heromode can help you stay away from bad habits
Summary

HeroMode can be used in many different ways. In today's post, I describe how I use HeroMode to break my Reddit habit. These are the steps I took:

  • Creating an Adventure called "Bye bye Reddit"
  • Within this Adventure, set up a daily repeat quest for "No Reddit today"
  • I used to browse Reddit most heavily at night, so I have this repeat quest automatically created at 10pm each day
  • Each day, I try to complete the quest of "No Reddit today"
  • With Activity Calendar and Streak, I have been able to stay away from Reddit over the last few months!

a new feature is coming soon to heromode: expired quests
Summary

We have added Expired Quests to HeroMode!

With this new functionality, you can mark a quest as expired instead of deleting it. For example, for a quest that you just can't get to, and you'd like to keep it in the record and track the stats.

Expired Quests, along with other updates on Stats and Activity Calendars, will be available in the next release!
