Almost great
RobbieRob23

I love this app. I’ve been using it consistently since 2014 so I have some great data and can see some interesting trends in my life. I would say this is a great app but I feel it’s potential isn’t fully realized. With light sensors on the phone I feel this is a metric I could track like I do sound and altitude. I would love the ability to better visualize the data. I can cut it by time but cannot see one year compared to the next so easily. Really good at what it does but needs a bit more to be truly great.


The best way to log data on iphone

I’ve been tracking various facets of my life on this app for a while now. It’s incredible powerful while remaining simple.


More features please
jeeves78

Title may be misleading, but I feel like if two new features were added, it would do so much for this app - 1. Widgets 2. Shortcuts support. Honestly, Shortcuts support alone would do a lot for this app. There are lots of other life-tracker kinds of apps and some I use to track certain activities or events, but most try to guide the user too much and aren’t as customizable as Reporter. That being said, if I could create Shortcuts that integrate with Reporter (to create reports for me) by automatically pulling data from other apps into the reports that I log, or if I could integrate Reporter-focused Shortcuts into my Wind Down routine, that would be HUGE!!! Please consider adding Shortcuts actions for this app


Needs shortcuts

I Love how personalized you can make this app for logging whatever in life you need to like symptoms, productivity, habits, etc. But I cannot figure out a way to edit my questions without having the app delete or not use my old data in the proportions, graphs, etc. If a way to choose whether or not old data is deleted were added when you’re editing questions, it would be a lot easier to use!


I am not getting alerts...should I hear a buzz?
Gayle H

I just got the Reporter app to track where I am spending my time. I want to be alerted every 30 mins. I put that in the Notification Settings I clicked on REGULAR and checked that off But I am not hearing the alert go off? Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Or is there a quick easy tutorial on line? Thanks Gayle


Neat app with potential
adzomba

tl;dr The app is great at showing and collecting info for long term analysis, wish it could do the same for short term. ———————— I love that this app simplifies life tracking. It does a wonderful job of allowing you to feel like you have the power over what gets tracked and what you do with that data. I feel like it’s potential still isn’t fully achieved though. Right now, it kind of feels like an app I’m going to have to just use for a year and only then see any interesting trends. That’s going to be super great, but could become so much more useful if I could separate visualizations weekly or even see succinct questions in a list daily. OR if it let me automate my data through the Shortcuts app.


Wish it was still in development

It would be nice to see iOS 12 features included, like screen time, as well as other integrations with app accounts (social media activity, etc.), or an Apple Watch app with richer notifications.


Awesome concept
Danijhdjw

Awesome app, full of potentials. I like to set the survey at 30 min intervals to not only record my process, but also give me an reminder to reflect. I am surprised there are only 30+ reviews. Hope more people can discover this app. For those who are familiar with statistics, this app also exports csv files allowing you to do regression analysis for insight (aka fun)


Buggy App
chris7613493

It seems like a pet project of some student. The UI is not great. I have already seen few bugs in the app. The annoying bug is that even you remove all questions for reporting during the day, the app sends you notifications to report!


Uninteresting - Needs work
Raleigh Runner

The concept is great—to gather various data and look for trends—but most of the analysis part is basically meaningless. First of all, I’d want to be able to set up groups of questions to be asked at specific times of day...not randomly and not just for wake/day/sleep. For instance, I would want: 9am: How did you sleep? What did you dream? 1:00pm: Did you have a healthy lunch? Whom did you have lunch with? (Using my contacts as possible names.) Where? (It would be nice if it suggested places I was over the last few hours.) 5:00pm: How was your work day? 9:00pm: Did you have a healthy dinner? Did you workout today? What friends did you see today? These could also serve as a Reminder app as well. THEN, once you have this data along with data collected by the phone (e.g. where I was, how many miles I traveled, any new contacts added, number of calendar entries, day of week, month, number of pictures taken, etc), I’d like to see insights like: - You travel 30% more on Tuesdays than on other days. - You took 80% of your pictures away from home last month. - You travel 235 miles in an average week. - You traveled 40% less this month than last month. - You exercise more often on Saturday than any other day of the week. - You eat out on 100% of Friday lunches. - You see Bob Smith on 30% of weekdays.
