What are the best New Year’s resolution apps?
Trying to start and keep your resolutions throughout the year can be rather daunting. Whether your want to get back into shape, keep track of your projects, or manage your bank accounts, everything can seem a bit daunting. However, with the enormous number of apps on the Play Store, there is definitely something out there that can help you.
Those who want an all-in-one app for taking notes and keeping track of tasks will want to look no further than Google Keep. This app has grown exponentially over the years, and has plenty of features to help you keep track of everything over the next year.
Whenever the calendar turns over to a new year, one of the most popular New Years resolutions is to help get your weight in check. That’s where an app like FitNotes will come in. It offers a simplistic way to keep track of all of your workouts thanks to an array of categories and workouts to choose from.
It’s great to have the conviction to workout on a regular basis, but if you don’t already have that and want to turn it into a habit, you’ll want a habit tracker. Grow is a simplistic habit tracking application, where you can grow a tree in the app every time you perform one of the tasks you’re trying to turn into a habit.
2020 was a crazy year, and that likely meant that it was a wild year for your wallet. Now that 2021 has arrived, you might be looking for an app to track your expenses and balance your checkbook. Monefy simplifies the daunting task of keeping track of your money, allowing you to create a budget and then keep track of every penny that you spend across an array of different categories.
1. Google Keep
We’ve come a long way from the note-taking application that Google Keep once was. The original idea is still there with its post-it notes layout on the main screen, but you can do so much more to keep your thoughts and tasked organized.
Create grocery lists, to-do lists, reminders, and then check things off as they’re completed. Add photos or links to check out and review when you have more time, and group your notes together with the help of labels.
Google Keep has the obvious integration with Assistant, so you can just use a voice command to add to your list or create a new note. Plus, Keep is available everywhere, so it doesn’t matter what other devices you are using or will be using.
Keep track of everything
Google Keep
Google Keep is the all-in-one app for keeping track of reminders and any notes that you need to get out of your brain. The easy integration with Google Assistant makes life even easier, and then you can go back and organize everything to your needs.
2. FitNotes
Despite still featuring the #holoyolo design, FitNotes is a fantastic application for those wanting to keep track of their workouts. Instead of overwhelming users with too many options, Fitnotes takes a simplistic approach: it just lets you track various workouts.
As for what can be tracked, there is a pre-built list of exercises based on muscle groups, but you can add your own exercises if you want to customize your own workout.
Then, FitNotes makes it easy to view your progress and view all of your workouts over the last weeks and months. Tracking your body weight and fat percentage couldn’t be simpler, and there’s built-in Google Drive and Dropbox support for backing up your workout logs.

3. Grow – Habit Tracking
Grow is a simple and beautiful app that you’ll want to use each day. Adding a habit takes just a few seconds, and after you do that, you can add as many other ones as you’d like.
You can set start and end dates for your goals, certain times during the day you want to complete them, and as you keep going, you’ll see a tree gradually grow with each day that you successfully meet it.
Grow doesn’t have quite as many features compared to some of the other apps on this list, but if you just want something easy and enjoyable to use, this is one of our favorites.

It’s not as complex as some of our other favorites, but for people that want to keep things as simple as possible, this is a great fit. We also love the visualization of growing trees as you follow through with your habits.
4. Monefy
One of the most tedious tasks we have when it comes to “adulting” is balancing our checkbooks. Monefy aims to simplify the process, making it easier than ever to account for every dollar you spend. There are an array of categories to choose from when it comes to categorizing where your dollars are being spent.
When using Monefy to its fullest potential, you can get an overview of where your money is going at a glance. Maybe it’s time to spend a little less during the Steam sales, and put a little bit more into your savings account? Monefy helps you figure everything out so that your money is well-spent and accounted for.
While the app itself is awesome to use, the developers have included a few widgets to manage your finances even faster. And if you want to keep prying eyes from viewing anything, Monefy has password protection. There’s even the ability to export your financial data with ease, so you can view the breakdown on a computer or transfer the information to another app.

Stay productive in the New Year
From projects to daily tasks and reminders, it can be tough to stay on top of everything that needs to be done. Thankfully, these applications can help become the second brain some of us need to make sure you can check off those boxes throughout the year.
Todoist
If you’re looking for the best to-do apps for Android, then you can stop the search with Todoist. This is our favorite application for helping you get things done with more features than you could imagine.
In addition to the fantastic Natural Language Parsing, Todoist is available on every platform, ranging from Windows to Android and everywhere in between. The free plan provides the ability to add up to 80 different projects along with a few integrations, but the true power is unlocked with Todoist Premium.
One new feature released at the end of 2020 was the new “Boards” options. This creates a kanban-style view for your various projects, and can be enabled on a per-project basis so you aren’t stuck with an all-or-nothing approach.

