Habitica: Gamified Taskmanager App Reviews

Habitica helps keep me motivated! It encourages me to do the things I should do but dont want to. In the few weeks Ive been using it, Ive flossed, exercised, and cleaned more than ever. Habitica helps reinforce good habits and reduce bad ones - and it makes it fun!

Its been so useful.

I cant say enough how much this app and website have changed my life. For the last few weeks since I got the app, Ive been talking about it nearly non-stop... And for good reason. Ive struggled for at least 12 years with self discipline and motivation, and no matter what, no organizational apps have been able to keep up with me and my needs. But this is set up perfectly to help me just the way I need. It gives me tangible things to work towards accomplishing, with more of a reward than the sense of accomplishment of checking something off. It helps me to see the progress Ive made and break things down into manageable tasks, to sort them in ways that are logical to me, and to take hold of my life day to day as well as in the long term. Ive nearly all but broken one of my longest standing bad habits, and the dailies allow me to make sure Im getting done the small things each day that I might otherwise forget in the midst of a schedule that changes dramatically day to day. The app doesnt have quite as much functionality as the website, in terms of not having quite as many little goodies, and there are the occasional glitches. But on the whole, the main functionality of the app, where the task management is concerned, functions exactly as it should, and thats what matters the most. I definitely recommend using it concurrent with the website interface, as some of the other aspects function a bit better there. But on the whole? The experience is incredible no matter where you use it. Id say this app may not be for everyone, but since starting to use it, Ive gotten my family into using it, and theyve in turn spread it to their friends... So thats people anywhere from their mid-50s to as young as high school all finding the benefit in it. So maybe its not for everyone... But I think everyone should at least give it a try before deciding its not for them, because the appeal is pretty universal.

Great way to remind yourself of what you need to do and feel rewarded for even doing small things.

Everything thats not habits, dailies, to-do, or rewards is smushed to the side. That means pets, skills, mounts, items, clothes, party... All of that shares one tab. So it gets clunky. Also, I have two accounts, and when I switch between the two accounts, the app usually gets confused. Sometimes dailies or habits from one account appear in the other account. This problem is fixed by force quitting the app. Also when I log out and then quit the app and then open the app (i log out and quit the app before going to bed; I open it up again the next night), I have to skip the "Intro to Habitica" again. Then it asks me to register, and I have to click the "Log On" button (since Im already registered) and then log in. I mean its understandable that the app isnt used to toggling between accounts bc people usually dont do that so lol its ok its just sort of annoying but its fine lol

Truly is changing my life. Im not a lazy person but .. this is an easy way to track/organize and be held accountable for everything it is I want to be doing with my life. Im not sure why it works, but it really does. Give it a go and see if it works for you as well!

Im super impressed. Incredible work, yall.

An absolutely brilliant tool in behavior therapy. This app takes the addictive components of RPGs and employs them for self-improvement. I find new mind-blowing uses for this game a couple times a week. I cant shut up about it. It doesnt just help you remember what you need to do and encourage you to do it; it actually teaches you how to organize your life, how to be productive, how to do the things that lead to happiness and fulfillment, how to get the life you want. Make a tag for your relationship, your business, your social life, your housekeeping, anything: and watch that area of your life blossom. Im using Habitica with two close friends and the three of us are continually experiencing overwhelming bursts of gratitude to this app for helping us pursue the lives we dream of.

Its pretty funny, but now that my lifes a video game, i can finally feel motivated to do stuff. There used to be some annoying bugs but they seem to be banished now :) Its best to use this as well as the website, as theres some things like writing a bio for your character you cant do on the app yet.

Ive tried so many different apps to get myself motivated and organized. Saw this while I trying different productivity apps out and thought I would give it a shot. I now cant imagine my life without it and Ive probably never been so productive. The real-time reward for completing tasks and the advanced customization in this app (and the website, for that matter) make this a fantastic app. I would recommend to anyone, especially college students who have a lot of things to keep track of.

Habitica has helped me start and keep good habits.

This is the first app that has truly helped me beat procrastination. Its nerdy but awesome and I love it.

Works well and its very beautiful

I love this app and the platform behind it. It helps me exercise, drink water, be on time to work, go to bed early, do the most important work done first thing each day, and get loathsome tasks accomplished. Im not a gamer but Ive found it fun to "buy" rewards, upgrade my equipment, and raise pets. I get a bit ornery when I dont accomplish enough tasks, which is kind of a double-edged sword, so I need to stay balanced and not rely on it too much, but it is a good tool to use for getting the undesirable-but-important things done in life.

I have never been so happily productive :) I love the regular features updates for the app and how receptive the team is to the community! Such a great app and service. Very happy I found it!

I love this app. It really helps to motivate me complete my work tasks and stick to my health habits while being a lot of fun. Its also fun to do with friends to keep each other accountable.

Looks great! Coming along very nicely!

Part to-do list, part positive habit reinforcement, this app makes chores, decisions and activities feel like part of a game. This has helped me better track the things I want to accomplish while making it psychologically rewarding to complete them. I look forward to using it every day!

This app has been deeply helpful to me as someone who struggles with anxiety, executive dysfunction, and agoraphobia. It lets me create my own goals, and not only does it reward me with (surprisingly motivating!) experience points and in-game gold for accomplishing them, it also makes checking the app and approaching those goals entertaining and fun. Thats so essential! I dread doing so many things that I have to do in everyday life, and this app gives me positive associations with doing the hard things. Im so much more ready for the challenge when I have this concrete way of recognizing and rewarding my own efforts. Using Habitica has had a significant positive impact on my daily life, my ability to function, my self-esteem, and even my relationships. For all of that, and for the constant improvements, and for the involved community, and definitely for making the app cost zero dollars to use, I am deeply grateful. Thank you, Habitica.

I have found myself so much more productive while playing this app with friends and family! As we become competitive I find myself getting much more done
