Cub: Self Care Pet

I like the idea, I signed up in April. Created all my routines, it is a cute app and good basic habit tracker. I had to pay for a subscription past the trial, there’s nothing free- but the FAQ page says there’s a free version? I fell off the wagon when the kids got out of school, routine changed and we started traveling. But Cub would still ping me with notifications so I just went to get back on and all my stuff is gone. I had to go back through the setup process and was asked to sign up for a free trial even though I’m logged in on the same device with same Apple ID etc. And I’m guessing I’ll probably have to set up all my routines which did take a while. Still like it and hopefully will get it resolved but worth sharing as anyone with ADHD knows that being locked out of an account and having to do a bunch of stuff to either get back in, start over or get a refund is kind of our worst nightmare 🤪

I downloaded this because I thought it was related to the Finch Care self care app. Like maybe the same app with a different animal or something. The set up and even icon look IDENTICAL. But when I get into the Cub app it starts to look just a little off. Is this just a weird knock off of a different app? Or is Cub affiliated with Finch?

This app has made my life so much better I’m drinking more water staying exercised getting enough sleep and I am a LOT more happy download it!💙

It costs way to much and I believe it should be free if they want people to have good wellness I’m not going to pay for this it’s ridiculous

I think this is a really great app that game-ifies whathever tasks I want to add. I have ADHD and it’s helped me a lot. However the things that you can purchase with the bamboo you earn are a little lackluster. It would be so cool to be able to earn outdoor scenery and adventures for your animal, like a backdrop of a trip to Paris, Tokyo, giant redwoods, snorkeling etc. Also earning a different type of animal instead of a Panda: koala, polar bear, tiger, cat, rabbit, etc would be really motivating. Hats, flags, snacks, swag would also be great items to buy with bamboo. I think the rugs and furniture are meh. Thank for the app and for reading this review.

Why not say it’s a subscription upfront before I waste my time inputting info I will never use when I delete the app.

I love the app but why does it have to be so expensive

I love using Cub I myself find it helpful and have had genuine life improvements and positive self reflection thanks to cub! I have However came across a handful of bugs with both decorating and mainly the self reflection options. Sometimes the furniture like the lamp will originally stand well in frame where it’s suppose to be but when I switch to see if theirs another one I’d rather have it’ll like become smaller and morph into a desk that’s set up or the bed. So I wish that would be fixed. With the reflection options sometimes when I click on an option it just won’t load? it’ll pull up a blank white panel even if I reload the game it won’t pop up correctly. I have tried where i tapped on other reflections and then the one I want and it works but that’s still kinda inconvenient and makes the app less appealing. I look forward to more bug fixes :)

I’ve only been using the app for a day or so- it’s got some cool features. I’m mostly interested in seeing my goals, more than the extra features. I noticed my music kept stopping when I use the app which is problematic for anyone who listens to music while multitasking. I wrote the developers on a Sunday and they responded a couple hours later, promising a fix within a week. that’s EXCELLENT support and I look forward to seeing how this app evolves, knowing they truly prioritize the end-user experience. I ended up buying the subscription because I really appreciate the fact that they listened to my comment, and I hated seeing the “gift” ad on the screen. Well worth it for the low annual cost! I look forward to using this app consistently and bettering myself! Cheers!

I love this app but I have issues with apps like this if I don’t have a widget on my screen the app becomes out of sight out of mine. Everything else is so amazing. Just wish I could have a widget on my screen to remind me HEY DONT FORGET ABOUT ME
