But if you are looking for a simple app to track goal categories in a binary way, this is your app! 4 categories of achievements that you can mark as completed, plus the ability to leave a note for yourself. Simple and easy. The one thing I would add is the ability to make the 4 categories configurable by the user. While Create, Help, Learn, and Health make sense as default categories, I’d like to be able to change those to meet my own needs. ### 4/5 — Suggestion *2018-07-27, version 1.6* This is a really simple and cool app but I feel that helped created learned and health is not enough. There should be one for idea since ideas have worth in it as well. ### 4/5 — Elliott the developer I love your app *2018-07-23, version 1.6* Dear developer I never write reviews but I do love you app. I just downloaded it instantly fell love with it. Let me use it for a bit and get back to you on improvements. For people whom are reading this, just download it and see. It’s a beautiful experience using the app. ### 4/5 — Great app, a little expensive *2018-07-08, version 1.6* I like this app. It has a great design although the features are limited which makes question the value relative to the price paid. If there’s one thing that would make it worth five stars, it’s CSV exporting. Just three columns: date, section, note. Many apps offer a dark theme and I like that and dark is default with this, but it would also be good if there was a light theme. ### 5/5 — Great, simple app. *2018-06-30, version 1.6* With all the noise and garbage out there today, it’s refreshing to see a simple, clean, positive app that encourages us to all be better, do a bit more, and focus on what’s important. Kudos to Elliot for creating some positive change. Highly recommend. Wouldn’t mind if there were some subtle reminders too. ### 5/5 — Awesome self development app! So easy to use! *2018-06-13, version 1.5* This app is meant to help you make and reach small goals and it keeps track of it all for you. The app allows you to be in complete control of what you want to accomplish daily. Another reviewer complained bc the app didn’t give suggestions but that’s what’s so great about it! I make my own goals that I want/can do daily. As someone who uses a planner for everything, this has been really helpful. Love it! ### 5/5 — Excellently executed. *2018-05-28, version 1.5* The description says exactly what you need to know - the people who left 1-star ratings simply didn't read the description. This is a well-exceuted app, well-designed, minimalist, simple, and functional. I'm excited to see what changes are made as it is developed further. There are even other settings, and other views; if you spend one or two minutes to just play around and explore it, you will discover its secrets. (Well, not secrets, but it isn't obvious just from looking at it. You need to swipe around and whatnot.) To the developer: 1) There is a punctuation error, in the general settings: it should be "Tap a category to change its title" (no appstrophe). 2) I would actually like to see it track further back than a month, or for as long as the app has been installed, if that's possible to do without bloating it too much. I ask this simply because when I get into a depressive state - very common and tough to fight when one has clinical depression - it would be nice to look back and see that my time hasn't been wasted; I've actually accomplished things in the past. I understand the idea that you don't want someone to look back and feel like a failure if the circles are empty, but even that can be useful - seeing that positive change can always happen. 3) The color scheme is great, but… a square goes dark when it's tapped. It looks a little… depressing? Ominous? Doom-filled? I don't know, offhand, what would be better. Something less dark and consuming. Overall, bravo for creating this. I think this is the first productivity tool on the iPhone that I'll actually keep up with… ### 5/5 — Great for specific demographic *2018-05-24, version 1.5* This app isn't for everyone. Those in a reasonably functional phase of life looking to boost productivity will likely find this app insufficient. However, it may help those who temporarily find themselves stuck in near nothingness. The notes function is a great way to track successes of all degrees and can be reviewed by the user for positive reinforcement. Considering the developer's charity of choice, I would say the functionality of this app is exactly as intended and perfect for its target audience. Well done. ### 4/5 — Great motivation that could use improvements *2018-05-23, version 1.5* Simple, effective and easy to use. I wish there was a way to save the inspirational quotes that appear when you first open the app each day. They disappear and you can’t access them again. It could also be nice to be able to choose what you want to focus on daily, as opposed to feeling like a failure if you didn’t complete one of the pieces. For example, if your focus is to create everyday, we should be able to select just that rather than having to do all of them. ### 4/5 — Simple. Clean. *2018-05-23, version 1.5* I like this app, simple and straightforward. Read the instructions to find out how