### 3/5 — Great little app for tracking habits , routines, …

*2026-09-09, version 4.0.9*

….****With recent updates, the app is less user friendly when manual adjustments must be input, such as when some activities fail to sync over properly, like I have a daily goal of 3000 steps, and it doesn’t pick up from the Health app as it should, and most days it has to be manually input, yet the app no longer allows manual clearance of the task.  It should allow a completion check in some way.  This was removed with the update.
******

reminding you, with great journaling prompts that focus your notes about key issues or affirmation.  It is very user friendly and  handy—integrates with my Apple Watch too.

### 3/5 — Bring back the old UI

*2026-08-21, version 4.0.9*

The new update makes it so hard to see when you’ve completed habits in the monthly activity view. You removed the days and dates! And the calendar is sideways which does feel intuitive at all. There’s no more “time of day” groupings which makes these habits less impactful and less full to knock off milestones throughout the day. Also getting details isn’t intuitive at all. Previously you just clicked into it now you have to slide and select. Please reconsider this update

### 3/5 — Please bring back to old  UX!

*2026-08-14, version 4.0.8*

I’ve been using your app for several years and I love it. I’m so disappointed by the new interface. What used to feel like a very calming natural UX feels very stiff and rigid now.  The red and black feels very intense and selecting and checking off habits in a row feels buggy and slow. 

I used to love how I could see the moods assigned to the days that have already been completed that week. Also, now when I assign moods to a journal entry, the entry options are so large, but it’s challenging to select multiple which I used to enjoy doing. I think what you’ve built is awesome and hope that some of the features from the old version come back!  As it is right now, I will most likely be switching to a different app.

### 3/5 — Hi

*2026-05-13, version 3.15.1*

My notifications haven’t popped up

### 3/5 — Ok

*2026-05-11, version 3.15.1*

Good but very expensive I need a free one low-key

### 4/5 — Pretty good (READ)

*2025-07-09, version 3.14.4*

The app it’s self is awesome and pretty functioning. However as always there is a paywall for premium stuff but it’s got enough stuff you don’t really need premium. Even if you do buy premium it’s only like 25 dollars a YEAR. I use it everyday and I think it’s pretty good, just needs a few featured unrestricted by a paywall.

### 3/5 — Un engaging, low functionality

*2025-07-07, version 3.14.4*

It’s really difficult to check off a habit if you have multiple because you have to scroll down to the very bottom to check it off after clicking on the habit. They have to much detail Thats not as frequently used before the simple check mark to complete a habit. The lack of frequency focalization makes it overall less functional and engaging. Therefore tangerine is not appealing to me.

### 4/5 — Bugs when I select different days

*2025-06-20, version 3.14.4*

Everything is good so far using this app except one thing: it jumps around the pages when i select different days to look back at the past tasks. It keeps jumps back to today's tasks when I still wanna stay on the same past day and look at different categories like skipped/completed/to do.

### 2/5 — Annoying

*2025-04-18, version 3.14.4*

The app is alright but crashes a lot and most notifications I set don’t even go off and (in my personal preference) I would prefer if there was an option to have a notification tone. Another thing is it is a little annoying when you are scrolling through your agenda for a different day and it suddenly switches you to the today tab. I also spent a lot on this app while other apps are 10 times cheaper for better quality, less hassle, and better deals. Goes to show that spending more money on something doesn’t guarantee better quality.

### 3/5 — Good, Not Great

*2025-04-08, version 3.14.4*

I like the concept, especially the mood journaling and the emotional element. However, the actual functionality of the app has become frustrating. Here are a few observations after using the app almost daily for several months:

- It crashes a lot (not every day, but multiple times a week)

- It’s frustrating to edit habits for past days (or past midnight for “today” if you’re a night owl like me) bc of the way it constantly skips to the current day without warning 

- I wish there was a way to update a habit (frequency, timing, etc.), but as it is rn, you have to archive the current habit and create a whole new one 

- The history function is basically useless…frustrating after subscribing to the paid version thinking there would be some kind of data or analytical component 

Again, great concept, but actual execution leaves a lot to be desired, especially for a paid subscription. I will be looking for a new solution.

### 3/5 — Kinda good but has room for improvement

*2025-03-22, version 3.14.4*

The app is alright but crashes a lot and (in my personal preference) I would prefer if there was an option to have a notification tone. Another thing is it is a little annoying when you are scrolling through your agenda for a different day and it suddenly switches you to the today tab.

### 5/5 — The app is near perfect.

*2025-03-03, version 3.14.4*

Everything is perfect in the app especially giving me very helpful access in the free version. One thing that could make the app perfect is if the developers could add a Task todo feature which isn’t a habit. Like I have to use another app for my todo lists everyday so if it is integrated in the app, this would be my most used app on my phone.

### 5/5 — Satisfied relentlessly

*2025-02-24, version 3.14.4*

I’m
 impressed

### 4/5 — Good so far, no FAQs

*2025-02-19, version 3.14.4*

Really good app, I just can’t find any instruction in the app after onboarding. What’s the different between skipping and missing habits? I can’t find any FAQs and I don’t want to have to email Support

### 5/5 — Soooo good u am 13 and it helped lots

### 1/5 — Habits is too basic

*2026-08-25, version 4.0.9*

I find this app and using it from last 2 weeks. But, I find it very basic and not logic wise correct.

### 1/5 — Why did you remove the ability to have morning, afternoon and evening habits?

*2026-08-05, version 4.0.0*

Not a fan of the new update :( it just feels like a to do list now instead of a routine

### 1/5 — Do not purchase

*2026-07-07, version 3.15.1*

Poor syncing with Apple watch and data tracking.

### 1/5 — Decent

*2026-03-27, version 3.15.1*

Interesting app, but when I see a sub, I ask myself if I’m willing to pay over a 13 month period. Cuz if I cared enough to sub the 1st year, I’d likely want to continue. Here, that would be $60. Result: hard pass.

### 1/5 — Too much paid items

*2025-09-21, version 3.15.1*

In tangerine you need a lot of money for subscriptions.
DO NOT BUY UNLESS YOU WANT TO WASTE MONEY

### 1/5 — Hehe

*2025-01-21, version 3.14.4*

AhHhhHhHhHhHhHhHhhHhHh

### 1/5 — Tangerine

*2024-08-19, version 3.13.1*

Don’t like it

### 1/5 — Why

*2024-03-09, version 3.13.1*

I got this and it was good I made my first reminder but then it only let me make one I wanna Ted at least five :(

### 1/5 — Can't get back into my account

*2024-02-13, version 3.13.1*

I was enjoying the app until yesterday. It signed me out and now doesn't recognize my email. I have reached out via email and am still waiting to hear back. Maybe a review will spark a response.  I will update my rating if this gets resolved.

### 1/5 — Enquête

I don’t know why I love this app so much. It’s super duper aesthetic easy to work and very, very useful.. you don’t have to pay and it helps me with my routine every single day the app icon is also superb. I love how you can put in something every day make a journal entry or just. Explain how you feel I love that you can create habit so that a cute message pops up on your screen and it just makes me feel so relaxed and the app has a very simple layout so it’s quite easy to just go in and make your own habit as I said before it’s so so preppy and aesthetic and the layout was just gorgeous I love it.
