Pros and cons of Chains.cc app for iPhone and iPad
Chains.cc app good for
Easy to use, and easy to maintain in the long-term, which is the most important factor in the end.
Very straightforward and helpful all to keep tabs on the habits we wish to instill.
This is a great tactical app for building habits or conversely ending bad habits.
The simple pattern thats worked for me, start with 2, then add one a week.
Once u feel youve mastered something, u can drop it off the list.
Good luck!
This is exactly the kind of tool I was looking for. Very simple and easy to use, intuitively designed, with all of the features I need. It has been a tremendous help in building daily and weekly habits. Thank you for this extremely helpful application!
I used this in tandem with the Udemy mini-habits course. It is so simple to use and the daily quotes really instill the importance of daily practice leading to habits
I have found this quite useful to track positive habits for the past couple years. About a year ago I noticed that the sync spinner would sometimes hang. I could still enter info, so I thought sync was just slow. It turned out nothing was syncing, and I only resolved this by deleting the app, thereby, losing months of synced data. Oops. Take slow syncs seriously.
Some bad moments
Sync doesnt work, and you cant even see the chain, you can only mark a new day as done. And if you use the Web version, and change something that you logged with the app version, that change will be overwritten by the old log from the app. Totally unreliable!
Was using this app for almost a year! Was enjoying! And now after last couple of deployments it mixed all the chains. Some data was just deleted, some new chains added. Something really messed up all if this... Sad
Make this app nearly useless unless you log in every day at the end of the day.
I use this app to keep track of breaking my bad habits. Its very motivating to see my chains getting longer as I keep my bad habits in check.
This app is a great idea. Its an intuitive and easy way to keep track of doing various activities, a simple way to encourage the development of habits in a way that doesnt shame. It reminds you of just what you need to do. And the execution is great, attractive, and effective.
The only thing I can think of that would improve this app - I normally keep screen orientation lock on, but with this app I have to turn it off to take advantage of its full functionality. Its a minor inconvenience and I think better design would avoid this.
Great app! use it to track my daily multivitamins and workouts, keeps me on track and productive
