Fabulous: Daily Habit Tracker Reviews

I truly do love Fabulous. I have been using it for about a week now, and it has been more helpful than any other app I have tried. I am a young mother to two young boys, I work full time, and go to school full time. I have struggled for years now to learn how to take better care of myself due to my priorities are always making sure my children are taken care of while my health and wellness, both mentally and physically, took the back seat. For the first time in my life, I am actually creating healthy routines for myself. In the morning, I meditate, drink a glass of water, take my vitamins, and stretch. In the evenings I tidy up, read for 30 minutes and write down what went well today. And I’m still only using the free version! I think that is the best thing of all. Due to a strict budget, I cannot afford the premium version of this app at the moment. However, I can still access a lot of the features that are essential to me bettering myself through this process. This also allows me to make sure that Fabulous is everything I need it to be before I make the hefty $50 yearly subscription (I know $50 is not a lot by any means, I just can’t afford that right now🤷🏼‍♀️) and that’s okay! Because I can still thankfully do everything I need to do starting out. I sincerely appreciate the developers of Fabulous, and I hope to stay with this app for many years to come!☺️

I had previously come across Fabulous in the past, downloaded it to see what the hype was and instantly deleted. Recently I came across this user who had recommended using this app to get back on track, and creating good, healthy habits. I’ve always been a routined person, but would fall off and struggle to keep track or stay on track. I would beat myself up and feel disappointed that I had to start over. After taking some needed time off for myself (especially during the pandemic) I am and have been working on myself to heal by getting back into creating healthy and happy routine for a better life.

Just recently downloading Fabulous (again) I wanted to put this to the test. Only after about a week of using Fabulous, I will say that Fabulous is by far one of the best apps I’ve ever used. It’s so gentle but so rewarding and honest about life and being “O.K.” With falling off track, making mistakes, counting the small wins, feeing appreciative, but the biggest one is making me believe in myself more by becoming the best version of myself. Mental health is so important and Fabulous makes you feel like the darks do happen, but you can always come out on top.

So if I had to say what is an app that works and I’m willing to spend the money...well, you’ve come to the right place.

I forgot to cancel the free trial and at first I was kind of 😬 about it because I feel like I had unintentionally spent $40 for an app that reminds me to drink water…. then I realized a) it’s $40 for an entire year b) if you take the time in one day to set your habits and routines for every day in the next coming year then everything balances out. Now that my routines and reminders are set, I love it. I’m a single 29 year old who lives alone and has ADHD with Autism — It’s very important that I stay on a routine or my days can crumble. My old way was tolerable but it consisted of reminders and notes and alarms on my phone in different apps as well as calendars and random post it notes scattered throughout my life. After almost a month of this app I’m starting to feel like a lot of those things are becoming easier keep track of. On the surface it’s an app that reminds you to drink water and stretch but once you dig just a little, it’s a whole world of help.

My only complaint is that they should maybe consider ways of making Fabulous easier for beginners, older people or people who are technologically challenged. I’m a millennial tech-nerd so it was fairly easy to maneuver but I recommended it to my mom, 58 years old (who could also benefit) and she gave up after two days. She says that navigating it at her age was too frustrating. — Personally, I’m very pleased so far. (Almost one month in)

What I really like is you can add items to your routine in really flexible ways. You can add an item to morning afternoon or evening. You can be more specific and add it for a certain time. Or you can be even more specific and add it for a certain duration starting at a certain time. Other apps force you to add in every habit at an exact time, but that’s not realistic. Sometimes your morning routine starts a little earlier or a little later. With Fabulous it simply prompts you to do the items in the order you’ve entered them however long it takes. You can just check one off after the other and if you have to pause in between one or one takes longer one day, you just do it and then check it off whenever you’re finished and go to the next one. It’s lower stress than feeling like you’re behind, or have to stick to very exact schedule. But you can also input I have to always be doing yoga at eight if you want to.. it’s your choice. I do find the requests to sign up for year long or lifetime memberships off putting and pushy. I also feel like the voices and some of the little inspiring animation things can be sappy and condescending. I like the British voices. But who doesn’t? That’s just the aesthetic stuff though. Personal preference. I think a lot of work and thought went into the development of Fabulous.