Google Calendar
Yes, Google Calendar can be used for tracking habits. Seriously!
When you tap on the + icon in the app, you can then click the Goal bubble to add a goal/habit you want to follow. You can make goals for exercising, learning a new language, spending time with a friend, taking up a new hobby, cleaning the house, and a lot more.
Once you find a goal you’d like to stick with, you choose how often you want to do it, how long you want to do that particular thing, and the time of day you want to do it.
This is all built right into the Google Calendar app that’s already on your phone, and yes, it’s completely free to use.
More than a calendar
Google Calendar
The habit tracker you already have on your phone
We all use and rely on Google Calendar for keeping track of doctor appointments and important meetings, but did you know it’s also a pretty great tool for tracking habits? Google Calendar allows you to create Goals for exercising, building a skill, organizing your life, and more. Plus, it ties in with your Google account.
Calendar Widget by Home Agenda
After you’ve got your Calendar all set up, you’ll likely want to keep an eye on what events are on the docket. But truth-be-told, Google’s Calendar widget is a bit outdated and is a sore on the eyes for some. That’s where Calendar Widget by Home Agenda comes in.
This is a customizable widget that ties into your calendars, providing your upcoming events at a glance. Customization is key here, as you can change just about every aspect imaginable, matching the widget to your existing home screen setup.
Set a new routine

The app is free to use, but if you want to upgrade your character’s cosmetics or the way Habitica looks, you can purchase Gems. There’s also a monthly subscription, providing exclusive items every month.

Habitica takes a unique approach to the habit-building process — it turns it into a video game! Habitica is designed to play like an RPG, featuring things like quests, unlockable armor, customizable characters, and more. You progress through the game and level up by completing your tasks/habits.
It’s time to get healthy
New year, new you. For many, the biggest New Years resolution has everything to do with their own health and wellbeing. Whether you’re trying to lose a few pounds or want to start eating healthily, you’re going to want to get some help from your phone. Luckily, there are plenty of options to choose from.
Nike Training Club
There’s a reason why Nike Training Club is one of the best fitness apps for Android. The app is completely free to use and features plenty of different workouts for you to choose from. Whether you’re a bit out of shape or just want a new workout application, NTC has you covered.
Instead of just trying to decipher the weird workout guides that are often more confusing than good, Nike Training Club provides trainer-led workout programs. This will help to ensure that you’re performing the workouts correctly. And there are even workout times, allowing you to get a quick workout in the morning or a longer one if you really want to feel the muscle burn.
Guided workouts
Nike Training Club
Nike Training Club is entirely free to use and is filled with all sorts of workouts. You can work your way through collections designed around goals you want to reach (such as building up your abs or stepping up your running game) or pick any of the available ones on demand that are sorted by muscle group and workout type.
Food Diary
Finding the best food tracking apps for Android is subjective and, frankly, rather difficult. There are a lot of great options out there, but Food Diary stands out from the crowd. A big selling point for many is how you don’t have to create an account or worry about any subscription fees to get started.
Food Diary is also great because it’s a minimalist application that just lets you enter your calorie counts for each meal. You will miss out on the benefit of having a food database to rely on, but that’s just even more reason for you to get a better understanding of the food that you’re eating.

Those wanting to keep track of their food intake without signing up for accounts or a subscription will love Food Diary. The app just lets you enter the calories for whatever you eat, without any of the unnecessary and potentially-annoying frills.

MyFitnessPal is the calorie-counting application that just about everyone has tried out at some point. There’s a good reason for that since it’s one of the most fully-featured food tracking apps on the Play Store. From scanning bar codes to searching the database, MyFitnessPal can keep track of everything without you needing to put in too much extra work.
The biggest problem with the app is that while you can sign up for a free account, that’s not where the biggest benefit comes. Instead, Under Armour (who owns the app) continues to push its subscription on you to unlock all of the features, which include the ability to log exercises and workouts, get a personalized experience, track macros, and more.
Count your calories
MyFitnessPal
MyFitnessPal makes it easy to track what you eat, showing a log of your various meals throughout the day, all of the macros included in your food, and a barcode scanner that automatically adds all of the nutritional info from food into the app.
Take some time for yourself
Life is hectic, and there never seems to be a good time to take a step back for yourself. But mental health is just as important, if not more important, than your physical health. These apps help you to take a deep breath and make sure your headspace is in the right place.
Calm
Whether you’re trying to fall asleep without tossing and turning or are trying to learn how to meditate, Calm is a great option. There’s a reason why it’s our pick for the best mental health app for Android.

What’s Up
There are a lot of different types of mental health apps on the Play Store. While something like Calm helps you to meditate or get some sleep, What’s Up takes a different approach.
What’s Up is a free application designed to help you keep track of your thoughts and feelings. There’s a built-in game called “Get Grounded” that includes more than 100 different questions to get your mind off of whatever is bothering you and back into the right place.

Mint
There are a lot of budget tracking apps on the Play Store, but one of the most reliable options has been Mint. The app has been around for years and has been updated with support for an array of new features.

You will need to sign in with your various bank and credit card accounts but then, all of your information and spending habits are displayed in an easy-to-understand interface.
