Not sure if you're still answering questions, but if you are, what distinguishes this app from HabitList (http://habitlist.com/)? Is there a reason that I should choose this app over HabitList? It seems like both apps are targeting very similar use cases.

In any case, congratulations on shipping code!

Thanks, appreciate the kind words.

We really tried to pull back the features as much as possible. We storyboarded complex stats charts, reports, being able to add in data for missed days, etc... but all that adds to complexity and technical debt

It looks to me both apps target the same mindset, but with slightly different execution.

Streaks limits the number of tasks and adds pretty icons, plus HealthKit integration, while it looks like HabitList puts a bigger focus on the reporting side of things.
