Inspiration

I've always been a goal oriented person and at any given time, I may have 2 to 3 different goals I'm working towards. One thing I often do is look back from time to time at different stages of my progress, which I track through writing in a journal or photos and videos I’ve taken along the way. Seeing how far I’ve come is a huge motivator.

The majority of the goal trackers available only track how often you do something, like go to the gym, and sometime make a note or leave a rating about that action.

I wanted to create a goal tracker where the emphasis is not just on tracking your actions, but also tracking your entire journey.

This is why I built Strively.

What it does

Strively is a goal tracker that not only tracks your actions towards a goal, but also tracks your progress with prompted journal entries, photos, and color.

Challenges we ran into

People measure progress in different ways, so designing a UI that was not only compelling, but simple AND flexible was my greatest challenge.

What we learned

We (I) learned that simple is always better. The more features I added to the app, the more complicated it became (and the less effective). Once I paired the UI down to the bare minimum, the app suddenly started to shine.

What's next for Strively: Goal Tracker and Journal

Talk to as many users as I possibly can to make Strively better. My ultimate goal is to help as many people as possible meet their life goals.
