  1. Improve widget's information density

    If I compare the large widget information density with Todoist or Things, it is disappointing.

    I use Strides instead of Streak, etc. because I have many habits, and need a tool to figure out what is next. It is the outcome I am looking for.

    Strides now shows me three habits in large compact, and a "+x more today" text. For comparison, the widget from Things shows 10 lines and the one from Todoist 9. It is a such a significant difference!

    I do not consider switching; however, I will humbly suggest this feature here, as I may not be…

    Thanks for the feedback! I totally agree, that widget wasn't designed to show as many trackers as possible because of the extra info it includes in the subtitles.


    That said, the new Progress widgets can show up to 7 trackers and include progress bars. You can still log from them too. Hope that helps while I look into updating the old widgets.


    Best of luck with all your goals & habits!

  2. Goals Hierachy

    I’d like to request a feature for Strides that enables a goal hierarchy similar to OKRs. Each tracker would represent a Key Result tied to an overarching Objective, which serves as the motivating goal. Additionally, there should be “MOALs” (Massive Overarching Ambitious Long-term Goals) that act as long-term aspirations, into which OKRs can contribute progress. This hierarchy would provide structure and clarity for achieving both short- and long-term goals.

    Hi Adrian,


    Thanks for the suggestion! I'm marking this as Reviewing so other people can vote on it too. In the meantime, I wanted to mention that you can use the Tags & Filters feature to set this up now.


    Each tracker can have one or more tags for the high-level goals you mentioned, and the Group by Tag filter on the Progress Report creates a section for each one with stats about how that high-level goal is going, using the progress/status of all the trackers under it.


    Hope that helps. Best of luck with all your goals & habits!

  3. More customizable options

    I switched to Strides because I enjoy being able to choose “yearly” for some things and tapping instead of only swiping to complete something.
    I was a user of Habit Tracker, and I do miss certain features they have such as being able to keep habits/tasks in the same list once completed, rather than having them moved to a separate list. It would also be neat to have background colors based on time of day so we have an easier visual field of how many things we have to do per day.
    Lastly, in tandem with my first point, it…

  6. I should be able to specify a number of times per day or amount of time per day I want to do a habit separate from no of times per wk/mo

    This is a feature in a number of other apps (like Habit Tracker). You can set a number of times you want to accomplish something per day (like at least 5 times drinking water per day or at least 30 minutes of exercise per day), and independently specify how many times per week (or month) you want to complete that habit (e.g. 4 days a week).

    Strides is so close to being the best, but this feature is key in my mind. I don't want to have to work out every single day, I also don't want to set a…

  7. Weekly widget and home page

    A widget option and home page in the app that shows the entire week for the goals, so you can see consistency for the week at a glance. Right now you can only see daily. Just a circle for each day of the week/habit, and you can click the goal to check it off for the day in the widget or home page

    Cool idea, thanks! I'll keep an eye on this one. In the meantime, if you haven't tried the Progress widget you might like it! It shows a progress bar for the 3-7 trackers you choose, including how you're doing on weekly habits, and you can tap to log them. Have a great day!

  8. Set a track's maximum skip times for a week or month

    Thanks for reaching out. We had a web app with email login for years but it was rarely used and lost a lot of money so we ended up shutting it down and switching to the simpler iCloud sync with no email required. I'm still considering other platforms in the future though so thanks for the feedback!

  10. Be able to log a note as you go through the day without completing a tracker.

    Find myself wanting to capture something before I complete a tracker. Say I track my daily diet on 1-10 scale and have a donut for brunch. Don't think I can enter that as a note currently without completing the tracker. Thanks.

    Thanks for the idea! I'll think about how this could work. Currently you're right, the only way to do this would be to log, which you can also do by long-pressing the tracker and tapping Add Note, but that will log and move it to Done for the day. In that case, you ca always swipe right or tap the green checkmark to add another log, or long-press and edit the log value if needed.

  11. Statistically Analyse user behaviour trends on days they don’t meet up

    I’m suggested this after I realize I’m failing at a specific habit on Monday, Tuesday and mostly on Sunday or Saturday. It’s different for the different habits and I was only able to see this because I looked as the calendar and saw a pattern with the colors. Having a kind of automated stats analyzer plus feedback both positive and negative can help the user improve a specific habit

  12. Net Carbs… please

    Can you please add net carbs to an update? For those tracking meals in MyFitnessPal, or other application, and are serious about a low-carb diet, it would be a “Big Deal” feature because it’s not common among habit trackers. Likely would attract tons of subscribers if you update SEO and the Apple/Google Play stores.

  14. Allow users to set a running speed pace

    This would allow Users to set their goal pace for their chosen distance. For example, being able to set a goal completion time of 30 minutes for a 5k run or 3 hours for a marathon. Not only do you hit daily goals, but you’re hitting more specific metrics that help motivate.

  15. Apple Watch complications showing current progress of chosen tracker

    Currently Strides supports only “Launch strides” type of complcations. This Apple Watch feature could be much more useful.

    How could they work:
    1. Add a complication
    2. Choose complication from available Strides’complications
    3. Choose available trackers
    4. Track your progress

    Visible info on complications:
    - current number (eg. current page of a book)
    - progress bar of choosen tracker goal progress (% of read pages)
    - left to do today to match daily goal (optional - for additional info to previous two or as a different type of complication)

    Most important types of complications:
    - corner
    - circular

    Thanks for reaching out! Great idea. Just to make sure I'm understanding correctly, you basically want the ability to tap a complication to instantly log Yes for a Habit tracker, right?


    If it's a type that requires a number or percent to log it would just open the Apple Watch app so you can enter the value, just like the iOS widgets. Is that all what you're picturing? Anything else you'd like to add?

  19. Due After Completion

    1. In addition to due based on when task starts, an option to have a habit appear as due based on when it was last completed.
      This could be a change to the Intervals option, or a new option. Another way to address it would adding a "defer" type option. When a habit is due, in addition to Yes, No, and Skip, "Defer" would push the habit into the following day, even in in the due day or interval it would not normally be there.

    I have a few habits that are work-related. When I go on vacation, I don't want to mark the habits as complete if I am not in the office and not doing them. I would love an option in the settings for each habit (or project or...) where I could pause or suspend that particular item.

    Thanks for reaching out! I'm considering a pause feature for the future. In the meantime, you can swipe left and use the Skip feature to move the ones you don't want to do out of the Due section without them counting against you on vacation.
