How to understand overview and score statistics

[dorinand]

Hello everyone,

at first, I have to say big thanx for this app, it is simple to use, I really appreciate it 👍 . I am using this app for few weeks and I decide to evaluate my results but I find out, the overview and score is not very clear for me. I brought some examples.

Gym Habbit

I am doing some workout 4 times per week (at least, thats the goal). The score is 38%. The graph shows that I am moving between 35-70% but I am not sure, what this numbers show to me and how is it calculated. When I think about the last week, there is 3 activities registered in History section. The goal is 4 times/week so I would expect, the Score section would show me 3/4 = 75% for the last week. In the Score board, it is something below 40% (I assume it is the 38% metioned in Overview section). How this numbers should be interpreted and how are they calculated?

TestBook Habbit

I create testing habbit for reading the book. I set it to 60pages/week. I manualy set that every Sunday, I red exactly 60 pages. There is no overview section but in Score section, I can see my score is about 60%. I would expected 100%, because my goal has been fulfilled.

Can somebody explain me this behaviour? And why there is no Overview section?

Hello @dorinand !

The score is cumulative, not per day/week. Here's a link to the FAQ which includes details on how the score is calculated:

Hi @mattsoak , thank you for your reply. I can see, there is exponential smoothing method used from the FAQ. But what that means for the result, how can I interpret it properly for myself?

Currently, I have 64% score on my Gym habit. I have data from 17.9.2021. How can I interpret this, am I doing good job or a bad one? My testing habit TestBook has currently score 40%. I ingest data only 8 times as you can see in the picture. For me, it is not clear, what that means for me, I am trying to do gym 4 times per week and my score is 64%, I did not read a page for last 1.5 months (last data from 16.1.2022) and my score is 40%. That is not a big diff between habit I am doing (almost) regularly and habit I stopped doing.
