Leave a Review WorkBreak Timer (Watch)
exactly what I was looking for
very nice customizable apple watch app - you can set the work and break time intervals, and repeat sequence. You can also add a complication to see the countdown on your watch face. You can easily pause or reset the current timer if you need to. I recommend this app.Very Limited Setting
My only issues is for $2.99 I’d expect to be about to set up repeats and timings when I wanted it running. For example, weekdays starts at 8am and runs 10 cycles, stops at 5pmDeveloper Response
Sorry that you found the price to be high for the limited features. Soon we would be working on an update which tracks Work and Break hours. I have noted down your requirement as a feature request wherein a reminder can be set up at the specified time for weekdays. Do let us know if you have any more suggestions/feedback. Thanks!Great concept but fatal flaw
In principle this is just the app I need: something to remind me to take breaks, with flexibility to adjust the timing on the fly. The fatal flaw is that the haptic buzzer is too weak to be detected. They need to offer the option of audio and/or put more juice in the haptic. Otherwise it is worthless to me.Show lessDeveloper Response
This app uses Apple Watch notifications to notify the user of the work/break change. This is a standard mechanism to notify the user for a "non-fitness" app. The fitness apps start a workout session and so are allowed to run in background by the watchOS. This enables to use other haptic alerts and sound as a feedback for change in intervals. The limitation for the non-fitness apps is that they cannot run in the background and have to depend on the default haptic notification to notify the user of any change. Are you facing any issues with haptic notification alert for this app during the interval change? Note that these do not work in "Do not disturb" mode since Apple Watch suppresses all notifications in DND mode. Support email: workbreak-timer@rhythmicworks.com
