Today — Beautiful habit and health tracker

First of all, a big high-five to the amazing Product Hunt community. We’ve been fans since the early days and we’re really glad Today is on Product Hunt.
Today differs compared to other apps in this space in a number of ways:
Starting from the most important one, Today addresses the fact that every habit and every individual is different. Today’s interface lets you build a dashboard that matches your individual needs and the specific characteristics of your habit, not the other way around.
In that respect, we’ve build a set of cards that act as the building blocks for each dashboard. Each card has a specific functionality and comes with many customisation options and it’s easy to re-order and adjust at any point.
For the initial release of Today we chose to include 7 card types, each focused on a different aspect of habit formation and tracking. We are already working on adding many more in forthcoming updates, integrating external 3rd party services and we are enhancing the functionality of existing card types. For example, we are working on a full-screen detail view of the Apple Health charts. It goes without saying that any suggestions are always more than welcome.
Another unique feature of Today, and one of our personal favourites, is the ability to select a photo as the cover of each habit. You can use your own photos or pick from the built-in photo gallery. Icons are great but a photo can be much more powerful, personal, emotional and ultimately, motivating.
Another cool thing about today is that it’s not about habit tracking only. It is entirely possible to use it as a simple quantified-self app to track anything without setting a specific goal.
Discovered this app randomly on App Store before it got highlighted on product hunt. So Using it as its full functionality from last 3 days. I love its customizable goal card plus Apple health cards. It's adds real value when u set some main goal and to achieve that goal u determine the different steps u needs to do and track those as well. But it has lot of work needs to be done, how we navigate within app as it is not smooth drive if u have more than 1 habit or goal to track. It also lacks Apple Watch and notification widget. Notification of the app is not intelligent enough to understand if We have finished the task or goal and keep reminding.
@nilsej I'm really glad you like Today and it's great to know that you are one of the first to use it. The notification widget and Apple Watch are already in the works. The reminders that keeps ringing after the goal completion is due to a weird bug that is already on our radar and will be fixed right away.
@bentossell try it out. It has something called cards, that lets you attach apple health data, charts, photos and milestones. And yes, it is beautiful.
@sandydamy At the moment it's not possible to import data from Google Fit but we've taken note of this and we will consider it in future updates.
Nice product, cool interface! But it's disturbing to only have one habit on free plan.
@freyskeyd Thank you! It's important for us to let everyone use Today as much as possible but at the same time, it has to be viable for our team since we have no other funding. We want to continue building a great app without compromising its vision and quality by adding disturbing ads or cutting corners. That is why we chose to provide a free app with an in-app purchase and we want to make sure the value you get for the in-app is worth the upgrade. That said, we are considering alternative solutions and we have certainly taken note of this.
Today is bar far the best habit tracking app that I've encountered. The app sure is beautiful, elegant and simple. Beside all these, I really like their approach toward designing and approaching habit tracking. Today approaches the habit tracking in a way that health tracker approaches things like 'Steps', 'Weights', etc. Basically, Today sees habits as a health factor and to me it feels very much like Apple Health app.
Overall, I love the app. Well done! 👍
Looks great. It's like a super upgraded version of coach.me, without the coaching aspect. The pro price felt a bit high, and without doing it you can only track one habit. I would have liked to see a 14 day trial of pro, so I have a chance to see how it flows into my daily routine before spending anything. I ended up sticking to coach.me instead, but overall it looks pretty awesome and wouldn't take much for me to move over to it.
@mybizbro Thank you! We want to give everyone the opportunity to try the app as much as possible before deciding to unlock the premium features. A trial version is definitely something that we considered but it is not entirely possible in our case since it could violate some of the App Store's guidelines. We carefully considered the price for the in-app purchase and we believe the value you get in return is greater than those offered by the apps in the same field at the same price point. Also, today is built by a small passionate team with no funding and this in-app purchase will support us to continue improving Today in many ways by adding new features such as more cards types, Apple Watch support, and many more.
@baronetto hopefully you'll add a widget for the today screen in iOS. momentum habit tracker does this nicely.
@bojanspaic Definitely! The widget for the notification screen is on the top of our list.
@baronetto damn App Store rules. Seems a pretty solid app in any case, and I definitely don't begrudge your team making money!
@bojanspaic Awesome! Hope you enjoy Today. We'll be posting more information about upcoming features soon.
Hey, I just added your awesome product on my Collection. ‘App for Life.’ http://bit.ly/appforlife
