Average: Move to Done when Goal is reached
I noticed when setting up a habit like "Push-Ups" that if I have a daily goal of say 100, and I log 20 push-ups, then the task is considered as "Done" even though I haven't reached my goal. The same is reflected on the iOS 14 widget. Isn't this a bug? Shouldn't the habit only be considered as Done when I reach my goal of 100?
6 votesThanks for reaching out! This is not a bug because most Average Per Day goals are only logged once (e.g Sleep) but I totally understand where you’re coming from. So, I’m thinking through a new field called Move to Done that could have a When Goal is Met option for these scenarios. We have to get through a few more updates before we could add this, but I’m planning to add it when we’re able.
In the meantime, if you log less than your goal for the day you can always swipe right or tap the log icon while it’s in the Done section and tap Add New Log. The app will automatically add all the day’s logs up for you.
Hope that helps. Best of luck with all your goals & habits!

Group trackers by tag
Currently we can view the progress or dashboard of trackers linked to particular tag. This is great help to check if we have done the important tags first.
Similar view or option to group the trackers per tag can be helpful in data entry window too. This way while checking the pending tasks for today , I can check the important tags first and clear them off.61 votes -
Color theme options
The blue is a bit too much especially on the widget. Could premium subscribers get a few options to change the color theme?

Track weekly habits by accounting for "free days", like Productive
Strides is in general a much better app than Productive, but the one thing that Productive does way better is tracking weekly habits accurately. So, for example, if I want to exercise 4 times per week, my first three days in a week that I don't exercise are "free", and don't count against my "perfect score" for those days.

Break big goal into small steps
Create a new tracker type with the ability to add checklists/milestones and break them into smaller steps.
1,013 votesIt’s great to see this one getting so much interest! We’ve designed a new tracker type specifically for breaking big goals down into small steps, and we’ll release it as soon as we’re able. Thanks for your patience. Have a great day!

Have to option to disable project end date.
Not all tracked projects require an end date. They can be open-ended. As such it would be nice to just have a 'open' project that one can complete without worrying about timer running out (obviously I'm aware I can set the date way in to the future)

A referral plan!
Invite a certain amount of people to the platform and you could potentially receive like a month or something for plus version for free.. I have a lot of friends I would love to refer to this program and already have started telling others! I think it’d be even better incentive to let people recieve more potentially for free

Enable Launcher / inter-app linking
I’d like the ability to add a link/URL within a habit (or a target app) that I could trigger from within Strides — for instance to trigger a Shortcut, open a separate checklist, my calendar, or fitness app.

Keep “Done” Habits in Today View
I’d like an option where “done” habits are kept in the Today view even after the goal number is reached. Eg. Right now, if I have a goal to read 2 times a week, that habit disappears from Today view for the rest of the week as soon as I reach the goal. However, I’d like for it to stay so I can easily log subsequent instances. Just because I’ve already met my minimum quota doesn’t mean I want to stop logging or to not see how much I went over and beyond.
Thank you!
6 votesThanks for reaching out! That’s how I designed it originally, but I was surprised to get over 100 complaint emails about weekly/monthly habits still showing up on the Today view after the goal was achieved.
I’m working on something that should make this easier. In the meantime, you can always swipe to log any tracker from the Reports tab.
Best of luck with all your goals & habits!

A Counter without goal value
I’d like to be able to track how many times I complete a habit in a day without making a specific goal of how many to achieve. This way I can feel good each time I mark it, while staying flexible to the time I have on that particular day

Improve History view
Make it easier to see log history by removing empty rows for unlogged days, allow choosing/editing time stamps, show notes in-line, improve legibility and make it easier to add/delete logs.

Ability to Set End Date for Archived Habits
When a habit is moved to the archive, we should be able to set a date the tracking is stopped.
I like the data I used to have about % of days I accomplished the habit, but as time passes and I am no longer logging it because it has been replaced and is in the archive, the data is diluted by months of inactivity that is factored into the percentage. By archiving the habit, I want to preserve that data for the active period, not lose it to time.95 votes -
Allow me to compare recent trends with long-term averages
This keeps coming up, and you guys keep doing things that aim in the general direction, but I (and I suspect others) still have an unfulfilled use case. I have a tracker where I want to do 20 per day. I can see in the today view that over the 8-9 months I’ve been using Strides, my average is 17.9 per day, so obviously I need to step up my game a bit. What I want to know is: Over the last (week/month/couple months), have I been stepping up my game or not?
Because I’ve accumulated months of data, over-performing…
3 votesHi Brendan,
Thanks for reaching out! I totally understand, and this is a tricky problem to solve, mostly because the majority of the trackers are Habits (done or not).
I originally designed the Trends report to include data from each tracker type, but it became very confusing in the beta due to every tracker having different time periods and meanings. Plus, it slowed down the charts. So, I redesigned it to focus on whether you’ve moved something to Done or not, and it’s much clearer now.
As for not being able to move the average over such a long time, do you log this tracker once per day? If so, you could solve this in a different way: Rolling Average.
With Rolling Average, you can choose the number of logs to consider (e.g. the last 7 logs, or the last 30 logs) for the stats.
That way, you will only…

One-Time Tasks
I have used almost every productive / tracker app there is and Strides is by far the best but in my opinion it lacks this one simple tool. Strides has become my calendar app and if I could add in random tasks as well it would remove the need for me to switch to my calendar app at all. I'm aware that Strides is not trying to be a Calendar app but this simple addition would allow me to have an overview of EVERYTHING I need to do that day including the little tasks like remembering to "Pay a bill"…

An option for trackers to be counted toward the Progress bar
Some trackers do not need to be counted toward the progress % bar. Please include an option to toggle on or off for each tracker. It's okay to have it toggled on by default.

Track habits that I want to do 3 times a week, but within the day, I can mark them multiple times
Track habits that I want to do 3 times a week, but within the day, I can mark them multiple times.
For example, I want to meditate 3 times a week for 10 minutes at least. However, I want to definitely mediate 3 times a week. If I set it as a habit at the moment, then I could do 30 minutes in one session, and then mark the habit 3 times, and am done for the week. But that is not what I want to do. I want to have a minimum goal of 10 minutes (to make it…

Tracker types: Make it easier to choose
Would love to have the option to edit the tracker type on an already created tracker OR to see an example of how the results would populate when you create a new item to track so you can decide how you really want to see the results without having to create multiple items with different tracker types just to see what it would look like.
7 votesThanks for reaching out! Since the tracker types have different data types it’s not possible to change the type after the fact, but I totally agree that it should be easier to choose the type upfront. So, I designed a new way to do that with screenshots of the charts and goal/habit examples when choosing a type. We’ll add this later this year, after Progress Reports, iOS 14, etc.
Thanks for the feedback!

Remove Notifications After Logging Or on Consecutive Day
Hey Kyle,
Thanks for responding to my last idea about removing notifications from the lock screen after they've been logged.
Firstly, I'd like to request the automatic removal of habit notifications from prior days. I.e any reminders from yesterday are automatically cleared at midnight.
Secondly, I've done some testing and figured out the issue I'm having. When you set a reminder for a singular habit and then log the habit through the app the reminder will disapear. However, if you have two or more reminders in your notifications and you log one of them off the notification won't disapear. The…
4 votesInteresting, thanks for following up. I thought this was controlled by the system, so I’ll look into this to see how we can clear those extra notifications for the same tracker.
