I haven’t used that many apps like this but I have used a couple. One thing I didn’t like about one of the others was that in tracking habits it kept resetting your progress if you wavered. That’s not how this app works. The AI aspect always has uplifting suggestions and support to help you reach your goals. New meditations keep being added. Journaling is simple. And while data support across devices is not yet supported (maybe a data security aspect), I find it easy enough to copy and paste in a note from my iPad to my phone, so my journaling can be available to me to review as needed. I see this app as being something I will use to reach many of my goals and manage my habits.

Helps me feel less overwhelmed

I feel overwhelmed pretty often, and the Breathwork feature in Neurture honestly helps a lot. Gives me a good guide to using different breathing techniques that are effective and that I didn’t even know about. And the UI itself is pretty calming, which also helps

Reps build strength but Neurture builds growth
First-game
This app helped calm my urges and instill the will power to tackle them. I use the app not just as a one time deal but frequently into my daily routine.
