Besides being adorable, it's doesn't reset your streak if you lapse. Everybody needs to rest sometimes or misses, Life happens, However, Polar habits lets you pick back up and build on the momentum you've already built. Lovely product, UI is gorgeous yet minimal. Well done!
Amazing app. I was able to build a habit of drinking water everyday because it was gamified. As a guy with ADHD, this app helped me feel so much better about building habits. Thank you 🙏🏾
I have tried several habit tracking tools. One of them was great in that it was easy to use across all platforms (Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, etc.), but when I snapped my streak, it was a terrible feeling.
That is where Polar Habits makes a positive contribution to habit tracking. I have found that I continue to persist towards my goals and habits, but if I miss a day, it doesn't blow up in my face and cause unnecessary regret. I pick right back up the next day and build the track forward.
I look forward to seeing this tool evolve (i.e. maybe a mobile app, even though creating a shortcut on the home screen works fine and I haven't had to log back in once I bookmarked or placed icon on my home screen!) and to supporting the team behind it. Great software all around.
Thanks so much for the review Cameron! 🙌🏻
That terrible feeling of breaking the streak is exactly what started all this, and I'm so excited to hear you've found the app as helpful as I have over the past few months!
Been using this to track some daily habits like stretching where momentum is what counts. Glad it doesn’t use streaks which make me feel like starting over any time I miss a day. Simple UI.
I've used Polar Habits for a few weeks. I love the idea behind it, that if you mess up your habit for one day it's not the end of the world. Habit forming should not be a binary thing, win or lose. It's the overall progress that counts and that's why I like what Polar Habits is building. The overall aesthetic is very pleasing too, which is important as it makes me want to come back to use the product each day.
I'm using PolarHabits for a little over a month now. And is way more effective, than any other method I tried for building habits. Thanks for that!
And I was really happy to see a feature for habits that you want to do X times a week, cause I have some habits I'm just doing on my work days.
