Sound Flaw

I loved the concept and user-interface. It was easy to figure out and set the repeating timers.

However, sounds only work on iPhone if it isn’t silenced That’s a dealbreaker for me. I wanted a way to mark time passing in a distraction-filtered environment due to ADHD & time blindness. Unsilencing my phone defeats that purpose and it doesn’t help me to have Lock Screen notifications after the fact.

Doesn’t work.

I purchased all the sounds and the app crashed. I tried to purchase it again and it says already purchased. Tried to restore purchase and the app crashes. Reached out to developer but they are not responding. Such apps should be taken out from App Store.

There’s no point if I have to reset it everyday!

The first day I loved this app. It’s simple and practical. BUT! There’s no way to set the reminders to reoccur daily. Which means I have to go into the app and reschedule the ‘chirp’ (the reminder) every single day. That seems like something that should’ve been included from the start. If they added it, this app would easily be perfect.

EXACTLY what I was looking for!

Picking up the phone while working from home is risky, there’s SO many distractions. I’m an artist & avid nature lover. It’s absolutely essential for me to track my time and still maintain the flow of my work & immersion. Especially when my hands are covered in paint! This app is perfect for that. It’s also helpful while I hike & workout! This app helps me eliminate that & keep track time so I know when to break for dinner, pick up my kid, or need a break. I never realized how much my grandmother’s wall clock helped regulate my adhd growing up & this is the digital replacement. Thanks for making a simple, polished, user friendly app. Less is truly more—a lost concept with so many developers!

Has potential

Has potential but they need to make some important changes and improvements first.

Love it!

I’ve been looking for an app like this forever. I lose track of time and I like hearing a chirp every 30 minutes to keep me aware. It’s simple and does what I want. I would give it 4.5 stars because it’s bit pricy for the extra chirps and slots but it’s great even without the extra features. Beautifully designed. I will be buying some extra features as a thank you and to support the development of the app! Would love to see it progress.

Where is the app?

On my phone, I’ve searched all desktops and folders and I can’t find where the app is!! I can only open app by “searching Chirp” on my phone

Wanted to like it

First, it is very hard to set the times. You scroll but the current number is under your finger and it is almost impossible to set a particular time. Second, I could not hear any of the default chimes so I could not test it. Great design and could be what I am looking for but cannot get it to work.

Lovely

I needed reminders that acted independently of me, that didn’t require constant dismissal and (re)set up. This app does what it says on the tin, with no ads, and simple controls.

I’m really liking the additional bird sound options. I had started to tune out the default and now I can set different sounds for different reminders.

I never write reviews so I hope this speaks to just how much I like this app.

No sound

I can’t get this frustrating app to make any noises no matter what I do. Adjusted iPhone volume, went into the app’s settings, searched through my phone’s settings, searched the internet for ideas, tried all I could find, wasted like an hour on it! Terrible app.