When you sign up for the free trial or subscription, this app indicates that they can cancel the subscription at any time and that the cancellation will ultimately cancel the auto-renewal. I subscribed to the service over a year ago but decided, a few months later, I did not find the “Journey” in their app to be suitable. So, I canceled the subscription. However, on the anniversary of my subscription, I was charged the renewal fee, even though I canceled my subscription over nine months ago (that is, almost three months after my subscription). Actually, before the renewal, the status in Fabulous was (and actually is still) showing my status as a “ Standard Free Plan.” This is extremely disturbing! They charged me for the renewal even though I canceled my subscription way before the renewal date. Then, they don’t give me access to the service. To make things worse, there is no direct way to contact a customer service representative to help me resolve the issue. You can’t simple start a chat or send a message in a simple way; instead, you need to go through the chatbot and answer a few questions in an indirect approach to get to the page through which you can send a message to customer service, and then you will have to wait for days. They claim that the issue has been resolved, but only time will tell! Overall, nicely designed app (nothing exceptional), but unpleasant experience, and I regretted giving this app my credit card.

When I decided I wanted to change my life into the vision I had of myself in my head constantly, I kept putting it off because I didn’t understand where to begin. I wanted to change basically everything about how I led my life. But how do you just stop doing what you have been doing for so long? How do you get out of the perfectly confortable bubble you've built for yourself? I downloaded this app. It was out of no where, wasn’t expecting much. I promised myself I’d give it a try, there was so many resources, categories to help with whatever I was struggling with & even a community of people sharing their stories. Unfortunately I wasn’t consistent for a while. It took me about 3 months on & off Fabulous . What I liked about it is that it was always there, no judgement, I’d open it a couple times & some days I wouldn’t open it at all. That is the truth about change. I am now fully committed to bettering myself & wont stop until I feel like I’ve learned all of the information & techniques this app has to offer. So if you’re reading this thinking Fabulous is just like the rest, no my dear, this is Fabulous for you. & you are the most important thing in your life, so go & get the resources you need to give yourself everything you want.

I actually got Fabulous a couple months ago when I needed so positive affirmations or medications to just kind of get through the day... as I started slinking a little further into a pretty dark depression I didn’t use it I actually deleted it for a bit and frustrated that I couldn’t get into to app. I thought this little story’s were annoying... then a few weeks back I had gotten so bad I wasn’t eating or taking care of my self at all I started searching for routine apps to just try and get myself taking care of myself to feel better... As I was searching I saw Fabulous pop up and I remembered it did have routines as well. I re downloaded it and I can actually say for the last few weeks of using it. I’m starting to like the story’s and the guidance because I WAS READY... had I reviewed Fabulous a couple months ago it wouldn’t have been positive because that’s not where I was... but I can now say thank you! Because Fabulous is really helping me build better habits and stay on task and I check back on it often and now listen to the story’s because I know it’s going to get me to that next level of taking care of myself. As a Mom/Wife/ and in Management... Who has time for that? Right. Thanks again for a program that’s actually working for me.

As a sophomore in high school who is currently taking ap classes and college courses while still trying to be mentally and physically healthy, this is it. When I was a freshmen I LONGED for a way to engage myself in my studies and my mental/physical health. I had to find an equilibrium. I had no motivation or reason to try at anything. I was looking for help everywhere: talked to my parents, friends, counselors, and a crisis hotline. I couldn’t find a solution so I pushed myself to do a lot of good habits, but in the end, it only deprived me of my motivation and will. I was overwhelming myself as I wanted to find a solution to my ailment. An ailment that ruins many lives. Lives ruined by procrastination. Now as I was looking for help online, I came across this app. Fabulous seemed to good to be true and I gave it a shot for my own well being. Needless to say, I am grateful for this. As of now I have completed the courses: “An Unexpected Journey” and “Staying on the Road.” I’m currently doing “A this app Night.” I know it sounds cliche of me to say this but it has changed my life for the better. I now feel happier, motivated, focused, confident, and passionate about my studies and life. Whether you’re 16, a middle aged person, or in your late years of life, it truly never is too late to help yourself and nourish as an individual. 10/10

