Woah

This app is literally the best app for self improvement imo. Can’t wait for future updates!

Missing a Feature

Love this app!

The reason for the lack of a star is because I’m still waiting for a customizability feature. This feature in particular is the ability to add GIFs, videos, or moving banners to the tasks, tags, stats, achievements, store items, and profile icons.

I want to customize my profile to the fullest extent that could be possible, and to achieve my vision, this feature would need to be added. I constantly check the updates page to see if the requested update has arrived, but alas, I’m still waiting. I would have an even bigger reason to use this app if this feature request was added soon.

No widgets

This is a cool idea…but unfortunately, this app is pointless for me because there are no widgets. I don’t understand it when productivity apps that are specifically geared toward people with ADHD don’t have a widget option. ADHDers commonly struggle with object permanence - meaning "out of sight, out of mind". If I don't have widgets on my Home Screen that allow me to engage with an app, it's like it doesn't exist. Hopefully the developers will consider adding a widget option in the future! I’m usually willing to pay for that feature - depending on the price, of course.

Response from developer

Hello! Thank you so much for your feedback and patience. We have some great news: Widgets have officially been released in version 1.8.0 on June 28th!​ ulives is an app still in its active development stage, and we are dedicated to its growth. We maintain a transparent Roadmap that outlines our short- and medium-term plans—in fact, widgets have been a key part of that plan for quite some time. We would love for you to try out the new widgets and see how they work for you. If you have any further suggestions or run into any issues, please feel free to submit feedback directly through the in-app feedback system. Thank you for helping us make ulives better!

The Most Customizable Gamification System

I adore this app. Everything is customizable, attributes, skills, achievements that auto complete, rewards. It has an amazing item system where you can make custom items with all sort of effects like loot boxes, crafting, or even running a shortcut.

There are many options for tasks so you can use it for habits, projects, subtasks, counting things, and even logging a journal when you complete one. It has 3 focus modes that you can customize how each one rewards you based on what focus task you’re doing. It has pomodoro, a stopwatch, and countdown.

It takes a bit of creativity and effort to get the most out of this app, but you can create any kind of gamification system you want with it.

The developer seems to be updating quite regularly with awesome improvements and features. I’m really excited for the next major release that add widgets.

The only thing I’m really waiting for is more shortcut integration so I can control ulives from the shortcuts too. I think it could be really powerful and used in so many ways.
