Habicat - Gamified Habit

I tried other habit apps that boast gamification for a while, but none quite worked out for me for very long. There was an app that was similar to this one, but it just didn’t stick for me. I don’t remember how I found this app, but I’m so happy I did! From all the habit customizations to the challenges that were recently introduced, there is soooo much potential in this app that I didn’t even hesitate to sub at the low monthly tier. I look forward to future updates!

Overall like the structure An improvement to QOL is more customization. The longer the player customizes the more invested they are in the character. Also need more options like “To dos” and bad habits that damage the player driving personal improvement. I would also recommend a coin system with a store where you can buy rewards such as indulging on things.

This is such an ingenious app. It makes working on my habits very rewarding and enjoyable — well, I also like to game so I’m not going to deny I’m partial towards the whole theme. The monthly challenge in survival mode is a good incentive. I became eventually emotionally attached, not wanting to lose my progress on my habits and character 😂 I’ve been using it for a month straight without missing a day. It’s helping me keep healthy tabs on my own achievements and reframing my day in a more positive light - if one part of my day fails me, there are other areas that can possibly make up for it. Plus I look forward to the gears and the rankings. Thank you so much!

I really enjoy this app because it has helped me build better habits and a consistent routine. However, I encountered a bug during the first monthly boss. I was close to reaching the required damage for the badge when my character was eliminated from the leaderboards and my progress erased. Even now it shows all the days I checked-in the habit, but the damage I dealt does not match the amount of times I checked-in. I hope this bugs gets fixed so that other like myself do not miss out on collecting badges they worked to achieve. I still love the app and I look forward to what more can be implemented. No hard feelings, the app still accomplishes what it sets out to do. Edit: I just realized that the bug was fixed 11 hours ago. I did not realize because for some reason I have to manually check the App Store for updates. It’s a shame I missed out on the badge. I would love to somehow earn it since I have proof of my check-ins.

Really wanted to use this app, but the lack of character customization and skin tone options is a no go for me. I like to make characters that look like me so I can imagine myself as the character in the game - and as of now that isn’t possible - you’re stuck with a blue eyed blonde character that represents a small portion of the population. Sad because the features and gamified tasks look really polished. Would love to try this again if new features are added!! But as of now I’ll keep hunting for a more inclusive gamified tasks manager

first, I’d like to say this is a pretty cool app. Though I’ve only been using it for a couple days. I found the gamification of my habits and hobbies incredibly helpful. that said, I do have a couple suggestions. 1. It’s imperative that there be more base avatar options. Though I’m personally a white girl with blonde hair, the fact that that is the only default avatar option is not the vibe in 2024. Please add some additional hair/skin/eyes options for the default avatars. 2. It’d be great if you could add variable levels of difficulty to your habits/hobbies. For instance, let’s say you want to track your reading. Instead of having one habit, i.e. read for 10 minutes, with either a difficulty of easy, medium, or hard, you could have a more broad habit i.e. read, and then different difficulties assigned to the amount of time spent doing that hobby, such as 10 mins-easy; 20 mins-medium; 30+ mins- hard. That way increased levels of productivity irl are reflected in the app more accurately.

Being able to customize the character to look more like me would be great! As well as adding extra attributes like other reviewers have mentioned.. Charisma / Vitality / Dexterity? Also would be cool if you add quests of some sort that you can complete via doing more of your habits/tasks / maybe you can battle monsters in the game and you can only defeat based off your attribute level / equipment and if you defeat them - you can get special equipment. Having a to-do list section would be cool too for one time errands / tasks I need to do

This tracker has actually worked for me compared to some of the other ones I've used! It's very simple, and I can see it gaining more features too. I think more stat categories would be nice, like charisma (ex: Social events) and dexterity (ex: developing skills). Also, maybe a Pomdoro timer? The character is a nice customizable, and I can imagine the timer would be something like an animation of your character dungeon crawling for the time you set! It would be super cute!! Overall, cute and simple habit tracker that I would love to see developed more!

That is to be able to adjust the start and end of a day. As sometime who sleep past 23:59 even if you complete a task for yesterday I think it still doesn't count (and you have to go back to yesterday) Habitica has this feature and it comes in handy

It’s a really cute app. I wish I can change the characters hair eye and skin color!
