Bad Habit: Quit habit - does not update

Bug Report

The app is not saving when a quit habit is marked as 'completed.' In this case, another term should appear to describe it—'unsuccessful,' for example. However, the streak remains unchanged even when the habit was logged."

    Hi @Rui Monopolis Manufaktura !

    When tracking a bad habit with goal as "Quit this habit":

    • If you don't do it, you mark it done with button “Succeed", and the streak is extended.

    • If you do it, you mark it as failed, and the streak is broken.

    As we understand your post, you log the progress value to your bad habit to quit a habit and the habit is still marked as succeeded, right?

      I wasn’t sure, but I assumed that simply clicking to complete this habit would automatically be interpreted as a fail—since it's a habit I'm trying to quit. But explicitly marking it as a fail also works. Thanks!

      Not sure, but I’d suggest using "Fail" as the default for Quit habits instead of "Complete"—just something to test and see if it makes sense.

        This post seems to have the same idea as yours:

    The habit goal is set to 'No more than 0 times per week,' so it should update when marked as 'success' and be marked as 'fail' otherwise, also resetting the streak.
