Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

MindManager

  • Actual prices are not displayed on the pricing page despite having a clear tier structure
  • Enterprise plan requires contacting sales for quote
  • Specific annual subscription rates are not shown on public pages

Streaks

  • It is iOS and Apple Watch only, with no Android version, so it is not usable for anyone outside Apple's ecosystem.
  • The base app caps at 24 tracked habits, which is enough for most users but a real limit for anyone wanting to track a larger number of items.
  • Sync is via iCloud only, so there is no web or cross-platform account, which limits use to Apple devices exclusively.
  • It has fewer social or accountability features, such as shared habit tracking with friends, compared with some subscription-based competitors.
  • A single lifetime purchase means no ongoing development revenue tied to the individual user, so it depends on new sales and occasional priced major updates rather than recurring income to fund development.
