How do you motivate yourself to do something you don’t want to but you HAVE to....? GAMIFY your life and reward yourself when you did the task! This to-do list app awards you with points when you complete a task. With these points you can pick a wish from your wish list IF you scored enough points doing tasks. Only then a check mark button to tick off your wish is visible. So if you really want to buy that computer game, that new dress, or go to dinner in that new restaurant? Then put that as the prize on your wish list, so that you’ve got something to look forward to. In that way, you can suppress the severe dislike and focus on what you do want. Two things to watch out for: - Don’t reward yourself before you’ve done the task. Don’t buy that dress, don’t book that dinner, don’t get that game. The moment you do that, you’ve detached the reward and the task and chances are good you’ll end up enjoying your ‘reward’ without actually finishing the task that was supposed to do. - Think realistically about how many points you give a task and how many points you assign to a wish. Give simple tasks like “empty dishwasher” little points (5 for example) and hard tasks like “paint the house” a lot of points (100 for example). 
 Do the same for wishes. Small wishes like "eat some chocolate" cost a few points (15 for example) and big wishes like “buy new tv" cost more (1500 for example).

ActionPoints turns your to-do list into a daily roguelike. Every morning starts a fresh run. Complete small real-life actions, claim XP, and climb your character from Level 1 toward the L1000 cap before the day is done. When you cash out, the Silver you banked and the Jokers you collected carry over — so every run makes the next one stronger. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Plan your day with quick Actions or repeating daily Actions - Complete Actions to claim XP and watch your run cascade upward - Climb your character through six tiers: Novice → Apprentice → Adept → Hero → Champion → Legend - Roll Standard, Bonus, and Gold reward cards — up to 2.5x XP on a Gold - Cash out at day's end and bank permanent Silver for the tier you reached - Spend Silver to collect Jokers — flat XP boosts, global multipliers, and better card odds - Level up your Jokers and drag them into a streak-gated loadout - Use AI Goals to turn big ambitions into ready-to-go Actions — and farm 3x richer cards inside Goals - Build 7 life skills on a visual profile radar (skill mastery never resets) - Speak Actions and goals with voice dictation in 13 languages - See your streak on your home screen with the Streak widget - Personalize the app with Premium themes and icons - Sign in with Apple, Google, or email EVERY DAY IS A RUN Your profile level is the score of today's run. It climbs as you complete Actions and resets to Level 1 each morning — but Silver, Jokers, skills, and your streak are permanent. A focused day can push you toward the L1000 cap; a light day still moves you forward. There's no losing — only how far you farm. COLLECT & BUILD JOKERS Jokers are collectible chips that reshape your run. Steady Hand adds flat XP, Glint Eye multiplies your whole cascade, and Bonus Whisper sweetens your card odds — and each one levels up with Silver. Drag your favorites into a loadout whose slots unlock as your streak grows, then tune your build to farm as much XP as a single day allows. CASH OUT & BANK SILVER At the end of each run, the Cash Out screen replays your day and pays out Silver based on the character tier you reached — become a Hero and you bank far more than a day spent as an Apprentice. Spend that Silver in the once-a-day shop to collect new Jokers, then dive into a fresh run. VOICE DICTATION Tap the mic on any Action title or AI Goal prompt and just talk. Live transcription with auto-punctuation in 13 languages. On iPhone, ActionPoints prefers on-device recognition first so it works offline and keeps your words on your device. Hands-free Actions while cooking, driving, or settling in for the night. HOME-SCREEN STREAK WIDGET Add the ActionPoints Streak widget to your home screen. It shows your current streak with a fire background when you've completed something today, and a frozen background when your streak is at risk. The tile flips automatically at midnight — even if the app isn't open — so you always know where you stand. AI GOALS Describe a goal like "Run a 5K", "Save money", or "Learn guitar". ActionPoints creates a practical Action plan you can start today. AI Goals respond in your language, so a Spanish-speaking user gets a Spanish plan. Tasks created inside a Goal also farm far richer reward cards — 3x the Bonus rate and 3x the Gold rate — so your big ambitions bank the most Silver. Try AI Goals, then unlock full access with Premium. YOUR APP, YOUR VIBE Premium unlocks Dark, Ocean, and Forest themes plus Royal and Space app icons. ACTIONPOINTS PREMIUM Upgrade to Premium to unlock AI Goals, Premium themes, and exclusive app icons. Monthly and yearly plans are available, with yearly marked as the best value.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: ActionPoints at Free against Incentive+'s $1.99. ActionPoints also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 15 months) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.6). Incentive+'s advantage is rating (4.2 vs 3.5) and in-app purchases (none vs 2). On review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
