I'm still not sure if it's a bad thing but it's definitely different. When I use a journal/list/daily routine, I feel like I'm in control but when I use an app I feel like I'm giving that up to someone/something else. When I miss a goal that I wrote in a journal then I'm only letting myself down but when I'm using an app I feel worse about messing up.
I don't know how justified those feelings are but at a certain point I think it's worth sitting down and asking whether the app makes you feel worse about the mistakes than the mistakes themselves.
