## Review summary

Word Tracker is praised for its simple, intuitive interface and clear visual feedback through graphs and percentages. Users appreciate tracking multiple projects, the potential to boost productivity, and auto-adjusting goals when days are missed. It’s also noted as free and easy to log daily progress. However, reviewers repeatedly point out issues with date accuracy and calendar bugs, the inability to backdate or edit past entries, a rigid daily target, and confusing initial setup. Multi-project management feedback is mixed, suggesting room for improvement.
