I’ve recently launched my first app - a native iOS/macOS app called ExcellGrowth. I’d really welcome feedback from the WIP community on it.

The app is a combination of goal / habit planner, journal, progress dashboard and problem solver - designed to help people working on challenging new growth projects and seeking ways to improve performance.

The core problem the app tries to solve: helping people make more progress on the challenging aspirations that matter most to them e.g. launch/grow a new business, develop a new product/service, improve your personal best in your chosen sport, get promoted, get a key qualification, design & build a new home, …

The idea came from doing lots of work with organisations and people undertaking major change and transformation. I’ve tried to bake in proven ideas I’ve learned from effective change management into the app, to make them available to more people.

I used the app to help develop the app, and it fitted nicely in my productivity stack alongside Things/Apple Reminders (for tactical tasks), Fantastical (for time blocking) and Apple Notes (for more detailed notes and resources).

I think the things that make the app distinctive are integrated features to smoothly manage a workflow around: 

- managing a focused set of “discovery” goals where you capture learning

- embedding new habits / link them to goals
- using a journal to capture progress and insights, on both goals & habits
- capturing insights on where things are off track, and act on them
- defining and problem solving obstacles to progress
- accessing supporting resources (at excellgrowth.com/resources)


Thanks for any feedback on:
- Concept
- Feature set
- Anything else you think could make the app better