If Fabulous was working right, it would be a five star app. But it is not and has not been for about two weeks. It’s been glitching, not allowing me to access today’s list of goals and routines to check off. My daily coaching option that’s on my routines no longer brings anything up to play for the day and instead just has a list of activities you could bring up. I bought the lifetime subscription and I’m kicking myself for it now that nothing is working on it. I’ve been using Fabulous on and off for five years among varying devices without glitching issues and now all the sudden now that I’m on day 34 or so on my current journey, it’s just decided it no longer needs to work.
Another annoying thing is that if you forget to mark the things off as you’re doing them and decide to mark it off later, it doesn’t seem to count it the same as though you didn’t actually do anything but are just checking it off. I find this incredibly annoying. Not everyone has time to stare at their phone after every activity on their list and check it off. I’m a busy person. Some of us want to check it off later, that doesn’t mean we didn’t do it when we are supposed to. Good lord.
Also, I’ve had to uninstall and reinstall Fabulous several times just to get it to work. I shouldn’t have to do that. There’s plenty of space on my phone and everything else works fine. Why is Fabulous so glitchy?!

I downloaded Fabulous while on vacation in LA, and started using it and mostly liked it especially the Infograph’s and layout of Fabulous for the most part. It was mostly user friendly but there were some aspects that could have been more user friendly and streamlined. When I went back home to a different time zone, Fabulous did not appear to update with that new time zone since it still showed I was on day two of my progress but I was not actually on day 3. I deleted and downloaded it again, but it made me go through the entire set up page again. This is why the rating is so low! I couldn’t bypass this part and simply login again and when I went through and completed it, it overrode all of my progress and didn’t have any backup data saved (even though my phone had been previously connected to wifi for various days while using Fabulous ) I lost all my progress and don’t feel like starting over so I’m deleting it and moving on to something else. Hope they can get and issue like this figured out so people don’t have to be forced to go through a completely new set up each time they download Fabulous again.

Also save yourself time with going through that long survey for the live coaching, it’s not free and they wait to tell you until the very end. It’s $67. I wish they made that clear before having to go through that survey so if you didn’t want to pay for it you didn’t need to do the survey in the first place.

One of my biggest issues is feeling lost even tho my business gives me a sense of purpose I’m all alone in the basement and have no schedule. I always thought my life would be different. Now I know it’s up to me to execute the life I one day will have but not to worry about it or dwell on my past but literally just live day to day improving myself and loving myself and laughing and being grateful and giving each step of the way. That’s how you live. this app is helping me get some structure because I sort of just get lost sometimes not knowing when or how to accomplish things. Like do I really have to go to bank everyday? Lol no the adderal was doing much more harm than I thought and cutting out the toxic ppl feels so good. My phone can be a curse but it’s been directing and guiding me lately, I’m so out of touch w the world cuz I’ve kept myself so isolated all these years. Like Kanye, Taylor Swift they ha d issues to snd I’m not the only one lol I can’t believe I thought I was a bar person. I’m such a good person and I’m just feeling really happy anc hopeful . And it’s only day two . ❤️my friends Richard was my saving grace and I’ll always love him for that even tho I’m changing for me. So I can be the boss I was meant to be lol

This has been, so far, the most effective and life-altering app I have ever downloaded on my phone.
It’s easy to use, has beautiful design, is clearly very mindfully constructed with solid behavioral research backing up its structure… it just seems to have everything that all the other apps that I have tried didn’t have. I enjoy using it and it helps me make change enjoyable and easy- and that’s the only thing that works!

My only feedback for the designers/users would be 1. Slow down; even though the program cautions the user to not try and take on too many habits to quickly, by the end of the first month of using the programs/journey as directed you can easily have a ton of “new habits” you have to keep up in order to meet your daily goals and it’s too much. 2. The support circles are kind of open message boards that any this app user can participate in and it’s too chaotic to feel inviting. There are other apps that I have used where people are put into small groups with moderators, and/or work with personal coaches. That I know that would make Fabulous cost quite a lot more because it would have to be employ human beings to act as moderators or coaches, that to me would be the next level up.

I just got Fabulous this morning so I’m basing my rating on user friendliness/ set up/ and its ability to hold my attention. Fabulous kept me going, probably one of the easiest apps I’ve set up, definitely one of the fastest. Some apps can be work in just filling out the info but, Fabulous was smooth & explained things clearly. I’m looking forward to seeing how this goes. I need something motivating in my life right now and I’m hoping this does the trick. I had always been a very disciplined, driven, fun, outspoken, and in great shape but, the last 18 mos~things have become very difficult for me. I had several big surgeries which left me in lots of pain but this pain is nothing compared to the pain in my heart... after loosing 3 loving people in our family. As my dad use to say... “Life happens kiddo”, but it seems I let it go on w/o me. I’m really hoping to find my fire again and hoping it’s as easy as finding Fabulous~ something tells me... it’s not. All life’s greatest things~take work and I’m now desperate & willing~ just need reminders to keep going and I hope Fabulous is a piece of the puzzle which makes the difficult times bearable. So, I plan on updating this review a few times, as I embark on my journey to become the once driven person I was~
so until then...

