A note to the developers:
As I am relatively new to QML development, I would appreciate it if someone more experienced could review the code. Any ideas, suggestions, or contributions are very welcome! Feel free to send me a PM.

We already found some bugs and fixed them with version 0.2 with help of @davodego . So every new tester which can find some bugs is welcome.

I’d also like to mention that another native app, Openhabitus has been available since 2023. I am trying to reach out to its developer to see if we can merge our efforts and code.

Best regards,
Dominik
