Not even close to the competitors
Problems that exist with this app:
1) You can ONLY set a schedule to be assigned a specific day of the week. Real life doesnt work like that. I dont commit to working out every Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday. I just make a goal of "Im going to workout a minimum of 60 minutes, four days a week." I cant set that kind of goal on this app. Check out the apps like Habit Tracker and Productivity: you can determine how many times a day you should do something (like take vitamins) or how many times a week or month you want to do something. The flexibility for scheduling is endless.
2) No options for allowing bi-weekly or monthly habits. There are certain things I have to force myself to do (like check in with certain family members on the phone) but only need to do it once or twice a month. There is no option to do that.
3) The app icon isnt very streamlined/visually pleasing. Look at the icons for Productive, Done, Momentum, Habit List, Habitat: much nicer. I realize Im just nit-picking here, but even the opening screen of the app is nicer than the actual icon itself.
4) No Apple Watch integration.
5) The overall ease of using the app is okay. Not very intuitive and the calendar views (if thats what you could even call it) arent very helpful at all. Looking at a trail of dots isnt going to help me establish trends. A monthly view (or at least an option to switch to that view) would be MUCH nicer. Then you can look at trends and recognize that maybe you eat more sweets the days you worked nightshift, or maybe you tend to miss workouts on the days after you didnt meet your goals for minimum hours of sleep.
Im hoping either this app, or Habit List, Habit Streaks, Done, Productivity, Momentum or Habitat can figure out a way to put all the things a user wants into one app so I can stop waiting and start tracking. Ill just hold onto all these apps and watch for updates until someone gets it right.
