I absolutely love this app. It has taken me so long to find an app where the free features are enough for what I need. I do however find some frustration with the streak aspect. I have been using the app for nearly a week and have checked something off every day but my streak has not gone above 1. I have even completed multiple tasks in a day and it does nothing. I am confused by this feature and would like the added accomplishment of having this keep track of my progress. Any advice or answers to my issues?
First of all, the push notifications are out of hand. I got 5 consecutive push notifications, all saying the same thing. I don’t know if this is intentional design for those with ADHD who maybe want the increase in urgency, but I found the repetition to be really annoying (the *same* notification popping up four more times after I’ve dismissed the first is poor design. I’m easily distracted and my phone going off like there’s an emergency because my virtual pet misses me is counterproductive for a productivity app). Relies heavily on AI. Requires too much input. I have ADHD—I am not organized. This expects me to be organized enough to put all of my tasks into the app. I would have been more generous and not given it one star but the last time I opened the app it was downright useless. Not sure if it crashed or what the problem was, but I couldn’t click on *anything*, rendering the whole app useless.
I’ve been using the app for a couple of days now. It’s adorable, I like the color scheme, and I LOVE the ability to brain dump and have it organize my tasks for me. However, I wish the tasks had their own page and I could see it front and center. Having to scroll down and find my tasks didn’t helpful for my adhd. Otherwise, 4 stars and I can’t wait to see how the app progresses.
