  • Need Apple Watch time complication for full function

    This app seems like one of the better Pomodoro apps, however I would like to provide the following feedback:

    (1) One of the big productivity enhancers is allowing the app to be fully functional independently on Apple Watch without phone. This means having a complication / widget on the watch to see time remaining, which I have not seen on this app yet (in the free version). An example of this function is available on the ‘Focus To-Do’ app.

    (2) As a design choice, I would also like to see the timer graphic as a visual representation of elapsed time in addition to solely numbers (ie the circle or clock timer showing elapsed time, examples in ‘Focus To-Do’/‘Be Focused’ or ‘Flat Tomato’ apps).

    Developer Response

    Hi Alex! Thank you so much for your kind and detailed feedback! (1) We'd love to add a complication (widget) that shows the remaining time. Unfortunately, widgets are not intended for displaying real-time information. Widgets are intended for static information, i.e. the system limits how often the app can update the widget. A timer with auto-start options like Flow is not suitable here and would quickly lead to an outdated timer widget and thus confuse the user. Nevertheless, we are keeping an eye on changes in Apple's SDK and may add a widget with the timer in the future. (2) Thanks for letting us know you're interested in this. I've added it to our list of possible future changes and improvements. If you have any more suggestions or questions, feel free to contact us at support@flowapp.info anytime. — Lea from the development team 💚
  • This app changed the way I work, thank you! Devices Sync NEEDED

    As an ADHD student in school, I almost never sit down and focus, but with this app it’s completely changed that. Not to mention the design is simple and gorgeous, gonna be an easy purchase from me.

    But a big, big ask: can you guys make it so it syncs to iPad or Aaple Watch? In real time? I don’t know if it’s a pro feature or if I’m doing it wrong, but the timers don’t sync across devices and I’d really like for that to become a reality (especially since other timers do that, but they’re kinda ugly, not pretty like this one!)

    I think proper syncing would make this an ELITE app. Thanks for what you do!

    Developer Response

    Hi Gavin! Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're so thrilled to hear that Flow has helped you to stay focused. You're right, currently, you can only sync your statistics across devices, not the timer itself. In the future, we want to add the option to sync the timer and current session progress across devices as well. It's high on our list, so stay tuned. We really appreciate your feedback and support! — Lea from the development team 💚
  • Clean & Useful, with one quirk!

    I love this app and use it every day. It's simple, effective, and nicely designed.

    My one issue is that I wish I were able to operate the app from the menu bar shortcut. Right now, if you click the app in the menu bar, it brings up a pretty disruptive (and small) pop-up that sometimes gets buried in my multiple monitors / slew of other apps that I open throughout the workday. I'd like to be able to click the menu bar shorcut, pause/start a flow, and immediately resume work. Currently it is pretty distracting in the middle of focused work to click the shortcut, locate the small pop-up window, select what I need, then close the pop-up again.

    Developer Response

    Hi, thank you so much for using Flow and for your feedback! You can control Flow directly from the menu bar without having to open the Flow window. You can do so by right-clicking (secondary click) on the menu bar icon to pause/start a flow. There are also various (global) keyboard shortcuts you could use like ctrl ⌥ ⌘ + f to pause/start a flow. Make sure to enable the "Allow global keyboard shortcuts" setting in Flow. You can view all keyboard shortcuts in our documentation at https://flowapp.info/docs. I hope this was helpful. Feel free to contact us at support@flowapp.info anytime. — Lea from the development team 💚
