    I found Fabulous to be overwhelming. It never stops asking you questions and getting in your way. It has a zillion features, but I just didn't want most of them. Also, it's super-pushy about its subscription. At one point in the onboarding it pushed THREE "subscribe now" screens at me in a row. Also, it forces you to give it an email address. It's a stylish app, but it's a kitchen sink.

    I struggle to keep using an habit tracker after I start with it. Gamified solutions dont seem to work for me as they dont produce enough interest to keep tracking my habits, and even tho many of this habit trackers have a very polish and simplified interface, Im still struggling to even get into the app and mark my habits as completed. Do you know which one of this apps allows you to use Siri voice commands to mark certain items as completed each day? I think that would be more effective for me to actually keep using any of this apps.

    One of the most puzzling and annoying things about habit trackers is their refusal to include systems which handle multiple habits performed in a day, such as drinking 9 glasses of water. Lots of these habit trackers will make you enter "drink water" 9 times vs. just having a tallying system that allows you to increment the number of glasses you drank. Dr. Young if you perform this research again, it would be great to indicate whether the tracker in question has this feature or not.

    Just if you didn't know, this thing for drinking a specific amount of water liters every day is a mith, different bodys have different needs and there is not a certain proved and held by the scientific community criteria that tells you a concrete amount of water that you have to drink. Just drink everytime you feel thirty and you'll be fine

    the only app that does this is the “Heroic” app but they categorize stuff into 3 categories of athlete, creator, and friend. However, you can add custom targets so you add “drink water” if you want. you can see how many times you hit it that day, in total, and your day streak of hitting that goal
