Habitat - Group Accountability 4+

I downloaded this app today after realizing that I’ve been stuck in some ruts. A few of my friends joined with me and we’ve enjoyed cheering each other on with our new goals. The app is well designed and easy to use. I reached out regarding opening up the family share option because it felt redundant for my wife and I to purchase the same subscription just to gain access to the same benefits. I received a response almost immediately and they obliged. I’m so thankful for that, and will continue to use this app. It’s definitely going to be helpful to me and my little family reaching our goals! Do yourself a favor and get this app, even if without the premium subscription it’s great.

I’m using this to run an accountability group for health and exercise. I’ve noticed that the chat feature is glitchy. When I send a message, it takes the text from the previous person’s message and places it in my bubble. I have to exit the habit and go back into the chat to see the message I’ve sent/confirm it got sent. Also, one of the group members got a notification that said they’d only completed a habit twice this week when they’d completed it four times. So there seems to be something off there as well. I still like the app and it works well for what we need but fixing these glitches would be super helpful. Also, adding a feature to be able to heart, thumbs up, thumbs down, etc. a particular message in the chat (the way you can in iMessage) would be awesome.

FINALLY! I have been waiting a long time for an app like this and Habitat does not disappoint. I love being able to connect with my friends who live far away to work out or meditate together. It’s great that we can motivate each other from afar and keep each other accountable to improve our collective health and happiness, especially this year. Bravo- can’t wait to see what the future holds for this app.
