1. [R6] Strides 3/5 · US Good app but..: Good app but having to pay just to have more than three things is greedy
2. [R7] Strides 2/5 · US in app purchases: there are in app purchases that basically limit everything
3. [R9] Strides 3/5 · US Useless for free users: **SUMMARY** This is a great app, but the premium is way too expensive, and without it you’re only able to use one tracker. If you don’t feel like dishing out $80 to use this app properly, don’t bother downloading it. **FULL REVIEW** This is a brilliant app, and I really like all the options and customizations available. One of the best habit trackers I’ve come across. How
4. [R12] Strides 3/5 · US Seems great but: You can only track 2 things for free. Just 2. I don't want to have to pay to have only 3 things to track.
5. [R4] Strides 1/5 · US What a waste: I bought the paid version so I could try to really get into goal making. But it’s such a waste of money. This app is more annoying than anything, just constant reminders than at actual times that are constructive. I sincerely regret having bought the paid version of this app. I would have been better off had I known, then I just wouldn’t have downloaded in the first place. Not a fan.
6. [R19] Strides 1/5 · US Not good: To have to pay $39 for this app and it doesn’t really remind you because I set a specific reminder as specific time and it didn’t remind me and then it just says in one big thing you have 21 things to do and it’s like OK yeah I’m glad that you’re telling me. I have 21 things to do but but half of the list was supposed to be for a later timeframe so why do I have 21 things that I supposed
7. [R36] Strides 3/5 · GB Decent App: I liked this and the free of charge version got me off to a solid start. I would have subscribed/purchased if the price was lower but it doesn’t represent value to me at the offered price and I found an alternative that was more realistically priced and equally good. Thank you for the leg up, Strides Team and I wish you well.
8. [R10] Strides 1/5 · US Won’t open: Just downloaded app on iPad Pro. When I try to open, app immediately freezes and quits. No way to contact support without having app open.
9. [R13] Strides 2/5 · US Streaks don’t transfer to new devices: Been using this app for years and when I got a new iPhone, all my history is gone, even when I “synced” my trackers. Really disappointed 😭.
10. [R15] Strides 3/5 · US Powerful tracker; waiting for key bug fix: Powerful and flexible habit tracker with great templates and easy customization. Supports tracking "do" and "don't" habits. There is however a critical defect where weekly "don't" habits (eg don't drink more than 3 alcoholic drinks) are incorrectly marked as a "Miss" even though the limit of 3 has not been exceeded. Lots of my habits are weekly so this is
11. [R1] Strides 2/5 · US Fine for daily goals but that’s it: It’s fine, not great, for getting yourself to hit daily goals. But for anything else it’s awful. If you only want to do something a few times a week, find another app. This one is clearly not designed for that
12. [R31] Strides 2/5 · US It’s ok?: This app is fine if your main focus is habits you do daily. Even if you set up something to be due 2 or 3 times a week, or just on weekends for example, the app asks you to track it daily and there’s no satisfaction in hitting your goal but not getting the “box checked” every day. Also- the project tracker is pretty tough to use. You’d think if you check off all the items for a milestone
13. [R18] Strides 3/5 · US Good but UI & UX IS OUTDATED: Good app does what you need, but it hasn’t changed fundamentally in the way it looks or functions since its inception, like 12 years ago. If the developer can revamp its look, and function, I really think this app has the potential to be the gold standard in its respective category.
14. [R24] Strides 3/5 · US Ugh Idk: Im trying the free trial and would normally find this sort if thing intuitive but I'm already having frustrating issues. These two are why I won't buy: 1) you can set an action to be done by a date but milestones are necessary?? What if I just want to finish an educational course by the end of March with no milestone? If you can, it's not intuitive. 2) you can track the number of someth
15. [R27] Strides 3/5 · GB Its ok just overly complicated: Its decent in most parts and downloaded it based on the recommendation from 6 minute diary. Ive paid for the year. But I simply just want to log my 2 litre water intake. I dont want to sync it with my watch, i dont want to log how many times a day. I just want to log in ml how much I’ve drunk. But it’s just not logical to setup that way. When setting up a manual g
16. [R30] Strides 3/5 · GB Feeling good: The whole vibe about the app is feeling good, a few small gremlins like adding a tag seems to fight you, but my biggest gripe would be the text size, had my eyes checked and they tell me just on the edge of needing reading glasses but not yet, but the text in this app is small and thin font not good if your doing this half a sleep
17. [R53] Habit Tracker 3/5 · US Please give font size options: The app is beautiful. Love the customization. I got a lifetime subscription and am happy to not have to pay annually. Could you please consider adding the ability to increase the font size? It would be perfect then.
18. [R54] Habit Tracker 1/5 · US This app sucks: It’s not intuitive.
19. [R58] Habit Tracker 5/5 · US Love this app so much!: The only money you have to spend is a one-time payment of a pretty reasonable amount, and you unlock all of their features for life, unlike most other habit tracker apps. I love the aesthetic of the app, and how many options it gives you for managing your habits, while still having a very streamlined design. I’ve been using it for years, and seeing the little “🔥 700 days” o
20. [R60] Habit Tracker 5/5 · US Best habit tracking app I’ve used: Love the customization this app allows, and the widget to keep track of my daily progress from the Home Screen. Thank you!
