🫂 What Are Accountability Buddies?
Accountability Buddies is a feature that allows friends to support each other’s goals, even when those goals differ. When you choose to become Accountability Buddies with a friend, only one of you will display the goal on your homepage while the other offers encouragement from the sidelines.
