Interesting to see habits tracked using an org property drawer. I hadn't considered this before. Org itself has habit-tracking support https://orgmode.org/manual/Tracking-your-habits.html https://orgmode.org/manual/Tracking-your-habits.html using :STYLE: habit.
I'm head-in org land. For habit-tracking, I found removing friction from the tracking process itself absolutely fundmental for longer term success (Atomic Habits, the book, corroborates). Like the author, I also needed mobile access for this. I built https://flathabits.com https://flathabits.com (powered by org) for this purpose (iOS only). In the end, I found I hardly used Emacs org mode to view or track my habits since the mobile app removed all the trakcing friction. Now I just get peace of mind knowing that I can access the plain text file if I want to.
ps. I also built another org mode app for iOS https://plainorg.com https://plainorg.com
- Arubis 5y agoYour work is contributing to the org-mode renaissance; users of the world appreciate you! Now if I could just get multi-platform sync working correctly (iCloud doesn't play nice with Linux)...
- ungamedplayer 5y agoWebDAV is the fuuuuuuture.
- xenodium 5y agoDo you happen to know of an iOS solution that plugs into https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT206481#thirdparty https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT206481#thirdparty that you're happy with?
- xenodium 5y agoHey, that's nice to hear. Have you seen some of the syncing alternatives? https://plainorg.com#cloud-providers https://plainorg.com#cloud-providers Mileage varies across iOS providers, but some users have reported being fairly happy with either WorkingCopy or Syncthing/MöbiusSync which would work on Linux. I'm on iCloud though.
- Arubis 5y agoI'll probably give MöbiusSync another shot; my first experience with it was heavy on battery usage and notifications, light on functionality.
