my progress. Is there anything that I’m doing wrong?

No me deja eliminar una meta

La app me gusta mucho pero no me deja eliminar una meta que cree por error

Response from developer

Gracias por compartir tu experiencia. Nos alegra que te guste la app. Estamos trabajando para resolver este inconveniente. Te avisaremos en cuanto esté solucionado.

So pretty!

I paid for this app right when I saw the initial UI. So beautiful! The sounds, haptics, animation and design - so fluid and a pleasure to use!

So I mean, if there are people out there who’s skimping on paying their UI/UX devs - this is for you. 😌😁❤️

Now let me go actually use the app! 😅

Widgets don’t work

Widgets don't work. The unit of measurement of the target does not change to "+" and "-".

No Regular Updates

The apps is good but the app is updated once in a century, the sub goals label keeps switching back to the default “Goals”

Concept is great.

I really want this app to work. If it didn’t have so many bugs, didn’t erase progress entered, and the widget synced correctly the app would be great. Unfortunately, it only works about 1/3 of the time and I have to constantly re-add the progress I inputted because it doesn’t save.

Bit weird

Seems a bit sluggish, a couple Of times it has not saved the updates I've made.

Great just want one more feature

It’s a great app and a very reasonable price for all the features. The only thing that I need to make it 5 stars would be reoccurring goals. For example I have goals that I want to accomplish every week and some for every day but I can’t actually complete them all because I don’t want to pull them out of the archive every time I do. If we could get a goal that clears and resets on a set day or days that would be fantastic. But that’s just a small issue and I plan on continuing to use this to keep track of what I have to do. Thank you for making this wonderful app.

Thinks different, like the old Apple

Updated 9/17/2024:
Performance issues eliminated after last update. Thank you. 🙏 Now the app is quite usable, and worthy of the final star. I still hope we will see some new updates following the iOS 18 rollout and a few new enhancements/features that we can look forward to. 🤞

Unique take on tasks management.

Helps you turn your todo list into a goal list.
I do like the UI and the pleasing themes on the eye. There are some areas I could suggest improvement.

It appears the Performance level wanes the more info you add to its database. Scrolling becomes sluggish and unresponsive at times. If you delete a goal sometimes the app freezes.

Search is a nice feature but you can’t find more than 2 goals at a time. It completely hides additional goals with the same search terms. It does search in both title and notes. I have tested. But still only finds the first two at most in the search results.

Those basics need to be fixed before it can become a daily staple on your phone. Even still I want to use the app because it’s so cool and different.

I would also suggest the sub-goals be renamed as tasks. Or let sub-goals be broken down into tasks for another layer or organization.

The URL attachment is a nice feature and it even works with Callback URLs / deep links (so few apps allow tappable links to callback URLs). This lets you link to a Bear note for example to hold further details or resources for your goal / project.

I love that you can add an icon or emoji to each Goal.

I would like a simple habit tracking / task option for regular recurring tasks, habit or routines. It would allow you to consolidate your habit and recurring activities into one app.

System Calendar integration would be icing on the cake — so you could see your day’s schedule while making your goal plan for the day.

A calendar view that you could assign goals you want to work on for the day, week or month. And a log view — a way to see the progress as you check off items on your goals in one place — not just goals fully completed but those you took action on for the day. You checked off a subgoal or added a value to another goal, etc.

Image attachments for goals — because a picture would provide added motivation and help you visualize the fruition of your goal.

A scratch pad for time-stamped notes and ideas nestled neatly under the goal — a place for important notes about the goal, that you want to reference — that go beyond the scope of the goal description.

Loads of possibilities and potential and the fact that it has a working Apple Watch app is a huge plus.

I realize most of these suggestions will be thrown out into the ethers. Here’s hoping one of them might stick and that the review actually gets posted. With Apple’s ai algorithms you never know.

If for nothing else, maybe this will reach the developer for a day or two before the ai robot in its infinite wisdom, takes it down.

Big Tech censorship is part of our world now — I wonder what Steve Jobs would have thought about it. The original Apple motto was Think Different. Now it appears they want us to think relatively the same and keep our mouths shut about anything that could trigger some critical thinking in the other slaves, who don’t yet realize they are trapped in the matrix.

Good luck with the app. And thanks for thinking different.
