### 2/5 — Nice but…

*2026-08-16, version 3.35*

It only allows you to add one habit before asking for a subscription…

### 2/5 — Super bummer only one habit

*2026-08-09, version 3.35*

Very cool concept of an app. Definitely superior to other apps. Biggest downfall you only get one habit for free! And it costs a premium membership to get more. Such a bummer because you can’t really test the app without paying. Hope they change it in the future honestly

### 5/5 — Get habits

*2026-07-31, version 3.35*

### 5/5 — Efficace

*2026-07-29, version 3.35*

*2026-07-02, version 3.34*

Keeps me on the right track with God!

### 4/5 — Läuft aber Abo

*2026-07-01*

Kritik: Kostenlos ist nur eine Gewohnheit dieses Abo Pay Ding gefällt mir halt einfach nicht ich würde 5€ oder auch 7,99€ einmalig zahlen wenn ich sie dann unbeschränkt nutzen könnte  

Lob: Die App ist schon gut, gerade dass man solche Monumente bekommt wenn man dran bleibt (gamification) macht schon Spaß. Natürlich die App kann helfen aber egal was du machen willst du musst es wolle

### 4/5 — Good

*2026-07-01, version 3.34*

It’s good. Wish they didn’t try to market the subscription but hey what are you gonna do