I can’t say enough about Fabulous. I’ve been in therapy for years for some losses etc. I’ve currently been enrolled in a DBT course,8 weeks to get through 4modules. You can’t reach knowledge or gain enough practice to be great at this in one course. Fabulous you have here is the perfect in between classes to work with as extra coping mechanisms.. it brings in soooo much helpful information for personal care and development. It’s very easy to use. For me, it is not overwhelming, you can do as much or as little as you want during the 3 parts of your days. It has given me more practice in becoming one mindful where everybody should learn. This mindfulness can be done in 5 minutes or less or longer. It’s giving your mind a break. Instead of racing around thoughts, you learn to focus and remain calm. The meditations here are very easy to sit back and listen. I’ve even been so relaxed I fell asleep which is very hard for me to do. It has done wonders in just these few days to work with your app. I love the challenges! I also like the way you can choose what you want for your daily routine. If what you offer isn’t enough you provide a way for us to add our own routines in, if it’s not working on the list. Thank you so much for offering this this app app.

During the 7 day trial I found myself making better habits to help myself out during the day especially my morning routine. I work a night shift and have to balance out my day accordingly but Fabulous really helped me with that with the alerts for something that used to escapes my mind early in the morning, which is to drink water it became a great habit I developed even when I’m off of work I still wake up and drink water which keeps me on the same schedule. With all the options for: the morning, afternoon, and evening routines, it’s getting a little used to but none the less I’m gaining better habits to help me throughout my day. I can say I appreciate Fabulous and look forward to gaining my life back with healthier decisions. The only bad thing I can say about Fabulous is when you mark that you did an activity that you did not complete, Fabulous won’t allow you to undo that you completed it, so for someone like me who is openly honest about what I do, it will get a little frustrating to know you didn’t complete that goal for that day but everything else on Fabulous is great and to me life saving. Thank you ^_^ for helping people change their lives in gaming better habits in just a few days.

The old me wouldn’t believe that an app could change her life so much, but in truth, Fabulous has made a huge impact on my daily life. Before this app, I would wake up 10 minutes before I had to leave in the morning. I never ate breakfast, I didn’t make my bed or clean my room, I almost never had enough time to wash my face, and to be quite honest, I didn’t always remember brush my teeth. And it wasn’t just in the mornings that I struggled. During the day, I would hardly ever exercise outside of activities I needed to do, and overall I wasn’t making time for myself.
Now, because of this app, I have routines that I follow each morning, noon, and night that I customized to fit my interests and time schedule. I always remember to brush my teeth btw, along with many other things I used to struggle to do, and I’ve become more aware of my feelings, and my goals. I even feel that I have become more ambitious. I’m honestly super glad I got Fabulous, and not only that, but I also highly recommend paying for the subscription. Through that, I got access to meditational practices, the ability to customize my routine, start new interests, and build many new habits besides the first sets. I just want to say, thank you so much for creating Fabulous!

I have been using this app since it’s beginning stages (2016). More than an app: it is guidance for life success! If you really want to change your life, this app is the BEST! Many apps & programs have come along for developing habits that can “either make you or break you”, in the words of Stephen Covey. ONLY this app combines the basics of proven behavior change with beautiful inspiration to empower real life transformation! They provide detailed guidance specific to the area you want to make changes & almost intuitive direction for your progression (because we are unique & similar). Start with foundations and quickly advance to the mountain-tops! Each step takes you closer to the success you want: step by step. It seems too easy at first. Don’t follow the temptation to hurry past the easy stuff; step by step is the solid foundation for success in any area you want to develop. Then build on your new or renewed foundation to change your health, business, relationships, & more! Free, but Well worth the cost for the Premium perks, because this app didn’t stop with its inception. this app keeps researching, developing, & providing the best: Our success is their success… it’s habit forming ;) BJ

