At its heart, what I’ve always liked most about Streaks is its simplicity. It’s fun to look back at my review of Streaks 1.0 and see how far the app has come in almost five years. Finally, there are new shortcut actions for sending an immediate reminder about a task and saving exported data to a specified location. The app’s integration with the Health app has been upgraded with more tasks that can write to Health and the ability to convert certain tasks to health tasks and back. Streaks has added support for hand washing, ECG, and energy deficit tasks along with new dietary health tasks. Tasks can now include week-long items, and timer notifications can be set for a period before a timer ends or a period after it starts. The update adds several other updates to tasks and a couple of new shortcut actions too. Whatever the reason, though, the experience of using Streaks on the iPad is greatly improved by Split View and Slide Over.
This is long overdue, although I wouldn’t be surprised if the vast majority of people use Streaks on their iPhones, making adoption of these iPad features a low priority. I’m happy to report that Streaks now supports Split View and Slide Over on the iPad too. At first, I didn’t think the animation rotated the view along its center axis as I expected, but I think that’s an illusion created by the iPhone’s notch. Previously, you had to tap on the six-dot icon at the bottom of the screen. With the library, users can pick something close to what meets their needs and use it as a starting point for customizing the face further.įrom a design standpoint, the iPhone version of Streaks now allows you to flip from page one to page two of the habits you track with a swipe. It makes it simple for users to get started with Streaks’ Watch app and removes the fiddling and indecision about which complications to pick. CARROT Weather does something similar, and I’m glad to see other apps are too. The app also includes a library of seven watch faces that you can instantly add to your Watch from Streaks’ settings. Streaks has also adopted watchOS 7s complication system, allowing you to add as many Streaks complications as there are slots on a watch face.