to edit categories. The app itself doesn’t motivate you, no notifications or anything, but provides a monitoring tool to keep track of progress towards goals. If the app icon showed which goals were completed that day, instead of showing the red icon checked, I would have given in 5 stars. ### 5/5 — Simple and Easy. *2018-05-23, version 1.5* I really love the concept and execution of the app. I’ve only used it for about a week, but I’m smitten. It’s gorgeous, simple, and easy to use after about 5 minutes of use. Great concept. Keep up the good work. ### 5/5 — Awesome app!!! *2018-05-21, version 1.4* Really cool app! That would be perfect to have a Today Widget too. And it might be really useful to be able to change category name. ### 4/5 — Almost There *2018-05-21, version 1.4* Simplicity is the beauty of this app. This is an app you might go to many times a day, so it should not be complex or cumbersome. That said, I wish the user could create more than just the 4 categories. 6 to 8 would be nice, I have a lot I am working on. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — How does it work?!? *2018-05-20, version 1.4* I can see the 2 screens, click the the 4 options, view my stats... but that’s it. I can’t write notes like in the photos, I can’t get anything to change and there’s no menu to even ask for help or look for directions. I understand this is supposed to be an unassigned accomplishment tracker that’s easy to use and all that... but they still need some sort of tutorial cause there’s not enough info here. ### 1/5 — No iCloud Sync *2018-05-20, version 1.4* In my opinion Apple should not be promoting a paid app with so little functionality. They're promoting the theme of self-help with little regard to the app itself. I like the simplicity however, and if it had basic icloud sync across my devices then I would change my review to 5 stars. But without sync, it simply does not have enough meat to be a paid app. In its current state I don't think it would even catch on as a free app even with no ads... ### 1/5 — Seriously?? *2018-05-20, version 1.4* Why are you charging people for something like this? I feel like I wasted money buying this. I’ve already deleted it and I bought it 5 minutes ago. Please don’t buy this app! You will regret it. ### 1/5 — Waste of $1.99 *2018-05-20, version 1.4* This app could be the worst waste of money in all the years I’ve been buying apps. I should have listened to the one bad review. What does this app do? You click that you’ve done something good during the day. That’s it. Don’t waste your money. ### 1/5 — Do not buy. Useless *2018-05-19, version 1.4* Worst waste of money. I thought it linked to stuff to help you learn, create and help people. Instead, you just tap and that’s it. Very dumb app. ### 2/5 — So basic it’s like nothing at all *2018-05-20, version 1.4* What even is this app? If it was free I wouldn’t complain but it literally does almost nothing. It allows you to vaguely keep track of whether you created, learned, helped, or health(ed) each day and, well, that’s about it. Not sure this serves the intended purpose and there are much more robust free options. Oh, but it doesn’t require any sort of login so I’ll give it an extra star for that. ### 3/5 — Would be an awesome app if it weren’t so broken *2022-10-20, version 1.8* I love the concept, but I’m unable to appreciate the app due to bugs. For instance, when I create a custom note and attempt to then view it by clicking the post-it note icon in the GUI, it either goes to the “Created” note tab or, if I do the same in the lifeline page for the category in question, I have to wrestle with the touch interface to drag the note into view. In spite of what the developer has said in this review section about being able to hold down the “created/learned/helped/health” category tiles to customize them, I could not do so. Instead, holding down those tile buttons brought up a menu to add a custom note. I even tried holding down the header of this custom note menu (which has one of the four categories as it’s title) and I could not make it editable. Anyway, this is a good app if you’re willing to take the categories as given. However, I wanted the parameters of my non-zero day project to be a little less abstract and more tied to specific changes I’m trying to make. Perhaps my complaints are only relevant on iOS? I am not sure. In any case, the app can’t be made to do what I desire. If you want to fit into the dev’s “box” however, it’s not a terrible set of four categories if you don’t mind how abstract tracking instances of “helped/created/learned/health” is. ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2020-05-15, version 1.8* Wish you could turn off the inspirational quotes though. They get kinda annoying after a while and slow me down ### 4/5 — Surprisingly effective *2018-10-15, version 1.7* Many’s the time I have been motivated to exercise just a little, or opt for a healthier snack, or visit my language app because I want to tap one of the little blocks in this app. “There,” I will say, “that wasn’t so hard was it?” ### 4/5 — Cool idea *2018-09-27, version 1.7* I’ll be trying it out for a while. Having to sit through quotes I don’t read every time I open the app is annoying. Add an option to remove that!? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Loved it *2025-05-06, version 1.8* Great app ### 5/5 — Great little app *2023-12-11, version 1.8* This is perfect if you’re looking for something to log your daily progress. It’s great for fans of “Atomic Habits” (by James Clear). Helpful Tip: If you long-press on the title “NoZeroDays” inside the app, you can open a settings page to change the category titles. Feature Request: I’d love to see functionality added for the “widgets” feature in iOS. Would be nice to see what I’ve done today with a glance. ### 5/5 — Simplistic, clean and great *2021-04-28, version 1.8* I can get a tracking app to see my moods and keep minute details of how long I spent painting or working out and try to figure out when I’m stressed...or I can do this and when all 4 categories are full I’m less stressed and happier anyway. Easy to manage, they really are the only categories that matter, I can keep notes with details if I want. It’s great. ### 5/5 — Love the clean, effective design *2019-07-31, version 1.8* I never write reviews but love how this app does one thing really well, which is to get you to be consistent on achieving four goals everyday. The app is beautifully designed and simple to use. The inspirational quotes that appear randomly is also a great touch. ### 5/5 — Real results. It may seem simple but it’s ingenious. Helps combat depression. *2019-05-21, version 1.8* On a whim I got this app, as I am always seeking apps to help me stay positive and mind my well being and self care; I have severe anxiety, and depression, etc. and a tendency to totally downplay my accomplishments. I also neglect taking care of myself as far as treating myself good and being positive. Apps I’ve tried never really hit a chord with me. Yeah some are like virtual cheerleaders and offer support but rarely do they incorporate reinforcing positive habits. Enter NoZeroDays. It right away got me not just tapping the categories of what I did, but I was able to make notes. By day 3 I looked at what I input so far; it wasn’t a lot, but it made me feel good about the little things I did. So instead of my usual gloomy reflection and outlook, I for once felt like I was in the right direction. So far It’s been over a week and some days were positives, some weren’t, but.. I actually have a tangible thing to help me realize the positives of life! That’s freakin amazing. No app ever helped like this. Just one thing to note to the devs; I love the UI, it’s from an interactive standpoint very effective. But really I think there should be an icon or some other obvious element that shows the user the app options. Also, optional push notification integration would be nice! Otherwise great job. And I commend your commitment to aiding suicide prevention. I had no qualms paying for this app. Finally, to the 1 star review whiners- the description of the app clearly states its purpose, intent, and capabilities. Clearly your capabilities of reading comprehension are null. And your expectations of what apps do for you are pretty selfish. Try being a developer for a day. ### 5/5 — Excellent daily accountability app! *2018-08-30, version 1.7* Once I read the reviews & learned how to customize each of the 4 categories to my liking, I quickly saw the value of this app. It’s simple enough & effective enough for me to highly recommend this to all my fellow redditors who’ve seen the original ‘no zero days’ post from a few years ago. To the developer, well done mate! I appreciate the simple accountability that you’ve given us with this app :) Thank you!! ### 5/5 — The app I didn’t know I needed *2018-08-24, version 1.7* If you struggle with health issues, mental illness, or low self esteem this is the app for you. It’s not the kind of app that motivates you to do stuff by making you feel bad when you don’t do it. Instead it makes you reflect and realize that your day wasn’t a waste, today had value, and you have done valuable things. All the low reviews I’ve read seem to be people looking for a more typical “don’t break the chain” type app. That’s not what this is, and that’s why I find it so useful. ### 5/5 — So simple but effective *2018-08-24, version 1.7* This is a great app, a simple way to track and monitor your personal goals. A version for Apple watch would be amazing for on the go tracking. ### 5/5 — Love 💗 *2018-08-01, version 1.6* Just reading the reviews and all of your responses makes me smile. I can tell you take to heart all comments in each review. This is a wonderful thing you’re doing. The interaction between you and reviewers is heartwarming and refreshing. Suicide Prevention is near and dear to me. Knowing that your app is helping reach out simply by existing.... it warms heart and soul. You have already made a hugely positive impact on me! Thank you so much for this wonderfully refreshing app. I love it! ### 5/5 — Amazing App *2018-07-30, version 1.6* This app does exactly what it says it does. It’s incredibly clean and aesthetically pleasing. Well-designed and really thoughtful. Kudos to the dev for making it free as well! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
