This might be better than all my notebook tracking I've been doing and the added functions of Trello. Congrats on the launch, tell me about your data security angle?
Kelvin Angstrom
@jacquesvh Thanks so much! Glad you like it. All your data is secured by Google Firebase. Ping me an email at kelvin@angstrom.life and I'll go into as much detail as you would like.

@angstrom @kelvinangstrom Thanks. I'll give it a go, hoping to see the extended apps out soon.
Falko Moeller
Hello @kelvinangstrom! Great job! Looks really promising! Hope this will be available as native app as well soon.
Kelvin Angstrom
@_productgeek Hi Falko... Thanks very much! I have the Mac desktop app working pretty well already. I use it everyday myself. There is still a bit of work left to do though. It will be available for Mac, Windows and Linux. I wouldn't like to put an ETA on it just yet. Do you mind if I ask how you felt about the onboarding? Others seem to have felt it was a bit much and others really liked it.
Falko Moeller
Hi @kelvinangstrom, I think the onboarding was niceley done. The only thing I'd change is to make it non-mandatory/skipable.
Franco Sun
Great idea! I may end up moving my system from Evernote here, but need to try for a period of time. I might need a more comprehensive tutorial on how to use backlog and stuff. Another question is what if multiple milestone has a shared task, or a milestone contributes to multiple lifegoals?
Kelvin Angstrom
@francox9 Thanks Franco! You're right, the help text is a bit light at the moment. I plan on making a video tutorial for each page. At the moment neither of your two questions are doable. However, it would be a really easy change for me to make. I would like for a few others to want the same thing though before implementing it. Cheers!

I'm also a frontend dev(I guess you are too), and I enjoy the UI. Just a few: 1, You might want to set user-select: none to many places 2, I really would like to select a type at the "new" dialog window, before the modal comes out
Franco Sun
Anyway. I really like this. Thank you Kelvin
Kelvin Angstrom
@francox9 I'm actually not a frontend dev. It has been a steep learning curve. I'll definitely have a think about that. Thanks for the feedback!

Quick question: on the landing page there is an information about 60% discount. Are the prices already discounted when I log in?
Kelvin Angstrom
@krzesimir_ostrowski No they're not discounted when you login. There's a discount code at the top of the pricing page when you login. You apply that code during the checkout. Actually, here's the code if it's easier: "ProductHunt60"
Kelvin Angstrom
@krzesimir_ostrowski BTW. If you have already paid and didn't see the discount code for whatever reason, I'll happily refund the difference.
Krzesimir
@kelvinangstrom thanks a lot for clearing this up! I might be doing something wrong, but I don't see this code anywhere in the pricing page or anywhere else in the settings.
Kelvin Angstrom
@krzesimir_ostrowski Very sorry about that. I can't see a problem in general. I just checked and everyone that has purchased today has used the code. I will monitor it and proactively refund the difference to anyone that has the same problem as yourself.

Absolutely comprehensive and something I want. As a freelancer and student, I need something like this. I'll try and write feedback here too. You might be a lifesaver, Kelvin. Thank you.
Kelvin Angstrom
@imbarisz Thank you so much :) Please do leave some more feedback. Glad you like it so far!

This is very good. I've been annoyed by all collaboration features when looking at any management tool. I like this product that introduces zero collaboration as a concept. And it is a good insight that it'd be enabled to integrate user's career parts and personal parts because it has eliminated the collaboration part, and the attempt to actively use the insight is also impressive. One thing I am sorry about is pricing. Is not there a monthly payment in the plan? (I ask because I have no money.)
Kelvin Angstrom
@sungho Thank you for your thoughtful comment. Really appreciate it. My initial heading on the website was "Absolutely zero collaboration project management" because I did think that it was a strong differentiator and not having collaboration can be a plus in some circumstances. You won't ever fear that you might accidentally share your private life goals. Did you have a look at the Ambassador plan? You can get all the features for free if you share with others.
Paul Danyliuk
@sungho @kelvinangstrom Yeah, and I dissuaded you from using that value prop, lol. I thought that one was pretty unclear for understanding what the product was about at a glance. Maybe it was a wrong call?

I love everything about this. Congrats on the launch. Looking forward to diving in. You're really onto something here.
Kelvin Angstrom
@zedsq Thank you so much! Your comment put a big smile on my face :)

@kelvinangstrom you've earned it my friend.
Freddie Llow
hmm gotta try this
Kelvin Angstrom
Please do @freddiellow Love to hear any feedback you have on it.

Probably causes some duplication with work tasks if using also Trello or GH issues at the same time?

Pros:

Nice holistic approach on the life/work goals & tasks Good UX

Cons:

It could be easier to find the "mark task as done" button. I finally found it :-)

Krzesimir
Sooo... where did you find this button? 😂 I still can't find it!
Sam
I gotta say, I love this and would absolutely love to try it out, but it's quite expensive and the free trial doesn't offer much. I'm not sure if the users will be convinced by the minimal features that are included in the free trial. Nonetheless I'm definitely going to try it out soon. Nice work Kelvin!
Kelvin Angstrom
@recon Thanks for the feedback Sam! There is a balance to be struck there with how much functionality to have in the free plan. I honestly don't know where the line should be yet. What I did do though to somewhat address the cost was to add the "Ambassador plan". Did you see that? Basically you can get all features for free if you can get some friends to signup. Your friends all get a $10 discount if they decide to purchase for themselves.
Sam
@kelvinangstrom Oh I didn't realise it was just on signup, it seemed to me like they all had to purchase a plan. I'll definitely get some mates to join up while I'm having a look 👀. On the other hand, I agree, balancing a free accounts features is difficult, but for such a feature rich app like this I'd definitely add some of the more basic things to the plan, and possibly restrict some features (only so many habits can be done, routine can only be this long, etc). Best of luck on the indiehacker path!
Kelvin Angstrom
@recon Thanks Sam! I'll try and figure out how to clear up that confusion around the Ambassador plan. I'm sure there's a way.
