## Most critical reviews (5 lowest-rated)

### 3/5 — Really good but…

*2025-12-30*

I will instantly make this review five stars if you can, please fix the issue where tapping on the widgets the app… I was a user of the abandoned app Momentum (momentum.cc) for many years, which allows you to adjust your goals from the widget… I purchased this lifetime, but I cannot update my habits from the widget. It opens the app and also doesn’t even mark where I clicked.

**Developer response:** I think it’s already working: you can update today’s habit point from the widget - both on the rightmost habit point and - depending on the widget - the square on the upper left, next to the habit name.

Not supporting all displayed days for interactions is by intention, as it would be a source of accidental taps.

### 4/5 — Great app, but steep minimum requirements

*2024-01-19*

As a Apple Watch 3 owner I can’t use the watch app since it requires latest OS. Same goes for people who wanna stay below iOS 17. It’s a pity because it’s an amazing piece of software. Maybe developer will implement support for older Apple wearables. Cheers!

**Developer response:** Many thanks for letting me know! I know the feeling when something new I want to use is not supported on an older device I own. When I've started working on HabitBoard, I wanted to make sure it works on the latest and the previous versions (which now already leaves out the Watch series 3, which doesn't support watchOS 9).

However, I've since then bumped the required versions to the latest — the app had so few users and the development effort to also support previous versions simply can't be justified for that. I know this reduces the potential group of users even more, but I hope to keep support for the current versions of iOS and watchOS also with future releases.

And in case you ever buy a new watch, the HabitBoard watch app is already waiting for you :) Thanks for your kind words on the quality of the app, it makes me very happy! — Florian

### 5/5 — Accountability at its finest!

*2024-02-28*

HabitBoard has been a game-changer for me! As someone who enjoys supporting indie developers, I couldn't be happier with this app. The interface is user-friendly, and beautiful in its simplicity. The accountability features with the widgets help keep me on track.

One standout feature I appreciate is the app's commitment to privacy. Unlike many other apps, HabitBoard doesn't track unnecessary data, which enhances my overall experience and trust in using it. Kudos to the developer for creating such a fantastic app. Highly recommend!

**Developer response:** Thank you for this motivating review! It really made my day :) I'm very happy you like HabitBoard with its simplicity and commitment to privacy!

### 5/5 — Simple but powerful in what it achieves

*2023-01-05*

Where has this little app been hiding?
Simple, easy to use, just enough to make it work for my scatterbrain.
Like Florian's other software for macOS and windows (MP3TAG - it is great for making those MP3 playlists into what you hoped for way back in the day) it works as advertised
What I like: 
- not invasive
- simple to set up
- keeps my private stuff private
- small footprint and simple pricing
- got me  going right away to get 2023 off to a great start.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I wanted

*2022-10-18*

Very basic app to track whatever behaviors you want daily. Couldn’t be easier to set up and use. Well worth the small one-time purchase fee. I use it to keep track of my exercise, doing puzzles, taking prescription pills, and practicing music daily. Best feature: NO DATA MINING by the app developer. Most apps like this invade your privacy.

**Developer response:** Many thanks for the great review! Happy you like HabitBoard and that it helps you keep track of your daily habits. Glad you appreciate the privacy decision: that's one of the reasons I built the app — I don't like participating in data harvesting either.
