I love the concept of these sort of apps. I am a data nerd, and would really enjoy having a birds eye view of how I spend my time. The problem for me is building a habit of consistent data entry. If I miss a few days it is hard to remember what I was doing and backfill old data.
- alexpotrivaev 5y agoBeing data nerds as well, we were scratching our own itch with Then. We tried to add a few things to make it a part of our routine, like push notifications and homescreen widget. But what worked the best for me personally was seeing the value (i.e insights on my activities): after that it got easier to remember to track. One other thing was focusing only on things that mattered. At first I was trying to track every single activity every day, but then realized that things like showering didn’t really give much insight. So now I primarily focus on activities that are energy draining or which I want to be conscious about (focused work, meetings, side projects, walking, sport etc.)
