Solid App, Helpful
This is a good app - definitely worth the $5 I paid for the full version. Straightforward and clean, it provides me with a visual way of checking over my habits (I track about 10 every day). I’m a person with some significant ADHD symptoms, and I have always found it hard to be consistent when I want to start something. Momentum has definitely helped. It has a “reminder” function, which is extremely useful. I used to try to track my habits on excel/numbers spreadsheets, but I would always forget to fill it in on days when I was thinking about my habits. Momentum reminds me to check in, so even when I forget to do a habit, I at least have to think about it at the end of the day.
I have two small complaints, and one wish. First, for some reason, sometimes the app doesn’t always allow me to edit the current day’s habits. Often, I have to quit the app and restart it in order to put a “check mark” in the boxes for the current day. Restarting always fixes the problem, and it only takes a few seconds, but it is a slightly annoying inconvenience. Second, the reminder is not accompanied with any sounds - just a notification that pops up in the top corner of the screen. A gentle noise would help get my attention. Finally, the app only lets me see about 11 days in the window. For all practical purposes, this is more than enough. However, I have started to wish that I could see a different, broader view that would let me see my progress over longer periods of time.
