About this app

Are you looking to get 8 hours of sleep every night or get your daily workout in? Have you been meaning to finish that audiobook but can’t find the time? BetterYou, the Healthy Habits Companion can help.

How it works:

BetterYou is a healthy habits companion that lets you set goals in four wellness categories: physical, social, educational and mindfulness.

The app then works in the background to map how you spend your time. It learns when you’re hitting your goals and when you’re likely to fall off track. BetterYou can update your progress and link it to your goals. When you’re falling behind, you’ll get a gentle nudge reminding you to get back on track.

Features:

Activity tracking - using Google Fit, BetterYou picks up your steps automatically and can share information with you about your step goal.

Sleep tracking - BetterYou tracks disruptions in your sleep through your phone. Whether you’re on an app past your bedtime or you get up and get distracted, BetterYou will be there to help you get a better night’s sleep.

Stay in touch - BetterYou can sync with your contacts and allow you to prioritize your “top people” you want to stay connected to. You can set a goal to call a specific friend or family member more.

Visualize your progress- see your percentage completion for each goal and see specific tips for improvement visually over time.

Places goals - set a goal to get out of the house more by adding social, education and mindfulness places (restaurant, classroom, yoga studio).

Personalized recommendations - BetterYou learns your habits and is able to give you a personalized nudge when you’re off track, keeping you working toward your goals. BetterBot is your Healthy Habits Companion giving you your personalized notifications to help you reach your goals.

Challenges- Did you know having an accountability partner can increase your goal success rate up to 90%? Challenge a friend in areas like steps or sleep, and both get rewarded for meeting your goals.

It is frustrating when the app doesn't recognize the very things it is set to track. For example, it will challenge me to a gym visit, I go to the gym 3 times, and it says, "Sorry you didn't make it to the gym." : (( I have my location permissions turned on, and yet it doesn't recognize my efforts. It will wake me by texting me in the middle of the night to tell me to get some sleep. Ugh. The idea I this app is great, but it can be discouraging, too.

This app seemed very promising as way to stick to goals, but unfortunately it is close to useless because it can't automatically track sleep and fitness accurately. Sleep data more often than not identifies my "bedtime" as 30-120 minutes later than my Fitbit data shows I am fast asleep. Workout tracking from apps is not based on time tracked but it seems just time a fitness app was *open*, so tracking a run in Strava or by Fitbit gives you no credit. Luckily you can enter workouts manually.

Great app! Not only does it have goals to select from, but it also gives suggestions on apps to help you achieve your goals. Ex: if you want to use more free time to learn, it'll suggest apps such as Duolingo, etc to help you accomplish that. Also sends some reminders during the day related to your goals and you can start challenges with a buddy to achieve a goal together
