Well written! I've had a similar experience with a habit tracking app. I've once stopped using it and after getting back to it after a year or so, it was so much worse with so many new pay walled limitations. An open source habit tracker on the other hand stayed the same for years and was even improved further. If you're inrerested: Loop Habit Tracker https://f-droid.org/packages/org.isoron.uhabits/
Loop is great! I love F-Droid. Many times it's guaranteed you'll find a better alternative to a proprietary, ad-filled app on Play Store, on the F-Droid app
