goals_on_dw | recommendation: Finch app

Does anyone else here play Finch?

From their App Store page: Finch is a self-care pet app that helps you feel prepared and positive, one day at a time. I've seen it described in ads as a "self care Tamagotchi," which isn't inaccurate.

You can set goals for the day(/week/month or whatever custom repeat timetable works for you) and get points to spend on clothes for your birb and decorations for their room when you complete those goals. I find myself doing things I should do but don't want to (like taking my nighttime meds, which I am weirdly resistant to even tho I know they help?) because I want to get the rainbow stones to spend on my birb.

Finch is one of two things I pay for online (the other thing being Dreamwidth, hi!) but the free version is perfectly serviceable. You don't get as many limited items but it's not one of those things where you can only set 3 goals or use it for 7 days before they cut you off.

My favorite thing is that you can turn streaks on or off. If you're motivated by streaks, you can have a streak! If, like me, you are demotivated by streaks and the fear of breaking them, you can turn it off.

Please feel free to add me there, too: 29N5JBSC3D. (If you do, please either comment or PM if it's not obvious who you are from your name there!)
