Possibly the best on boarding yet in addition to a beautifully simple app. Will you try it?

- Allowed me to skip the account setup on first launch (although it was hard to see the "X" and hard to tap). . NOT A FAN - The app redirected me into a "party" that was not relevant for me at all. If you are going to to divert a new users attention, you have to be sure that it's going to be relevant for them. - I would have loved to see some way early on for me to give my preferences (shoe size, brands, etc) to help eliminate some of the options in the app that just aren't relevant for me. - The walkthrough guide was not very useful, it didn't really sell the benefits to me and it didn't help me use the app. Since I had already downloaded the app, there's no need for this to be here. - Asked for notifications permission without promising any value. Do you get frustrated when you have to sign up for an account before you’ve used an app? Let me know below.

Have you ever wanted to be more productive AND help the planet? Well here's your chance! This app uses a pomodoro-style productivity tool with cute animations and game mechanics to keep you focused. When you earn enough points, you can cash those in to help plant a real tree in the real world. What do you think of this app?
. LOVED - The concept of this app is great, I'd love a pomodoro-style app that can encourage me to be more focused. - The animations and graphics are fun and playful. . NOT A FAN - However...for an app that's all about focusing and being productive, this app sure does have a lot of fluff. I'd personally rather it be simpler so I don't feel overwhelmed learning all the features! - A lot of their icons (including their menu) don't have text labels and they aren't clear what their behavior will be. - The app prompts the user to explore various focus times as well as types of "trees" but almost any of the options are locked and direct the to the "store" which is just unnecessary info for the user at this point. Simplify this and show them the value they were promised sooner! - Could have done a better job at priming me for the notification permission by stating that it's important for me to be notified when my time is up, etc. - Their onboarding guide graphics and colors started changing towards the end in an unexpected way. How much do you really use your smart phone in a day? The results may surprise you. Today I take a look at the Moment screen time tracker to see if their app can woo me enough to make me a user. What do you think? Leave your comments below!
. LOVED: - Permission priming. The app lets me know why it will ask for permission it actually prompts me to allow it, that way I can see the value it will provide. . NOT A FAN: - The requirement to select "Always Allow" for location permission wasn't clear to me. It's hidden in tiny text on a notification prompt. Moment had an entire screen dedicated to why it needed my location info...seems like the perfect chance to explicitly say the option I need to choose. - Not a whole lot of data in here once you get set up. It's one of those apps where you'll need to come back in to see how it's going. This is a challenge because the user can easily leave the app without seeing any value. This is likely the reason they asked for notification permission at the start. I do think that they could think more on what value they could provide to a user right away. Perhaps it's stats on their users or tips to decrease your usage. They seem to have something similar in their "Coach" section, but it's too detailed for me. Strip that section to the bones and present it right after the user allows the required permission. - As I think about it, if they are going to insist on a permission flow at the outset, I'd prefer it was full screen and better designed so that they can get all of the necessary information in without it looking so cluttered. It's not like the app that's hiding in the background is very pretty anyway, so it's not much of a tease to leave it sitting there with an opaque filter. A therapist in your pocket. Use Pacifica to track your mood and get insights into your feelings. Get tips on how to increase your wellbeing as well. Have you used any digital therapy tools?
. LOVED: - Notification permission priming: Pacifica asked me what times of day would be best for checkins on a separate, dedicated screen before they popped up the permission request. - Purchase preview: Allows you to preview the paid functionality before committing to it. . NOT A FAN: - The mood checkin screen was very poorly designed. The circular selector was not intuitive and neither was the journaling at the bottom. Plus I received an error when trying to tag my emotions. - Account required without value provided. Pacifica asks me to choose a theme before I create an account which seems silly. However, right afterwards it has me take a short quiz to gauge my preferences. I'd love to see the quiz before the account. - Initial onboarding feature tour didn't focus enough on the benefits I would receive, just what the features were. Loads of usable features without having to pay or sign up! Have you tried these meal delivery services?
