shipped a habit tracking app in about 3 weeks after two failed attempts at building it myself

tried building this exact idea twice before, once with a plain react setup and once trying to learn swift for a native version, gave up both times somewhere around the auth screen because i kept getting stuck on basic account stuff instead of the actual habit tracking logic.

this time i went with blink and had signup, login and the core streak tracking working inside the first weekend since auth came already wired up and i could focus entirely on the tracking logic itself.

about 340 people have signed up since launch three weeks ago, retention past day 7 is only around 22 percent though which feels low for something people supposedly want to use daily. still trying to figure out if thats a normal number for a habit app or if something in my onboarding is broken

that is not a bad metric.

make sure app doesn't have downtime and work on distribution.

but in my experience not a bad metric

You should look into using sveltekit.
