New Habit: Good Habit Tracker & Bad Habit Breaker - Interview with the developer of a fantastic app

Did you have any prior development or coding experience?

No, I have no coding experience. This is my first mobile app. I created it together with the company I hired. They had vast experience in coding and app development and they were my coding team in the creation process.

What was the most challenging aspect of developing mobile app?

The hardest part was to make all functions and properties of the app intuitive so that every user would find them simple and easy to use.

Povilas Klusaitis is the founder of the New Habit app. He has a successful e-commerce business. He is also the president of the Toastmaster Club.
Four years ago, he became very interested in the topic of habit formation. After reading many books about it, reviewing hundreds of video tutorials, he himself began to apply a variety of tactics in his life to form new good habits and try to get rid of the bad ones. A few years ago, he decided that he'd like to share his experience of habit formation with as many people as possible. So he set out to develop a habit tracking app, New Habit.

Name a few of your favorite apps and reason you love them.

Headspace comes to mind. It’s a very good meditation app, full of useful content and it has a strong community around it.

How long have you been working on this app?

I’ve been working on the New Habit app for 2 years now. It’s taken me a year just to get from the initial idea to launching the app on the App Store and Google Play.

What need of the user did you have in mind when developing this app?

Habits greatly influence our quality of life. However, to form a new habit, or to get rid of an old one, is a difficult task. Often times, people attempt to do it but give up because of the lack of will. New Habit app applies the best habit-forming practices and helps users in this arduous journey of changing themselves.

In what way do you think your app is better than similar apps on the market? Please describe in detail what innovation you think you bring and what you are proud of in your app.

The main advantage of the New Habit app is its content. Compared to other apps on the market, we offer more than 300 new habit ideas. We also share the habits that brought success to famous people. Each habit has a detailed description, instructions, and recommendations, which will greatly increase the chances of developing a new habit successfully if followed.

What are your future plans and expected features of the coming new versions of this app?

Our core plan is to establish a strong community, whose members would support each other and contribute to each other’s self-improvement.

Assuming new users of your app are reading this page. What do you want to ask them to do (contact you about X, Share the app, etc.)?

I would like to urge users to develop one new, good habit. And after they were successful, I would urge to share their achievement with the community. These success stories create a sense of purpose and give an impulse to continue developing the New Habit app.