Tried Fabulous last year and didn’t find it all that motivating. No worries…everyone has their preferences. Forgot to cancel before my free 30 day trial was up. No worries…that’s on me. But I made sure to go in and cancel right away so I wouldn’t make the same mistake again. Imagine my surprise when I started getting ‘payment failed’ emails after the one year anniversary of the expiration of my free trial. Like, enough emails to be considered harassment. So finally, I responded to one of them and reminded them that they did not have an active credit card on file because I was no longer an active account holder. I received an automatic response saying how much they value me as a customer and they’ll try to get back to me as soon as they can, but they’re super busy. No worries - they can never get back to me as far as I’m concerned - the whole point of my email was that I was trying to get them to STOP contacting me. SOOO…imagine my surprise when I checked my credit card statement today and found that a week after my email that they were too busy to respond to, they MIRACULOUSLY found my credit card information and charged my account for another year!!! NOT this app. SNEAKY and UNETHICAL!! Oh, and if you’re wondering if they ever responded to my email…they did not. Too busy looking for my unauthorized credit card information, I imagine. So, unless you want a lifelong relationship with this company, I cannot advise signing up.

So the path of slow and steady incremental changes makes a ton of sense. The kinds of tasks it seems like Fabulous orients on, also seem well founded and useful. However, the way you interact with Fabulous itself to achieve those ends is so confusing and unintuitive to me. There’s no one place to look at what I’ve achieved or how I’m doing, or which goals I might choose. Even after using it for a few days, I’m still unsure of where to find any succinct information or even which buttons I should be pressing. In addition, the way it offers me the option to make goals and follow up with those goals just doesn’t match the natural way I make decisions or the flow of my day.
For example, I’d see the notification to drink water with bleary eyes immediately after waking up, but before my brain can comprehend. Then it disappears into the fog of slowly waking. This morning, I finally did get myself to immediately open Fabulous and log that I drank water, then it promptly opened a loud animated cut scene which was pretty annoying for me, but even more annoying for the person asleep next to me. I hastily closed the whole thing.
I’d really like to utilize the set of slow and consistent reminders that seem to be at the heart of Fabulous, but what does it matter if I can’t actually figure out how to use it? Frankly, every time I open Fabulous I eventually just angrily close it, and am left feeling frustrated. I’d never pay for it.

I used to live my ~dream~ life and I had my set of habits that worked. I was always in a great space and nothing could have brought me down. Then I moved away for college. The freshman 15 happened and I just went up from there, I started sleeping later and waking up later, and I lost focus of the habits that made me happy. Since then I’ve been trying to get the motivation or the will to do the things I love and I always feel the need to start it all at once which is difficult and unrealistic. Bit Fabulous has made that more of a reality. I might get a later start to my day since I’m still just trying but the practices and talks on Fabulous, the realization that motivation isn’t real you just have to do, and the checklist all give me the push necessary to bettering me and my daily life. Honestly, can’t really find the words to describe it but try the free trial and see if it works for you. Personally, I used it once and didn’t really understand it, forgot to cancel my trial and here we are. Best accident to happen yet. But you have to want it and be willing to really make some changes or it’s not going to work. this app is just a tool, it’s up to you whether or not you use it.

I have found myself off track & wandering through life after a few years of retirement and then a great deal of personal loss. 2018 resolutions were filled with hopes of finding something to restore some normalcy to my life; that reading a good book in front of the fire on a rainy day kind of normalcy. I had already made the commitments to weight & fitness long before resolution season & they were going fairly well. I just happened across the this app app when I was in Fabulous Store looking for a To Do list app. It has truly been the answer to what I’ve been looking for, although I had no way of knowing for what I was searching. this app is taking me back to the basics, and teaching me how to instill habits again, something I had unknowingly given up. Having this structure is giving me something to lean on as I begin to learn how to be myself again, after so much sadness and misery. Thank you this app developers for creating such an innovative program to help those of us that have derailed. One thing, I did sign up for their upgraded program, Sphere, and it was just too much for me to take in. Maybe later but for now I will let this app take care of my needs!! I am this app after all!!

