Gola - Goal Tracking

Beautifully calibrated haptics, simple design and a joy to use but: — the Reset goal button doesn’t work — I tried to reset a goal that was a countdown back to zero and haptics registered but no change — it gives random suggestions for goals — like telling me I should use an app to track books I’ve read associated with my smoking cessation goal

Gola is superb. I’ve used it before it was cool and I’ll keep using it for years to come. It looks beautiful, it’s full of features, and most importantly the devs won’t collect your data like most other goal tracking apps like to do. Beautiful customisation and very great value for money. Get this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A nice, clean, good-looking app to help track your goals. If you need help staying on track, give Gola a go!

I downloaded this app to help me achieve my goals and keep track of them, in an easy but effective way and this app does this perfectly. This app is a hidden gem and after using it only for a little while you will realise it is the best goal tracker on the App Store. I have now got the Pro version and it isn’t necessary but it makes such a huge difference into how you plan to achieve your goals and it gives you advice on how to achieve the goals you set. Overall this app is great and you should 100% download it to see your motivation and productivity go up.

I’ve really enjoyed this app. It’s simple, and helps me stay on track

I’m using it to track some New Year’s resolutions and the interactions and interface are so delightful. I’m actually having fun completing my tasks and achieving my goals!

Unique take on tasks management. Helps you turn your todo list into a goal list. I do like the UI and the pleasing themes on the eye. There are some areas I could suggest improvement. It appears the Performance level wanes the more info you add to its database. Scrolling becomes sluggish and unresponsive at times. If you delete a goal sometimes the app freezes. Search is a nice feature but you can’t find more than 2 goals at a time. It completely hides additional goals with the same search terms. It does search in both title and notes. I have tested. But still only finds the first two at most in the search results. Those basics need to be fixed before it can become a daily staple on your phone. Even still I want to use the app because it’s so cool and different. I would also suggest the sub-goals be renamed as tasks. Or let sub-goals be broken down into tasks for another layer or organization. The URL attachment is a nice feature and it even works with Callback URLs / deep links (so few apps allow tappable links to callback URLs). This lets you link to a Bear note for example to hold further details or resources for your goal / project. I love that you can add an icon or emoji to each Goal. I would like a simple habit tracking / task option for regular recurring tasks, habit or routines. It would allow you to consolidate your habit and recurring activities into one app. System Calendar integration would be icing on the cake — so you could see your day’s schedule while making your goal plan for the day. A calendar view that you could assign goals you want to work on for the day, week or month. And a log view — a way to see the progress as you check off items on your goals in one place — not just goals fully completed but those you took action on for the day. You checked off a subgoal or added a value to another goal, etc. Image attachments for goals — because a picture would provide added motivation and help you visualize the fruition of your goal. A scratch pad for time-stamped notes and ideas nestled neatly under the goal — a place for important notes about the goal, that you want to reference — that go beyond the scope of the goal description. Loads of possibilities and potential and the fact that it has a working Apple Watch app is a huge plus. I realize most of these suggestions will be thrown out into the ethers. Here’s hoping one of them might stick and that the review actually gets posted. With Apple’s ai algorithms you

This is simple, displays your goals well, no need for stock image or motivational mumbo jumbo. You set your goals, and you get to see them as widgets. - I would love to see some more patches for minor bugs and more features. But this is soooo good! No nonses, just VALUE.

Bugs

I swear I can have so many ideas and then it comes time to write them down and my brain switches into duuuuuuuhhhhh mode and I can’t think of a single thing to write! The templates are so helpful for a starting point and then expanding from there!! Loving this app so far!
