Perfect for keeping accountable with my friends

I love being able to send emojis back and forth with my friends.. or give them a poke if needed

It’s fun

It’s fun to keep track of my progress with encouragement from my friends.. and to nudge them along the way as well:)

Exactly What is Missing From App Store Today

I feel like all apps today have become so complicated and cluttered with gamification and freemium features that it’s like learning a new piece of software to get set up on them. Not this one.

This is simple, straightforward, just like the golden days of the App Store when people made things to be truly useful and helpful. Not to gamify you into a $9.99 monthly subscription.

I can attest after having used the app for over a month that it works amazing. Extremely lightweight (no slow loading or anything, very responsive) and no complicated UI to learn.

It's the perfect way to get accountability for any goals you're working on, and support friends or loved ones to their goals. When you recommend a friend / loved one to download, you don't have to worry they're going to need a month to learn how to use it.

Excellent app! 🙌🙌
