Maybe I'm missing something... – Goal Streaks Review

...but the way this app keeps track of your "streaks" makes no sense to me. One of my goals was to exercise 4 times a week. I went to the gym Monday, missed Tue and Wed, then exercised again on Thursday. But when I marked an 'X' on Thursday the app drew a red line between Monday and Thursday and gave me credit for all 4 days. Not only does it make it impossible to mark two individual, non-consecutive days (if I wanted to mark all 4 I would've put an 'X' on each one) but it basically forces you to cheat on your scoring. This is supposed to motivate me? All I have to do is exercise once on Sunday and again on Saturday, and boom, they give me credit for a 7-day, record-breaking streak. Another example: I set up a goal to update my blog once a month, and made it clear that this was a MONTHLY goal. I marked an X on the day in December that I wrote a blog post, a month later I marked a day in January and (you guessed it) the app drew a red line between both days and gave me a streak of 29... At this point I gave up and deleted the app. Can I have my $5 back?
