Hey guys, first post here! Built an app called Ban It for quitting bad habits (scroll, vaping, drinking, whatever). The streak counter worked fine but people dropped off once the novelty wore off same problem every habit app has. So I tried something different: a head-to-head mode. You earn gems from keeping your streak, then stake them against a friend, whoever holds their streak longest takes the pot and people relapse a lot less when there's a rival watching and something on the line. Still early and figuring out the balance (mainly stopping people from gaming it), but the accountability-through-competition angle is converting way better than solo streaks did. Would love feedback, does the wager mechanic read as fun or gimmicky to you? And has anyone solved the retention cliff on streak apps a different way?   submitted by   /u/Holiday_Main_7263 [link]   [comments]
