TOP INSIGHTS

A weekly roundup of Grit: Daily Habit Tracker's key feedback

1

Limited Free Habits

A significant number of users, approximately 30%, are frustrated by the app's limitation of tracking only up to three habits on the free plan, which they feel is too restrictive and misleading for a 'free' app.

The app only allows tracking of three habits before requiring payment, which is misleading for a free app.

2

Subscription Issues

Around 15% of users have reported issues with subscription charges, including unexpected fees and problems accessing premium features after purchase, leading to dissatisfaction and distrust.

I was charged more than the advertised price for the lifetime membership.

3

Widget Functionality

Approximately 10% of users have expressed concerns about the app's widgets not functioning as expected, particularly in displaying upcoming tasks, which affects their user experience.

The widgets don't show the times of upcoming tasks, which is frustrating.

4

Data Management Concerns

About 5% of users are concerned with data management, such as losing habit history upon archiving or inability to export notes, which impacts their ability to track progress effectively.

Restoring an archived habit results in losing all its history, which defeats the purpose of archiving.

Major Highlights of the Week

Limited Free Habits
The app restricts users to tracking only three habits on the free plan, which many find insufficient for effective habit tracking. This limitation is perceived as a barrier to entry, leading to dissatisfaction with the app's freemium model.
I can only track up to 3 daily habits on the free plan.
Subscription Confusion
Users experience confusion and frustration with subscription settings, including difficulty locating them and unexpected charges. This lack of clarity in subscription management leads to negative perceptions of the app's billing practices.
I looked for five minutes and couldn’t find the subscription settings in the app.
Widget Functionality Issues
Some users report that the app's widgets do not function as expected, particularly in displaying upcoming task times. This issue diminishes the app's utility for users who rely on widgets for quick access to their habit tracking.
I cannot seem to be able to see the times of upcoming tasks in the widget.
Data Loss on Archiving
Restoring archived habits results in the loss of historical data, which undermines the purpose of archiving and frustrates users who value their progress records. This data management flaw impacts user trust and satisfaction.
When you archive a habit and restore it, you lose all your history.
Step Tracking Inaccuracy
The app's step tracking feature does not accurately reflect users' activity due to a fixed start time, leading to discrepancies with Apple Health data. This inaccuracy affects users' ability to maintain streaks and track progress accurately.
My steps aren’t accurate because the app doesn’t start counting steps until 4 am.
Lack of One-Time Tasks
The app lacks support for non-repeatable, one-time tasks, limiting its functionality as a comprehensive task management tool. Users express a desire for this feature to consolidate all their to-do items within the app.
It would be incredibly useful to have the ability to add one-off tasks.
