1. Bug with trends display for average trackers with "or less" goals

   Right now, the trends page displays progress incorrectly for average trackers with an "Or Less" goal (e.g. 10 or less per day). For habits and average trackers with an "Or More" goal, it shows the number of days where the goal was achieved. For "Or Less" trackers, it shows the number of days that were recorded, whether or not the goal was achieved.

   For example, let's say that I have an average tracker set to 60 or more per day called "Push-ups", an average tracker set to 60 or less per day called "TV minutes", and a habit tracker called "Brushed teeth".

   Let's say on day 1 I do 70 pushups, 0 minutes of TV, and I brush my teeth (all goals achieved). Then on day 2, I do 10 push-ups, 70 minutes of TV, and I don't brush my teeth (no goals achieved).

   If I go to the trends report, it will correctly show 1/2 for push-ups and brushed teeth, but incorrectly show 2/2 for TV minutes.

   Let's say on day 3, I brush my teeth, do 60 pushups, and 0 minutes of TV, but I do not complete the TV tracker. On the trends report, brushed teeth and pushups will now have 2/3, and TV will also have 2/3. Btw, I don't have an issue with the fact that "Or less" average trackers mark a day as a fail if you don't log a result. This is the same logic that is used for bad habit trackers, and it makes sense to me.

   The issue is that for "or less" trackers, unlike for bad habit trackers, if you log that you failed a goal for a day (by logging a number higher than the or less goal), it counts as a success, when that is not the case for any other tracker. For "or more" average trackers, good habits, and bad habits, the trends page displays how many days you were successful, not how many days you logged anything.

   Oh, and I just remembered one other issue, along the same lines. On the "Today" habit logging page (the alternative to the reports page), average trackers (seemingly both the "or more" and "or less" trackers) will display the green "Done" checkmark if you log anything, even if you did not meet the goal and therefore failed for the day. Either by doing too much for "or less" or not enough for "or more". For "or more" trackers, you can opt to not have them be done after the first log, which makes sense to me as an option. But if you choose the other option (to mark it complete after logging the first time), or if you exceed your goal with an "or less" tracker, it should display a red X and be marked as "Missed", rather than displaying the green "Done" checkmark. That is how it works if you mark no to a good habit or yes to a bad habit. And furthermore, after logging, average trackers will display in red text how far under or over the goal they are (for "or more and "or less" trackers respectively). And the streak value is updated depending on whether the previous day was a success or not. So basically, they still have goals, and the app considers those goals not to be met if you do too many or too few for a tracker. So they should also be marked as "Missed" when we've failed for the day, rather than always showing up as successes on that view anytime you log anything.

   Anyway, I hope this all makes sense. I know this was lengthy and I apologize. I was trying to be as clear and explicit as possible, but it's tough because I'm not sure about the terminology you use for various parts of the app. If there's any info or any clarification that I can provide that would be helpful, please just let me know.

   I absolutely love the app - thank you so much for making it. It has been really helpful for me, and I am happy to be a Plus subscriber. Thanks in advance for your help with this.
