### 2/5 — Great, right up until…

*2026-08-14*

I have been using this app for a couple months, and was enjoying it a lot. Until one day, when I finally finished the Journaling IV skill. As soon as I checked off the very last entry, the app COMPLETELY crapped the bed and stopped working. My tasks page wouldn’t load, EVER, and I got no rewards for completing Journaling IV and didn’t unlock the next skill on the tree. I tried restarting my phone, but that didn’t help. I tried logging out of my account, but the app wouldn’t let me log back in again. There are some serious, app-breaking bugs that need to be fixed. If it weren’t for that, my rating would have been 5 stars.

### 5/5 — A great way to hack your dopamine addiction for personal growth

*2026-06-30, version 1.1.9*

I love video games, and this app has been really effective at keeping me growing and developing good habits for a month now.

### 1/5 — You can't choose your own 'skills'

*2026-06-02, version 1.1.9*

It picks your items for you and tries to force you to do random things like meditate for five days in a row with no option to delete, replace, or edit that...

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-05-28, version 1.1.9*

Cool, has helped me a lot, though this was purely for an achievement in game this review

### 5/5 — Skilltree

*2026-04-13, version 1.1.9*

### 5/5 — It’s definitely worth the download!!

*2026-04-03, version 1.1.9*

It made me get my bad habits out of the way in a really fun way!!!

### 5/5 — Very cool

*2026-04-01, version 1.1.9*

Very basic but very cool. Loving it.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-03-31*

I absolutely LOVE this app. I love that it starts you super small and grows more and more the more successful you are at completing skills. The only issue I’m seeing is that seeing and or getting premium does not work, it won’t show a price and won’t let you purchase it. Otherwise this is the best goals/habits app I’ve ever tried. Even the free version is great.

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2025-12-10, version 1.1.9*

Love this app! I just wish that the creator would update it more…

### 5/5 — Skilltree

*2025-10-17, version 1.1.9*