Thank you so much for making Fabulous! I am very impressed that even though there are Premium perks that require a subscription, there is a wide variety of options that Standard users have to choose from. Coming from someone who would go straight to the “Most Critical” reviews to see if Fabulous was legit, I’m so happy I have this app a chance! I also love how it is Apple Watch compatible! My one bit of negative feedback is that it would be so much better if you could put the workouts, yoga, and meditations accessible on the Watch app (in the same way that you swipe down on an activity on the iOS app to access workouts). For example, if workouts were set as an activity, you could start this app Moment and swipe down, and there would be workouts listed for you to choose from. (Not only workouts, yoga and meditation sessions would be absolutely wonderful on the watch) If that was available, it would make my experience so much better (Than it already is!). Otherwise, I love the design of Fabulous . Simple and easy to use, but beautifully made. Keep up the great work!

This company is in the business of stealing people’s money. Not only is their app ridiculously expensive, they don’t offer refunds for accidental auto renewal, or if you did not like Fabulous . EVERY other company I have ever had experience with will offer refunds if you are not happy with their service, if it did not meet your expectations, and especially if you were accidentally paying for an app for an entire year beyond when you ever even opened Fabulous . It is clear to me that they cannot afford to be in this business if they are going to rob their customers of their money when they aren’t happy with the service. Again, I have experience with many many apps and services and everytime I have asked for a refund I get it, no. questions. asked. The fact that this company has the audacity to tell me they are keeping my money when I don’t even have Fabulous still downloaded on my phone is mind blowing to me. Get out of this business, you aren’t helping people, you are robbing me. My auto renewal was on Dec 30th and I emailed them days later. they are keeping my money for the entire 2020 year. I could understand if they maybe kept one month but refunded me the rest but to keep this ENTIRE year of my money when I’ve been very clear with them I am not using Fabulous is just ridiculous. Do not support this company, they clearly do not care about their customers whatsoever.

My annual subscription for Fabulous is about to expire and even though I kept up with it for the better part of the year, I’m not going to renew. Fabulous utilizes some great techniques for motivation and accountability but it ultimately dogs itself down with too much content. It is constantly putting more and more information in your face about things to read and new challenges to accomplish and so on. It’s not abnormal to open Fabulous in the morning to begin my morning routine and be confronted by two or three messages that I have to swipe away or close out of or decline just in order to use Fabulous . Every time you finish a routine, which it encourages you to have three routines in a day (morning, afternoon, evening), it loads a motivational picture that you then must click out of to use Fabulous again, and you have to wait a few seconds for it to even be close-able. I don’t need three motivational messages a day. So all in all, Fabulous could benefit from simplifying its UI and content a bit. Being encouraged occasionally with small messages or goals or streaks along the way would be helpful, or at least the ability to customize or opt out of most of these features. Maybe I’ll check back in a few years.

Love Fabulous. I would suggest three things: 1) Shorter letters and communications. You’re writing books and no one has time for that. I would value the insights, but I lose interest due to the length. 2) Enable the timers to always function whether the phone is locked or in other apps. It seems to work sometimes when unlocked and in other apps, but you can’t expect users who want the timer to always have their phone unlocked and Fabulous open. The notification features can remind between habits. Because Fabulous doesn’t do this, I can get off track. 3) Go easy on the asking for commitments. Feels like a cult. I think you already have the “accept challenge” which is an action to begin a journey and it’s what I view as a commitment. I think signing a certificate virtually on another site that doesn’t look linked to this app or Duke is overkill and I don’t understand what you’re doing with that data.

Thanks for creating this! Fabulous has become a coach and companion for me. Though I have suggestions, know it’s wonderful what you’ve done.

Idk who they paid to get such great reviews but it is a straight up scam I can’t wait till this expires off my phone so I don’t have to cringe seeing that I paid almost $50 for a year membership that I had no idea I was buying and never wanted with NO support to complain too - constant ads to upgrade that are disguised as part of whatever this thing is trying to do “better your life “ - im afraid to even look at it or it might resubscribe me !! I deleted it from my phone a long time ago and unsubscribed it after the first $40 charge and then when I switched phones it somehow resubscribed me !!! I hate Fabulous so much it’s like an evil evil possessed money sucking virus
It says u shouldn’t be worried about how much it costs since it is going to change your life then they trick u into pushing different buttons without prices on them so u have to really pay attention to all their sneaky scam ways - maybe they have changed since a year ago when I first got duped but I doubt it - typical snake oil sales pitch taking advantage of people who are trying to improve themselves in the first place . Really disappointed with these types of apps they could do good but instead they choose to target people when they are vulnerable . More of the greed based capitalist marketing schemes we have all come to know and loathe.

