πŸ‘‹ Hi Product Hunters! Together with my friends @floriangehle, @hossein_yousefi, @mrmoradi, and @rafoolin, I'm building identi. And it's a super exciting and frightening day for us to share it with you! πŸ‘€ We're serial habit quitters and power procrastinators ourselves... πŸ₯΄πŸ˜… After trying >30 different habit trackers and still failing to stick to our meditation, exercise, or reading habit for longer than two weeks, we decided that tracking just isn't enough. That's where James Clear sparked an idea that was sleeping in the back of my head for some time by saying: "One of the most effective ways to build a new habit is to join a group where your desired behavior is the normal behavior." We're social beings and, as such, can get a ton of value from knowing that others are following our progress, holding us accountable, and making progress themselves. So that's why we got together to build "The Social Network for Habit Builders." πŸ™Œ A social network that isn't about showing off what you own or where you can afford to travel. identi is for people that strive for real connections with like-minded peers. A social network that's about supporting each other, celebrating each other's progress, and inspiring each other to become the best version of ourselves. πŸ¦„ All this time working on identi, we've been fueled by the vision that we could be building something that is bringing people together while helping them to finally do the things they wanted to do for soooo long… And please get in touch if you (or someone you know) would like to create a tribe. 🀝

@floriangehle @hossein_yousefi @mrmoradi @rafoolin @maurice_alexander_holtus This is really a brilliant initiative. Society tends to turn towards the wrong side. All we need is support and like minded people to grow and follow good habits, which identi is doing outstandingly! Being already on Quora, Commaful etc., I would ove to be a part of your initiative :-)

@peter_griscom Thanks Peter, congratulations on your launch as well!
Maurice Alexander Holtus
Thank you, @peter_griscom! πŸ™ Hope to see your check-ins the feed soon! What would be a first habit you'd like to focus on?
Yaroslava Antipina πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦
Congratulation on your launch! I will try identi for sure. Will give you feedback. Your idea is cool anyway!
Maurice Alexander Holtus
@yaroslava Thank you πŸ™ Really looking forward to your feedback!

@maurice_alexander_holtus I've downloaded the app. It's easy to use & I love onboarding with all these questions & habits suggestions, it's awesome. But all my habits preferences have disappeared or I don't know where to find them. Naturally, they should be listed in sections Work, Body, Soul, Mind. So there's a little mess for me how to use app properly.
Hossein Yousefi
@maurice_alexander_holtus @yaroslava Something wrong happened during your onboarding causing the habits not to be saved. Please close the app completely (by closing it from the multitasking) and open it again to trigger the onboarding flow again. We're sorry about the inconvenience, we're working to fix the underlying issue. Let me know if this fixes your problem.
Yaroslava Antipina πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦
@maurice_alexander_holtus @hosseinyousefi yeah, it has worked. Thank you! By the way, are there any chances to add my own habits in the categories? I'd love to)
Maurice Alexander Holtus
@yaroslava Happy to hear that it worked! πŸš€ Yes, you can absolutely add your own habits! Just go to the search page and tap on "Create Custom Habit." Let me know if there's anything else that's not clear yet so that we can improve it in our future updates.
Galia
Wow this is SUPER cool, can we interact with other users and see what their habits are?
Maurice Alexander Holtus
Really happy you like it, @galia1999! πŸ₯³ To answer your question: YES! This is exactly what identi is about! - You can follow other like-minded habit builders, invite your friends, join tribes, and much more. - You can see exactly which (public) habits other users are building - You can adopt their habits to compare your progress - You can hold each other accountable - You can see others' progress in our Instagram-like feed and comment on their posts to cheer them up or ask questions ...and much more. Hope that you'll check it out! See you on identi πŸ˜‰

@maurice_alexander_holtus @galia1999 Glad you liked it! Looking forward to see your check-ins in the feed.

This looks dope! Since reading Atomic Habits, I've been looking for a habit tracker that uses some of these scientific insights to help me stick to habits. Seems like I found one 😁 I really like the accountability feature but to I have to pay for it?
Maurice Alexander Holtus
Thank you, @lennart_herbst! πŸ™ We're big fans of Atomic Habits ourselves and it really influenced our decision to build identi. The accountability features are free! Besides all of the social network features of identi (which are also free), you can add unlimited approvers for free to send them proof photos. Like that, you'll only collect your streak and points for the day, if your accountability partner approved your check-in photo.

@maurice_alexander_holtus Thatβ€˜s amazing! Thanks @maurice_alexander_holtus πŸ™πŸΌ
Satyendra Sahani
Congrats on the Launch @maurice_alexander_holtus Any special feature to get up in the morning. Badly needed :D
Florian Gehle
@satyendra_sahani Thanks a lot! Funny that you mention that use case since this is the number one thing I track on identi. I added @maurice_alexander_holtus as my approver so that he holds me accountable for that. Works like a charm so far :D This is how it looks:
Satyendra Sahani
@maurice_alexander_holtus @florian_gehle I ll be your power user then. Downloading right away. Thanks
Maurice Alexander Holtus
Amazing! @satyendra_sahani Looking forward to being your accountability partner! 🀝
Satyendra Sahani
@maurice_alexander_holtus :D see you there.

πŸ€” What's a tribe that helped you build good habits in the past?
Ak.sure
@maurice_alexander_holtus When learning something new I try to see what industry experts are doing and then read as much as possible! Excited to try out identi. I like the collaboratie approve to motivation.
Maurice Alexander Holtus
@aksure I normally follow the same approach. Who knows, maybe you'll already find an interesting Tribe Leader like Rob, Huwaida, Anita, or Albert on identi who are absolute experts in their craft. And please let me know about any ideas on how we can further improve identi. πŸ™
Naomi Kalra
OMG this is perfect! 🀩 My sister and I don't live together anymore and we have been trying to coordinate a system to keep each other accountable for our shared goals but couldn't agree on an app or method. This looks like a perfect low-friction, fun way to see what we've accomplished! I just signed up and am going to send the app to her too. Thank you for building this! πŸ˜„
Maurice Alexander Holtus
What a wonderful use case, @naomiswk! Let me know if there's anything we could improve to make building habits together even more enjoyable for you and your sister! 😊
Naomi Kalra
@maurice_alexander_holtus Of course! We will use it for a bit and I'll be glad to share any feedback we have! Would love to see you guys make this an even more awesome collaborative habit tracking app! Best of luck btw! ☺️
Maurice Alexander Holtus
@naomiswk Thank you, we're already working hard on the next big improvements. Stay tuned and please share your feedback with me 😊 πŸ™
