North Star: Goals & Habits
authentic ratingA goal-setting tool where habits are one means of achieving a goal. Under each goal: tasks, milestones, photos, and habits. Beautiful design with animations. The developer responded to reviews and added features. Issue: sync between devices has reportedly stopped working. No punishing streaks. Habits live in the context of a goal rather than as a standalone list.

About the rating
Detailed reviews with specifics: 'twinkling stars in night mode', the developer's name Katie, requests about measurement units. One two-star review about sync stopping, a genuine long-term user. No templated praise.
