Great app

Good app, a few glitches

I love this app and the flexibility it offers. There are currently still a few issues with some habits appearing on the list earlier than they’re supposed to and receiving notifications for habits that have already been completed or don’t need to be completed until a later date. A request I’d like to make is the option to archive habits instead of fully deleting them as there are some habits I no longer need but would like to keep a record of the data.

Hold yourself accountable

I have been using it for years. I love it for its simplicity.

Favourite habit app

The most flexible app for habit tracking. Clean design, functional and easy to use. Much respect for the one time payment model, worth purchasing.

Game changer

Love the versatility of this app. It has helped me to make and break habits, and bring more order and peace into my life. I can set reminders, mark items as missed or skip, very intuitive and also aesthetically pleasing.

Formerly great app, now buggy

I have used this app for many years and I’d always felt it was the best habit app available. Unfortunately there are now bugs with the frequency of some habits and they will continue to show up as needing to be completed every day even when they have just been done and shouldn’t be showing up again for days or weeks. The app is now too broken to be useful for me and I am looking for a replacement. Please fix because I love the app when it works as intended!

Better than ever

I've been using this app for 3 years. The updated version is an improvement to an already simple and easy to use interface. Highly recommend if you want something with a minimal learning curve with basic features.

Accordion or chevron arrows?

Maybe add a minimalist way to group tasks? Collapse expand arrows? It can get cluttered

Simple and effective

Easy to set up and use. Well designed.

Syncing would be great

I love this app but the fact it can’t import data or sync to icloud or Apple account is a big miss. I lost my data so many times that I don’t feel like using it again

no more habit list (April 20, 2024)

I have happily used Habit List for many years. It was a great app with a positive effect on my life. Three months ago it stopped working (I am on the most recent iOS). I was given access to a beta of the previous version, which pretty much worked for three months and then expired. Since then I have emailed and tweeted for an update with no response, so now I have no app and no data.

update (October 18, 2024)

Suddenly, for no apparent reason, Habit List works! I exported my data and will (warily) use the app again.

The syncing thing…

I loved this app. Saved all kinds of stuff in it. But from time to time there’s a bug that wipes out all your stuff. There’s no syncing, so when that happens you’re out of luck. I deleted the app and went back to a paper calendar. Hope the app is or will be more reliable soon. I like a digital tracker, but it’s lost my trust.

Works perfectly

No issues. I have premium and use and iPhone 14 Pro Max. Love the simplicity.

Needs an Update

I am a long time user of this app but the most recent update has some annoying typos. Would appreciate it if these could be fixed.
Even after several months the developers still haven’t released an update to fix the typos!

Doesn’t work any more, crashes on opening

I’ve had this app 4 years, it used to be really good. This week I updated my iOS and the app got buggy with list items disappearing randomly after highlighting them, so I updated the app… now the app doesn’t work at all, it just crashes instantly on opening. Absolute rubbish now! Please fix this as I’ll need to swap to someone else’s app

Great! Some small improvements opportunities

Been using this app for years and I love it! Only minor complaint is that I wish I could: - archive habit instead of having to delete them - skip a habit for X days to preempt a vacation or something. Also in the most recent version, my habits that are every X days is showing green when it should be gray and vice-versa. (e.g every 5-7 days, it shows green on day 4 and gray on day 6.) Overall it’s a stellar app and well worth the premium fee. Also really appreciate it’s not a subscription! Thanks for a great experience. 💜

Needs update

No longer works. Keeps crashing

Crashes on iOS 17.4.1

App crashes on launch since latest iOS update. No fix has been released yet.

WARNING - CRASHES BEFORE IT OPENS

After inputting all my habits and using the app for a few months the app starts crashing on opening. I lost all my data and habit lists. I emailed the developer 3 times with no response.

Worked great until April 2024

I use this for five years and it was great. it was cool to see so many years worth of my habit compliance rates. With the April 2024 software update it started crashing for me as soon as I open it. I emailed support but did not receive a reply. I would definitely use this app again if they can stop it from crashing.
