The best app to help you achieve your New Year resolutions

It is that time of the year where you set your resolutions and lace up/gear up full spiritually and mentally to fulfil it.

HabitBull is an app that sits on your homescreen and reminds you of your New Year Resolutions. It helps you build positive habits or break negative ones.

This app basically helps you organize your daily to-do in your life on a regular basis.

The app is build to help you and motivate you by putting the “Don’t break the chain” formula. Each day you see the streak and work towards maintaining it and then you do not feel like breaking it. Interesting, isn’t it?

The app developer feels if you are serious about doing what you mention then the app will help you get motivated and work towards it. Focusing on only one or two habits will enable you to achieve it.

When you first open the app, it asks you to connect to Facebook or login via Email. This helps the app to backup your data incase you switch your device during the year ahead.

You can just simply add a new habit by clicking on the minimalistic plus icon and choose a category.

There are a wide list of Categories that you can choose to change habits from :- Fitness, Diet and Food, Study, Hygiene, Time Management, Reading and a lot more...

However it hardly matters which category you choose since they all are there just to inspire you.

There are two types of habit you can make :- 

1. A simple yes or no
2. Numbered

A simple yes or no could be a habit like reading the newspaper or saying prayers or something whose answer you could expect in a yes or no format.

A numbered habit could be the number of pushups you did or the number of steps you walked or the coins you collected.

You can also set the frequency to track this habit... They range from Every day, Fixed weekly days etc. Then set a success day which is when you have accomplished your goal. The default is 66 days since a study states that on an average it takes around 66 days to cultivate a new habit.

The free version lets you create a maximum of 5 habits and premium version allows you more.

Then you can track the days and tap on it once to mark it as success or failure. Green marks success and Red marks failure.

Whether you want to learn a new language, exercise more,quit smoking - starting a new habit is easy, the difficult part is to keep it going. Hopefully, HabitBull will help you achieve your goals in 2017!
