Polar Habits

Momentum is the key — not streaks! Hear that @rajiv_ayyangar? 😜

Happy New Year! 🎉 I hope you have big ambitions for 2024. I wish you all the success in the new year, and at the same time, I encourage you to accept the daily ups and downs as part of the process towards long-term, lasting change. After years of frustration with habit streaks and feeling demotivated to bounce back from missing workouts, meditation, reading, etc, I wanted a better way to track habits. That’s what Polar Habits is all about. It’s a simple, guilt-free habit tracker with a unique momentum system that won’t make you feel like a failure for missing a day. Instead, it encourages you to bounce back to a habit you might otherwise abandon. I hope you’ll try it, and let me know what you think! 🤗

Congrats @merott ! Congratulations on the launch! I love this idea. I too have encountered a lot of frustration with the habits trackers that consider that we function as machines while we are only humans, sometimes demotivated, sometimes sick, sometimes dizzy, sometimes weak.. I had noted this idea in my long list of applications to do one day, but I think I will be able to scratch it ☺️. The app look more powerful with phases that I had in mind and do the job perfectly. I think that in the ideas that will make the application effective, we must focus on the different possibilities of input and or recall. For example, @bonvisions talks about a bar menu, it's a very good idea! There is also surely something to do with Raycast for quick input, with slack and Apple reminder for input reminder notifications etc. Good luck for this project that speaks to me a lot!
