Tangible and Observable Results **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Rashed A. | Graduate Studen, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 23, 2024 **What do you like best about BetterYou?** It shows you exactly where you excel, and where you are lacking. It automatically track most of the goals, so no need to remind yourself to get on the app and log actions yourself. The habit score is a great way to know where you are, and if you have a great score for two weeks straight, you know it's time to raise your goals a little! Which makes the whole concept tangible and observable. **What do you dislike about BetterYou?** I would loved for some of the goals to include more practical progress logging methods. For calling friends and family: I would loved if it could track other social media apps as many people use other apps beside just normal phone calls. For Reading: I wish I could've used another method for logging goals as I only read physical books and usually at home. **What problems is BetterYou solving and how is that benefiting you?** It's helping me moving more, mediating more, sleeping better, and overall getting my habits on track. Me being a better me. ### 2. Get your self logging the little things that matter. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Laura E. | Educator, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 22, 2024 **What do you like best about BetterYou?** This is the first app that just doesn't focus on your physical fitness but your mental fitness as well. I love going to see how I am doing for the week as far as reading, socializing, sleep, and more. Some of the apps are integrated making it easy to use and to keep you coming back to check in. **What do you dislike about BetterYou?** The only thing I wish is my data about reading and other apps was an automatic thing (rather than a screenshot) but I understand the logistics of having apps talk to each other. **What problems is BetterYou solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is helping me to maintain my mental wellness as well as making sure I keep my body in check too. ### 3. Accurate and holds me accountable **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 22, 2024 **What do you like best about BetterYou?** Better You accurately syncs with my devices. It hold me accountable to reach goals I have set for myself. It is also fun to challenge friends/coworkers and try to beat them to completing the goal. Who doesn't like a little friendly competition. I like that I can also manually enter progress towards my goals as I live in a rural area and sometimes going to a place for check in to a goal is not always feasible. **What do you dislike about BetterYou?** Downside is that on some of the goals you have to visit a place, I live in a rural area thus limiting my options and opportunities to go to places. **What problems is BetterYou solving and how is that benefiting you?** BetterYou is helping me meet more goals. Aside from meeting my steps, sleep and fitness goals Better You gives the the opportunity to practice self care through reading, socialization and spirituality.
