Hi there! We’ve just released a major update that includes some of the most requested feature improvements and several bug fixes. If you don’t see any of the changes listed below, please refresh your web browser on the login page to ensure you're using the latest version of the software.

Here are some major updates we’ve rolled out over the past few months:

AI Toolbox Model Upgrade

The AI Toolbox, which uses OpenAI’s large language model to provide tailored coaching based on your specific goals or tasks, has been upgraded from GPT-3.5 to GPT-4o. This newer model offers significantly better and more accurate responses. AI Toolbox is still a relatively new feature in GoalsOnTrack, and we’d love to hear your feedback on how it’s working for you or what we can improve.

Editable Habit Start Date

You can now edit a habit’s start date after it has been created. This is especially helpful for users who want to backfill habit tracking prior to using GoalsOnTrack. By default, the start date is set when the habit is created. To change it, simply edit the habit and select the actual start date. The habit strength data will automatically update based on the new date.

Feedback Link

We’ve added a new “Send Feedback” link in the footer of the main page when you're logged in. Please feel free to share your feature suggestions, improvement ideas, or overall feedback about the product. Your input helps us focus on building what matters most to you. Note: this link is not for technical support or billing questions. For those inquiries, please contact support@goalsontrack.com or use the Contact Us form on the Support page for a faster response.

Recurring Tasks Improvements

Recurring tasks are among our most-used features, and we've simplified their setup while keeping them flexible enough for power users. When you create a recurring task, there will be one template task and multiple recurring instances. The template task doesn’t require a due date and always appears under the “Later” section of the Tasks page. To edit the entire recurring series, modify the template task. If you mark the template task as complete, all recurring instances will automatically be closed.

Habits Page Checkbox Layout

Based on user feedback, we’ve updated the checkbox layout on the main Habits page. Checkboxes now run from left to right, showing older dates on the left and newer ones—including today—on the far right. Previously, the alignment was reversed, with today appearing on the far left. If you have suggestions to further improve this layout, we’d love to hear them.

Task Ordering in Goal Action Plans

Tasks listed in the Action Plan section of the Goal Details page are now ordered by due date, manual sequence, and creation time. If no due date is set, tasks will appear in the order they were created—an approach preferred by most users. Previously, tasks were ordered alphabetically, but based on feedback, we’ve changed the default to creation order.

Habits Widget on Dashboard

As requested by many users, the Dashboard’s habits widget now only shows habits that haven’t yet met their required frequency, based on your repeat settings. For example, if a habit is set to repeat twice weekly, it will disappear from the widget once it’s been checked off twice that week. This helps you stay focused on the habits that still need attention, especially if you're tracking many habits.

What We’re Working On Now

We’re preparing to launch another update to the UI, along with improvements to onboarding and online help. We’re also addressing a few minor bugs and making additional adjustments to the Goals and Tasks pages. As always, please report any issues or suggestions you may have—we value your input.

Thank you for your continued support! We look forward to hearing your thoughts and ideas.
