Shine Self-Care — отзывы
Что хвалят и на что злятся · разбор 500 отзывов · ★ 4.9
Приложение геймифицирует уход за собой через виртуальную птицу Finch, которая растёт вместе с выполнением целей — концепция вызывает искреннюю привязанность, но серия обновлений 2026 года превратила приложение в нечто почти неюзабельное.
Что хвалят
Виртуальная птица как мотиватор
Персонаж-птица создаёт эмоциональную привязанность: пользователи ведут по три птицы на разных устройствах, делятся ими в Discord и говорят, что питомец помогает в тёмные периоды.
I love this app! :) Ive made so many friends over the discord server and I love dressing my birb!
I still love this app. my little finch Jumpies os always happy to see me and has helped me through a few dark episodes.
it keeps not responding! please fix this. I will admit that other than that I spend a lot of time with the app. I actually have 3 different birbs on 3 different devices, so it's kinda an obsession of mine.
Разработчики слушают отзывы
Команда реально читает рецензии — пользователь попросил добавить волосы для птицы в отзыве и через время увидел эту функцию в обновлении.
I recently left a review talking about how I wish there would be a hair feature so you could give your birb hair... and whaddaya know? suddenly, hair is added! Love the developers who made Finch for listening to some random girl with a small request, whos review was lost in a sea with thousands of other reviews. Talk about an app that ACTUALLY listens to the reviews!
it's made me so much more productive and happy and gets me ready to start the day in a happy mood and go about my day happy! It also helped me to stop eating and drinking junk food. This app is totally amazing I can't wait for others to try it!
This app is a fun way to keep myself and my (youth) kids motivated to stay on top of self-care and other goals without nagging. Recommend!
Геймификация работает как мотиватор
Система приключений, монет и нарядов для птицы помогает с ADHD и низкой мотивацией — игровой слой заставляет возвращаться даже когда чистая сила воли отказывает.
I love this app! While it's fun, it also helps me take care of myself by making me more motivated by going on adventures, making friends, and learning about new things!
cute app that gamifies building habits. great for kids... but also adults. 😍 highly recommend
I LOVE this app, and I use it every single day. The little birb is super-adorable, and the app is uplifting. On top of that, it helps my ADHD brain can stay on track.
На что злятся
Лаги и вылеты после обновлений 2026
Начиная примерно с мая 2026 каждое обновление делало приложение хуже: на флагманских Android-телефонах (Pixel 9 Pro) оно лагает, зависает и перезагружает весь телефон.
Edit 6/16/26: I've been using the app consistently for over 4 years. Only recently, with how slow, complicated, and unresponsive it's become, have I actually considered finding an alternative. I no longer recommend this app. Down from 5 stars to 1.
Lag and auto closing are killing me and it's been forever since the bug "was added". I've seen many complaints here and on reddit and there's been some updates on the app but it seems to be getting worse and worse every day. I have a Pixel 9XL Pro so power/RAM shouldn't be an issue
love the app, hate the constant crashing, lagging and updates that make it worse. It is almost unusable at this point. Every update (and there are a lot) I hope it gets fixed and every update it seems to get worse. With the latest one, I can't even type in a new goal without it crashing every other letter.
Удалили трекер настроения
В одном из обновлений убрали ежедневный трекер настроения — именно ту функцию, которая делала приложение похожим на инструмент для психического здоровья, а не просто нарядный список задач.
Deleted my other 5s review and had to remove some stars. I took a break from the app & when I came back they got rid of the mood tracker? WHY? That was one of the only features that made it feel like a mental health app rather than a dressup app. Why doesn't it ask me daily how I am anymore? This is just a fancy goal checklist now.
I use this app daily and it's been a game changer, the only issue I have is that when I have a goal to automatically open logging my mood, if I press "reflect" it will no longer count it as me completing the mood logging goal, it's not counted unless I ONLY log my mood
it helps me a lot. I've been using it every day for months. great that they added goal time sorting on the home screen. I wish it was easier to sort ALL your goals in the other goals tab, or they that they were alphabetical for ease. I do find a lot of the food centric goals a bit concerning from an ED awareness perspective
