Thanks aanet, this is a really cool feedback, extremely valuable. I had built the app for my own needs, so the value add is evident to me. And you're right I havent actually though about how this translates for other people. Thanks again!

Glad you took it in the stride... I wasn't trying to be harsh. TBH, I think it is worthwhile to build an app for yourself first. For a user base of n=1. You might have heard of the Barefoot Developer by Maggie Appleton[1], and also by Robin Sloan[2]. I subscribe to that point of view. I actually like your app idea.. mainly because of my workouts. Except that for my purposes I would want to build one with my analytics in consideration. I am currently noodling over the idea (among my several side projects) [1] https://maggieappleton.com/home-cooked-software https://maggieappleton.com/home-cooked-software [2] https://www.robinsloan.com/notes/home-cooked-app/ https://www.robinsloan.com/notes/home-cooked-app/