21. [R66] Streaks 4/5 · US Wishing for more dots per page: Streaks is awesome. I love the Apple Watch aspect. I wish I could fit more dots per page, like 3 columns, 4 rows, as I prefer to fit my whole day on a single page
22. [R67] Streaks 3/5 · US Suggested: Still figuring it out. Love all the options to customize colors and stuff with categories. I wish there was a way to either select a default view like always show my monthly calendar, I wish there was a way to put that on a widget. I wish there was a way to limit what screens you toggle through when you’re clicking a task, and I wish there was more of like a zoomed out dashboard view. I
23. [R68] Streaks 2/5 · US Critical missing feature: This is a great app but with a critical missing feature. It lets you create streaks where you have a goal of “N per week.” This way you don’t have to do the task every day. However, you cannot see which days you completed that task. I’ll often wonder, did I already mark that task completed today? Or was it yesterday? The frustrating part is that there is even a calendar v
24. [R69] Streaks 4/5 · US PrettyGood: So far I like it. Wish Tasks weren’t auto ALL CAPS. Not easy on the eyes & kinda ANGRY.
25. [R79] Do Habits 1/5 · US Slow, Glitchy App: This app was one of the best habit trackers, but now is just glitchy and slow. It frequently has UI lag and doesn’t respond to user input. And worst of all, I can’t export my data to move to another app because it hangs on the CSV export. I’ve emailed support twice and received no response. I decided to not renew this year. Once a great app, now slow and poorly supported. Recomm
26. [R80] Do Habits 5/5 · US Good: So far it’s perfect
27. [R81] Do Habits 3/5 · US Lags terribly: I’ve been using this app for years and it’s been helping me keep good habits- I have a streak that’s 47 months long. But it’s been really laggy and crashes a lot lately. It’s disappointing. I’d rather not move to another app but I’m starting to feel like I’m being forced to.
28. [R82] Do Habits 1/5 · US Does not work anymore at all and just hangs: Since some of the newer updates, for whatever reason the app just doesn’t load anything at all and doesn’t allow me to click or do anything. My iphone is one of the newer models so it’s not an update thing.
29. [R93] Grit 1/5 · US Not very good: I would actually give it a 3 but just so you can see I’m showing it as a 5. You need to get the premium to edit habits (even the ones they start you out with) and it feels like there’s pressure to complete everything. The next day, if you didn’t completed something the day before it adds a minus to your habit and it’s like you have to earn it back. It also needs more work and update
30. [R94] Grit 5/5 · US 5 stars: Extremely easy to navigate through
31. [R95] Grit 3/5 · US 3 stars and this why: I downloaded and followed procedure to make account I just think it’s too limited on your goals. I shouldn’t be limited to only 1 choice when it could be any and all or a multitude of them collectively: deleting app. But it’s a good attempt. Cheers
32. [R96] Grit 1/5 · US DO NOT GET THE FREE TRIAL: They renew it before the week is up and buy the most expensive version of it so you’re stuck with it a whole year! Woke up the morning I subscribed to it to turn it off because it’s not a very good app and they renewed me for a whole year!
33. [R107] Habit-Bull 1/5 · US Not Supported Anymore?: The tracker itself is good and helpful, but the app is starting to have the weird bugs that are tells for a lack of developer support. For instance, you can not delete or deactivate habits. If you click on the buttons, a dialogue box seems to open at the top of the screen. But attempting to scroll up to the box removes it. That seems small but it’s actually breaks the app
34. [R108] Habit-Bull 5/5 · US Used it for years: Best habit tracker out there.
35. [R109] Habit-Bull 3/5 · US Needs More Flexibility: It’s frustrating that under the “Number of Days Per Period” the only periodicity option is “Weekly.” This should be a drop-down menu allowing the choice between Weekly or Monthly.
36. [R110] Habit-Bull 1/5 · US Can’t delete success habit: I have used HabitBull for at least 3 to 4 years the new version has a flaw: it won’t let me delete habits that is successful.
37. [R16] Strides 1/5 · US The free version isn’t useful: The free version is not useful, you only can add 3 goals.
38. [R34] Strides 1/5 · US Extremely Limited: You get three habits for free on the free version. Heads up.
39. [R48] Strides 3/5 · GB Lost all data??!: I’ve had this app on my phone forever and used it very regularly. Recently, I deleted it, not sure if I deleted it from my home screen only or from my library. But anyway, when I open the app back up again all my data has disappeared. I can’t see where to login to retrieve my previous data.. is this possible? Normally, when I delete an app from my phone and then reinstall it all
40. [R64] Habit Tracker 5/5 · US GREAT APP! GET IT!: I got a one time lifetime purchase for the pro and I am super grateful! I love this habit app so far! It is very easy to use and I love the encouragement it gives me when I complete each task!🍕🎮😊🎉🎊👍🏻
41. [R75] Streaks 5/5 · US Insanely Generous: I never write reviews for apps but I gotta appreciate how this is the one app that doesn’t need a subscription every month. No idea why that was ever normalized. On top of this they make it so easy to use and this app has genuinely improved my life.
42. [R78] Streaks 5/5 · US Best habit app worth every cent: I use this to keep track of all my habits. Great and very useful app. Worth the one time fee easily!
43. [R83] Do Habits 5/5 · US cleanest design, nothing superfluous: this is the best habit tracking app for ios and apple watch. it’s worth the subscription cost immediately if you want a minimal design with maximal functionality (unit tracking, customizable reminders + schedule) for tracking your habits. i’ve tried many other apps and nothing is as simple and beautiful without missing features.
