This is really cool. I don’t think I have diagnosable ADHD, but I have noticed that gamification features like “streaks” often cause more problems in building habits than helping them. My daughter, who is diagnosed with severe ADHD, eventually had to “give up” some of the streak based apps like Duolingo because they are, imho, preying on our desire to complete “streaks” only to increase in-app activity for their own…
I've been working on a minimalist daily habit tracker that I designed for counting calories as part of my own weight loss journey. It's called Quick Calories. The PWA is free, it doesn't require an account, has no advertising, and works offline. Link: [ https://calories.joeldare.com ]
Thank you for sharing - especially with the green flag of "no account required"! I wanted to go habit tracing in a minimalist way, and ended up using checkboxes in Obsidian daily notes (and take them anyway, previously in Evernote) and plugins (there are a few, I use a combination of https://github.com/pyrochlore/obsidian-tracker and https://github.com/hedonihilist/obsidian-habit-calendar ).
I'm always up late and I'd like to get a last minute habit checked off before I go to bed, but so many tools move to the next day at midnight. I ended up building my own minimal chore tracker[1] because I couldn't find any that aligned to that schedule. I really think everyone has slightly different needs and chore/habit trackers make a great minimal programming+design project. [1] https://alexsci.com/blog/personal-a…
Looks good. How do you "done" past days? Sometimes I don't actually miss the habit but not have the time to open screen. I also created similar habit tracker app for mobile https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.yedev.habi... The unique thing is that I use google drive to sync habits
love the UI. I made habit tracker visualizer based on Apple Reminders https://public.me/anton/daily
I just want to put out Loop Habit Tracker ( https://github.com/iSoron/uhabits ). Its open source, ad free and has the option to start the day at 3 am. I am very happy with this solution.
This seems quite broken on iPhone (iPhone 12, iOS 17, Safari browser). Trying to add a task ends up blowing the model up too big and it’s impossible to scroll to or even see the button to add the task.
