Cute, but turning phone over to start is a nonstarter
I really like the look and feel of this app, and it has some great stuff going for it. But you cannot start the timer unless you flip your phone over and that’s a non-starter for me. Even when I’m working, I need to have my phone visible to see if there are new notifications from our kids. All they’d need to do is offer an option in settings to start the timer with an onscreen button and I’d give it 5 stars.No way to watch timer
All I wanted was a simple, cute timer. No ads and no need for to do lists, statistics, calendars… just a simple pomodoro. So glad to have found one! However, I like being able to see my timer. I wish there was a way to set the timer without having to turn the phone over.Timer Notifications on Apple Watch Not Reliable
Would you use a timer that only sometimes rings when time is up? That is this app for the Apple Watch. It is simple and cute, but also unreliable.
The vibration / audio chime / pop up notification work maybe 50% of the time when sessions are up. The other times I find myself looking at my watch realizing an extra 5 to 10 minutes has passed after the session technically ended. It even happens when I’m stating directly at the app watching the counter go to 0. Sometimes a chime / notification, sometimes nothing.
For this being the core function of a paid app, please make this more reliable.
