People are actually using my app which is built around the 12 week year method

I have built an app and people are actually using it in their daily lives. The app helps people achieve goals using a method based on the 12 Week Year and Atomic Habits.

After two weeks it is slowly gaining some traction. It's not viral, but it proves the app provides real value to users, which makes me genuinely happy. 

The app is called capria. The method is simple:

  • Set your goal. Pick a period between 1 and 12 weeks. Think of it as a sprint which is short enough to stay focused and long enough to make real progress. Chop it into daily tasks you need to do to achieve your goal. 
  • The app will track and score your progress. Every task you check off or fail to check off gets scored. For me a low score is motivation to push harder and actually do things and a high score gives me the energy to continue and maintain the high score. 
  • Around this system I built three daily habits. Begin your day by planning it: decide your 3 must-get-done items, so you don't have to decide during the day. Then focus on those during the day. And end your day by reflecting on it. Then simply repeat.

It’s such a great feeling to see that the app is actually helping people with their goals.

If you're interested, I would love for you to try it:  https://apps.apple.com/nl/app/capria-goal-habit-coach/id6784559190 

Any feedback or roast is more than welcome.

The method that helps me to achieve my goals

Earlier in my career, everything ran on other people’s deadlines. Clients, colleagues, targets. I was good at hitting every goal that someone else set for me, and I had almost none of my own. The years went by like that.

A few years ago I started trying to change it. The method is simple. You work in short cycles of about twelve weeks instead of vague yearly goals. You set the goal, then break it into the specific tasks it takes each day and week to actually get there. And you build a small daily rhythm around it: in the morning you plan what you will do that day, during the day you focus on it, and in the evening you look back at how it went.

The part that made the difference for me is the scoring. At the end of each week you count what you planned against what you did, so a bad week is visible instead of vague. A high score keeps you going, a low one is impossible to ignore.

I ran the whole thing in a spreadsheet for a year before turning it into an app, mostly because tracking it by hand got tedious. I cannot really code, so I built it with AI.

It is called capria, and it just went live. It is early and iOS only. If it speaks to anyone here, I would genuinely value honest feedback, the more critical the better.

capria is now available on the App Store: https://apps.apple.com/nl/app/capria/id6784559190
