Brilliant Job Task Timer App

This is the most Brilliant Job Task Timer App, I have seen. Most apps out there are too complicated and have too many features. - This App nails it on the head 100% exactly. KISS Principle, Keep It Simple Stupid. Do you have a Professional Version of this for me to buy ? I want it. Am Down Under in Australia in Cashmere, Brisbane. Sitting in my happy chair studying this App & watching 2 Male Koalas in the bush on my property have a deep & meaningful discussion on which gets to take the lady Koala, on the branch above, on a date. Well, that is the very polite version of what really is happening. arkkkk ! Koala Mating season is starting a bit early. Cheers, Stephen, Down Under - Brilliant, Simple to Use App.

Gosh, I'm smiling as I write this response :-) Thank you for writing, it's really touching. Special thanks for the story about the koalas! And yes, we have a subscription. You can activate it, for example, through the 'reminder' section in the task, because as it's one of the premium features. Thanks again!

gorgeous design and super motivational

My favourite time tracker! Love the strong minimal design, and finishing a task is super satisfying with the motivational celebration screen. Also really love that it’s very stable, doesn’t crash, and changing up what I’m working on and tracking is super quick and easy.

Response from developer

Thaaaank you very much!

Great design- missing privacy policy?

Hello, the app has a lovely design. However, I cannot find the privacy policy page on the website. What is the privacy policy?

Response from developer

Thanks a lot for your feedback! Link to privacy policy now on the app page.

Best app ever.

Love everything about it. One suggestion, is it possible to have its controls on lock screen as well? Would be great to pause and play like the music from the lock screen. Just a suggestion but overall I love it — the design, the concept... everything is fantastic. Thank you!

Response from developer

Thanks a lot! Widget for the Lock Screen will definitely be made!

Lists keeps on scrolling

Interface is clean and simple. Easy to enter .
Couple of things that need to improve

1. This is the main reason for 1 str . The list of tasks is in continuous motion or scroll , so I can’t select the task
2. This is minor. I can’t put in Target hours.

Response from developer

Wow, that's not how Hourly is supposed to work! Please-please-please, send us to support@hourly-app.com more details about it: what iPhone you're using, iOS version, how many tasks you have and how much time is spent on them. Screen record (if possible) will also help us to get rid of this awful bug. UPD Apr 7: Continuous motion bug fixed! Check it again, please-please-please?

Seems nice, however...

I am adept with logging apps such as this,and for all intents and purposes this seems pretty streamlined.

To that end the only think lacking (severely) are instructions...of ANY kind. I have worked in Internet based software R&D since 1991, so feel I am technically adept and experienced with workflows/UX for applications, however cannot figure out how to do simple task in addition to what certain things represent in this app. I have pushed and swiped and tried everything j can think of, but unfortunately will now have to delete this app for the simple reason there is no instructions (or even settings) that I can see
Very unfortunate and I would encourage the engineer to either IMPLEMENT SOMETHING or make it easier to find.
Finally I’f there is some help for this and I’m missing it I will gladly update this revised

incredibly clean

love how slick this app is. the app store video is very helpful to understand how it works, though i think it’s pretty intuitive. This is the future! Love the typography as well

Response from developer

Thanks! We’re doing our best!

Voiceover Time Management App

This app is voiceover accessible! I plan to use this app for my time management at my university. Keep up the great work!

Response from developer

That’s great! Thanks!

Awesome design!

Love the design! Great minimalistic app. Some features are lacking, so can’t wait for the future updates!

Response from developer

Thanks a lot! Next updates of Hourly definitely will bring something new and awesome. Meanwhile, could you share with us your thoughts about missing features? We really want to know everything about it! Our email is support@hourly-app.com

I wanted to like this...

I appreciate free apps, but this one is strange.

It just tracks time on one task.
No instructions.
No way to delete finished tasks.
Or restart them.
Hours are in 4-place decimals!
There’s no logical reason for it’s name.

Response from developer

Hello! Thanks a lot for letting us know what you had expected from the app. We really want to know such things, as they help us to prioritize options for future updates. You downloaded Hourly just a few days after it was released, so not all the features you (and we) wanted are developed in its first version. But! The options of deleting and restarting finished tasks will appear with the next update, that’s already being tested (btw, if you want to try it right now, we invite you to our beta-testers club – just drop us a line to support@hourly-app.com). As for the app’s name, Hourly measures time in decimal hours, that’s why it’s called so. This time format is useful for those who work for hourly rate. But we’ll bring the ability to change the format to hh:mm with one of the next updates, so stay tuned. Oh, and you can track not only one task, but several ones – to make a new task just tap “plus”, and to switch between tasks tap the red circle showing the number of tasks in progress. We hope you’ll give Hourly a second chance and ★★ will become ★★★★★ as you’ll know it better. UPD from Oct 4: we have added the ability to delete and resume finished tasks. UPD from Jan 10: now you can switch time format from decimal hours to hours and minutes. Please update Houry to get these features.
