New year’s resolutions: As we have entered a new year, thoughts of the past flood our minds – achievements, shortcomings and the little-used folding treadmill in the garage. January reminds us to set new goals and strive for personal growth and wellness once again. In our always-connected and technology-driven world, numerous apps are ready to assist in these efforts, offering personalized approaches to our individual goals.
Gola: creating and tracking personal goals – new year’s resolutions
Gola is a personalized goal-tracking app designed to help shape and track resolutions for the new year. Gola features a customizable template for entering goals, offers visual progress charts, sends reminders via notifications, and has an artificial intelligence feature that provides tips for achieving goals. With more than 20 templates, including options such as “read 12 books” and “try three new sports,” Gola adapts to individual preferences. Gola is free on iOS devices, and an annual subscription costs US$2.99 for unlimited goals, motivational tips and advanced settings.
PocketGuard: all about your finances
For those seeking financial savvy, PocketGuard helps track spending habits across multiple credit cards and bank accounts and includes an automated savings tool, a bill payment tracker, transaction history sheets and a budgeting strategy builder. The “In My Pocket” feature reveals available funds at a glance. The basic version is free, and the monthly premium subscription for $4.99 provides unlimited savings goals, custom budget categories and automatic recurrence of account settings.
SmartGym: personalized fitness guidance
SmartGym is like a personal trainer with artificial intelligence.

In a digital age where we spend so much of our lives in front of screens, apps like AppBlock are almost essential. This app helps you limit your screen time by allowing you to block distracting apps at certain times. Including parental control settings, a “Strict Mode,” and usage statistics make it a very nice app.
Sunnyside: mindful alcohol consumption
For those who are considering a reduction in alcohol consumption, Sunnyside is a great app that offers a way to track weekly alcohol consumption. It provides reminders, one-on-one coaching, and a supportive community. Priced at $99 per year, Sunnyside demands commitment, but a 15-day trial might be enough to discover its potential benefits.
Bookly: consistent reading habits
Finally, Bookly helps you adhere to your yearly reading goals. The app’s free version accommodates up to 10 titles, while a $4.99 subscription allows for an expanded collection without deletion constraints.
Now, you are armed with not only resolutions and aspirations but also handpicked apps that stand ready to support your pursuit of self-improvement and well-being. 4imag wishes you an amazing new year and a strong commitment to your new habits in which the transformative power of technology will aid you.
