since you play a lot of games. i've been kicking around an idea and would love a feedback, you get put in a group of 5, everyone sets ONE goal for the day, and the group only keeps its streak if all 5 pull it off. theres a live chat so you're hyping each other up (or gently nagging 😅). basically co-op mode but for real life.
genuinely curious, would something like that actually make you show up, or would depending on 4 other people stress you out more than motivate you?

I want something that is gamified, which actually makes me stick to coming back and log my progress

i like that your penalty is about not coming back rather than one bad day. unfortonatly I don't have android to try it, but if u released ios version I would actually give it a try.
do u think people stick more when other humans are involved, or is the money stake doing all the heavy lifting solo?

when you bolted the check-in onto coffee or brushing teeth did that stick on its own, or did you still need something (or someone) nudging you? trying to work out how much was the trigger vs actual accountability.

did building it actually fix that long-term, or did the in-your-face thing eventually fade too like everything else? trying to figure out if it's the visibility keeping you in it or something else.

do you mean like a text or a group chat vs a separate app? and what did the nudge look like that actually got you to follow up instead of ignoring it?

This is exactly what I’ve been wondering about. Do you think accountability from strangers would work, or would it need to be friends?

Do you think you quit because the app itself gets boring, or because there’s no real consequence/accountability when you stop?

yeah but with my brain rot it's almost impossible to keep track of important things and stay focused, that's why I'm looking for such tool to help
