Pay to use
Even if nothing indicated it, you need to create an account and then they proceed to talk about monthly payment options (12$/month). This is ridiculously expensive and you can't even see anything of the app. Can't know if I'll like it if I don't pay... Really disappointed
Requires a subscription
Went through the process of signing up only to find it requires a subscription to even use it. What's the Philippines nt when it can't track usage on mobile devices? Paying just for a report / dashboard seems silly.
Good transition but needs improvement
I like that Rescuetime is transitioning to an assistant-based approach, but I think they could do it without abandoning the dashboard and metrics—people need both! I also think they could incorporate something similar to their original dashboard into the iPad app, which would make it a lot more useful than the current version which is just a copy of the iPhone app that doesn’t work well on the bigger screen.

Very poor app
The activity section is totally broken, just a blank screen (even after trying to reinstall)
The app has to load EVERY time you load it, so if you’re running a countdown expect to wait every time you check it
The countdown itself is broken, sometimes focus time isn’t logged and every time you open it there’s a delay as it gets reloaded.
Such a simple task as a countdown timer should be implemented better than this

App is just dis functional
I can’t access any info about my stats or anything. I think the developers do not care about the app. The desktop version is great don’t get me wrong, just app is a pile of trash.
Hopefully they fix it, that’s why i’m leaving a 1star

It just didn’t work…
I can’t even log in with the same credentials I use on desktop. The older version of app is use-able but doesn’t track phone usage at all (it tracks by sending picking up)… at this rate I’m better off using iOS built-in screen time tracker…
Why aren’t you warning iPad users that this app won’t work on iPads?
I read online that Apple won’t let RescueTime track app usage for iPhones or iPads. It would have saved me some time frustration if the app description had just said that, or at least said it when I opened the app. Unless something has changed? I’d love to actually use this app. I used it probably 10 years ago, and loved it. I even paid for it for quite a while. Now I’m trying to reduce my streaming time, so I was wanting to use the basic features again.
I do all my streaming on my iPad, so if RescueTime can’t track app usage here, then this won’t work for me.
Before I read that this won’t work on my iPad, when I installed this app and created a new account with my new email and signed in, it only let me choose between the 2 paid versions. There was no way to select the free version.
So that’s not a great user interface on both counts. This has all just been a waste of time.

A complete solution for focus tracking and habit building
I’ve been a RescueTime user for years and I’ve come to rely on it to keep me focused while working at my computer. Excited to be able to take that focus with me on my phone!
