Dropped $40 on an app that was supposed to fix my morning routine and it just added another 20 minutes

I paid $40 for a habit tracker app last month thinking it would make my mornings smoother. First week I spent more time logging tasks and setting reminders than actually doing them. I kept telling myself the monthly review graphs would help, but after 3 weeks my phone was just buzzing at 6am with prompts I ignored. My old paper checklist on the fridge works better and costs nothing. Has anyone found a habit app that doesn't become its own chore?