I’m dealing with an as-yet-undiagnosed health issue. I suffer from a range of issues that have prevented me from doing much of anything - constant fatigue, vertigo, pain, migraines, and more. I also suffer from depression and anxiety. Along with getting a new therapist, I downloaded Fabulous. It’s changed my life. I’m still not well physically, but I’m able to organize my thoughts and my day to a point where I can actually take better care of myself and take advantage of rare moments of energy to get things done. This this app app is like having a personal assistant, cheerleader, life coach, and friend all rolled into one on your phone. It starts off small and easy which is perfect for someone who gets overwhelmed easily like me. Instead of feeling like my daily rituals are just more chores I have, it’s more like a way I show I love and care for myself. I look forward to those moments throughout the day to take care of me. I couldn’t be happier with Fabulous. I’d give it more than 5 stars if that were possible.

Fabulous has helped me pin down a routine not only for myself but also with a routine for my two homeschool children. I have a lot to wrap my head around while getting my degree and a certification but with this app it has helped me be the mom I want to be for my kids while being a successful student. I thought I needed a tutor but I really just needed some this app help. If you’re looking for a helping hand to start you off slow and gradually help you lessen your stress. The first day where you drink water JUST DO IT OKAY DON’T FIGHT IT JUST DO IT it’s a tiny routine you build on not a mountainside to devour in one day it’s going to take time.

I took away one star because although I feel this application is great tool to use I do feel that it isn’t as affordable as it could be. Helping people get on a routine and lessen stress in their life should be something everyone should be able to get. Maybe there could be an option to donate for others a subscription? Lastly every time I complete a routine it takes you through this sharing process with a quote and a picture and another picture and after a few days it’s obnoxious.

I’m sorry, I don’t want to see a purple haired woman on a magic carpet when I eat breakfast. Wish I could have been a fly on the wall when the concept art was presented. It entirely doesn’t go with any of Fabulous at all. If a dev happens to see this, a small part of why wellness apps like headspace are so widely popular is because they have a minimal, unique (but still fun!) look and feel that draws people in. Those visuals have a purpose too, they’re meant to calm the user and communicate a story. Purple haired girl does none of this. Weird letter reading VO does none of this. It’s distracting and strange.

The entire UX is a mess as well. There’s so many menus, choices, letters, buttons etc if Fabulous is all about simplicity and not overwhelming the user with information to process. It’s unfortunately clear that whoever art directed this was non-existent or inexperienced. UX designers are not app developers. If you expect folks to pay $50 a year, these details really matter.

Fabulous seems great other than that, but I just wish it had a simpler, more calming look and feel. (Because it’s meant to be a simple and calming app???) I couldn’t ever recommend it to anyone because it feels so cheap.

I am not a person of habits or routine. Usually, sleep through a few alarms, wake up frantic and fly out the door with food in my mouth, brush my teeth in the car on the way to work and am lucky to be on time. Since I started this journey with Fabulous it helps me start small on things I can accomplish to build a more positive view on something of a routine.
Being me, first I loaded a morning routine of way too many items. “If I’m going to do this I should go big!” Nope, not recommended by me or Fabulous . (I’m not the best listener either).
I am now 3 months in to the journey and really see the value. They have great articles, good challenges and don’t beat you up if you skip an afternoon session or a weekend on vacation (which is kinda silly to skip because it’s really just a matter of checking of a list of healthy things).
If you are a hot mess express like me, I think you will enjoy this very much!
If you are winning at the game of adulting, this will have some next level challenges and goals for you. Try it out!

I downloaded the this app app not long after I finished reading Charles Duhigg’s “The Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business.” Habit is the key to making lasting changes in behavior, and the this app app is built on that simple fact. Step-by-step it introduces habits into every area of a daily routine, each one reinforcing the next, building success one habit at a time.

Fabulous ’s genius is the series of “journeys” it leads you through tackling common problem areas like sleep habits, exercise habits, and food habits. Whole Day 1 was as simple as putting a glass of water next to my bed before sleep, just a few months later I was hopping on my exercise bike every morning! All along the way, Fabulous was sequencing a set of “letters,” each containing information, encouragement, and insight into the science of behavioral change, timed to arrive right when I needed them.

If you’re already thinking about New Year’s resolutions, but worry that this year’s will just be another false start, the this app app is for you! #highlyrecommend
