Serious question..do those factors affect your buying decision?
It is more of a sub conscious thing, over a large sample it might well cost you a few sales.
Love the handwriting font, calendar view, and streak badges!
I wish I could enter a value along with a tick.. to record how much I did something (say to track how much I slept).

We made a decision to go with a handwritten font for that reason. It is gratifying to cross items off a list, putting pen to paper, so we tried to mimic that with the font and swipe action. That said, we totally understand wanting to use a sans serif. Helvetica and other options may be in a future release.
I think the suggestion was to use the sans-serif for the heading. This makes sense because you're not writing "Today" — that's part of the interface. Same as you're not writing "May 2012" on the calendar.
The large, handwriting typeface works well for the list items as it makes you focus on it, but the "Today" heading should be different if only to clearly separate the middle section as your "list". Overall terrific design though.
Minor thing: The iPhone on the site with the app shown on the screen - the low battery percentage, the alarm icon, the odd time and the AT&T icon are all kind of distracting to me.

Where did you guys meet? Online? Offline?
There are enough comment on here, so I'm going to give some critiques. I think you should change the calendar mockup. From the Xs on the calendar, I was reminded of Jerry Seinfeld's: "Don't break the chain"[0], an anecedote about how making a chain of Xs on a calendar is the best way to form a productive habit. Someone else mentioned it in the comments as well. However, the chain on the calendar is broken! Those user…
I know it would work on me.
I will try this app now!
Very similar to the first app I released for iOS called ChainCal ( http://chaincalapp.com ). That said, competition is healthy and important to keeping an ecosystem moving. Well done execution on Habit List. ChainCal has a new version pending review right now for those interested in comparing the two approaches.
