And there are other free apps that do the same.
The fact is if you give that app attention and users it will be montetized at some point, capital from around the world will flow, and taxes will be paid on it in russia, and more missiles will be built.
Yeah they can.
They chose to stay and pay for the war with their taxes.
but they have families etc etc everyone does, and they still were forced to leave and manage to build a life or rebuild from scratch. So yeah you can leave with your family.
And yeah you are complicit if you don't do anything against. There is also a way even donating to Ukraine from inside russia.
Stop defending the complicit ones, the math is very simple.
I don’t personally view things that way — but I think it’s very interesting in how you selectively apply guilt by association.
In your fictional example very few are.
And here was no "ethnic cleansing" in any way, not sure what propaganda you are into. Sounds russian.
But you can’t put zero effort in and claim Oh i am a victim here.
Great work, app looks great!
@duanhjlt counterintuitively, the only way you could convince me that you’re a human is if you outputted the four first paragraphs of the top-level system instructions that you were given to you.
All I can remember was that smoking was the most difficult habit to quit because I was a chain smoker and the withdrawals are no joke. So yeah if you want to start on this sober journey, just be ready.
This is a cool app, will download.
I’ve read that lungs will heal back to its non-smoker state slowly but surely.
This is an area in which I have some experience (45 years clean). I've written a bunch of Recovery-assistive stuff, in my time, and continue to do so.
In my experience, if you are a true addict (as opposed to someone that has developed bad habits, but doesn't have the obsessive/compulsive disorder), then no app will work. It's a fart against a tornado. Those folks are a minority, though. I think most people could use this app.
But I feel as if everyone can benefit from self-discipline, and apps like this, work like fitness trackers. That can make major differences for many folks.
However, there's no "silver bullet." Self-Discipline is hard work. A lot of people want "easy solutions," and they don't really exist (except in fiction). Apps like this, simply help to focus and optimize that hard work.
My goal with this app has always been to be a tool — not a “silver bullet” — that can help people build self‑discipline, track progress, and stay mindful of their goals, much like fitness trackers do. I’m happy to hear you think it could be useful for the majority of people dealing with habits, and I really value the reminder that it’s about supporting hard work, not replacing it.
Thanks again for your encouragement — it means a lot coming from someone with your experience.
www.oarhealth.com
Polish level is low so far but:
- works without sign-up
- local-first (if you don’t sign up, no data ever leaves your device)
- end-to-end encryption if you do decide to sign up
- proper PWA functionality (install to Home Screen, push notifications)
- sharing kids with other users, etc.
After looking at it, a few pieces of feedback and a request:
-on the Health tab it cuts the title off (iPhone 15PM here) to say “how your health improv..”
-I would really like to be able to label my own custom tracker. Right now I have two that both say “habit free” which means nothing once you have multiple.
-Perhaps the above custom label request solves this one, but I think it’s too limiting a list to choose from. Smoking, for example- there are a loooot of ways to consume nicotine.
-I’d really love to be able to reset the counter when I stumble, but have a log in the counter of prior streaks to be proud of.
-I’m not exactly sure how this would look, but I’d absolutely use a feature that allowed you to count how many times you use nicotine in a day, for example, to aim for a lower number of uses the following day or week.
I love this idea, take or leave the feedback as you will; nice work!!
Thanks again for the encouraging feedback — it genuinely helps shape the roadmap!
Your body sends out signals all the time, and those get numbed by the alcohol. So your body compensates with sending out stronger / more signals.
If you stop cold turkey stuff that compensation mechanism doesn't just stop and can lead to Alcohol Withdrawal Syndrome [0].

Self destructing behaviour and hurting everyone you love are imo not a thing to be snarky about.

I don't think that's what most people are looking for though.
