Some Suggestions *2024-02-02, version 2.0.1* I absolutely adore this timer, finally one without ads or subscriptions that just make me want to touch my phone more. I will keep using this regardless, but here are some of my suggestions. A few suggestions: when switching from work to break, an option to make my phone vibrate would be great, sometimes I don’t even see it changed to my break! More sounds please! I love the office one:) This is more an aesthetic choice, but it might bring in more people, being able to change those orange bits to other colors would be a nice touch. ### 3/5 — No stats *2021-09-09* The app doesn’t have any stats at all :( otherwise the functionality is good ### 5/5 — Great app *2021-04-13, version 2.0.1* Love the self improvement quotes as well. Don’t see any other pomodoro apps with that feature. Awesome! ### 5/5 — Great!! *2021-04-09, version 2.0.1* Best ap ever! Working time is now well organized ;) thanks a lot! ### 5/5 — Çok güzel ama... *2021-03-27, version 0.6.2* Belirlediğimiz hedeflerin süresini ayarlayabilsek daha iyi olurdu🤔 ### 4/5 — GENIAL! *2021-02-22, version 0.6.2* es muuuy útil ### 4/5 — Handy timer *2021-02-09, version 0.6.2* Works well...but “focus” is misspelled... ### 5/5 — Genial *2021-01-16, version 0.6.2* Te deja cambiar los tiempos para hacerlos a tu conveniencia. Me encanta! ### 5/5 — Super bien *2020-12-30, version 0.6.2* Me gustaría que tuviese una opcion de bloquear todas las redes sociales menos google. Así tentaciones cero. Pero es genial😊 ### 5/5 — Divina *2020-12-17, version 0.6.2* Perfecta ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No sounds! *2022-11-21, version 2.0.1* I use focus mode, and in the work profile I have, where I added this app as allowed to notify, it does the banners etc, but no sounds, which means it doesn’t really work unless I check my screen all the time. Which is kind of pointless. Needs an update, it’s been years. ### 1/5 — iPad notifications not working *2022-03-04, version 2.0.1* Used the app for work but the notifications were not working. It would be perfect if the notifications were available. ### 1/5 — Zu kurz... *2021-10-11, version 2.0.1* Nach nur 30 Minuten waren dann 50% vom Akku verbraucht und das Handy war schön warm. Durch die Synchronisation von Timer und Ladezustand bleibt ohne Ladekabel nicht genung Zeit zum Konzentrieren. ### 1/5 — No va bien *2021-07-03, version 2.0.1* Se pasa el tiempo y no avisa. Si se bloquea la pantalla no sirve de nada. ### 1/5 — Countdown stops so 25min periods last longer *2021-06-07, version 2.0.1* Not 100% sure, but I think when the phone goes into sleep mode the counter stops. Thought something was wrong, so noted the time when I started a session - 9:35, so due to end at 10:00. At 9:54 there was 8 minutes left to go and then at 10:03, there was five minutes left. Not exactly an insignificant fault. ### 1/5 — Tally? Spelling? *2020-10-19, version 0.6.2* “KEEP CALM AND FOUCS ON WORK” This blatant spelling mistake has already been pointed out by another user - 1 year ago. This started to distract me - pretty much the opposite of an app like this, so have deleted it. There’s also no tally. To motivate me, I’d love to know how many times/hours I’m in to working. ### 2/5 — Bien planteado, pero inutilizable *2025-08-12, version 2.0.1* Con el iPhone me imagino que por gestión de la batería pasa el tiempo y no se reciben las notificaciones. Es decir, lo que siempre me pasaba. Es que al abrir la pantalla saltaba la notificación porque el tiempo había pasado ya hace tiempo. Desinstalado por enésima vez ### 2/5 — A proper translator is needed *2021-02-16, version 0.6.2* The English in this app is atrocious. The typo in the 'focus' on the main screen is distracting as well. ### 3/5 — Good simple pomodoro timer, but lacking history *2023-04-10, version 2.0.1* Nice app, what I was looking for but lack of session recording (history) is a big downside. ### 3/5 — Great except one fatal flaw *2021-09-20, version 2.0.1* This would be a great app but it doesn’t seem like there is a way to make the work sessions automatically start after the break (even though there is a way to make the break sessions automatically start). As a result, the app isn’t helpful for me. But hopefully a future version will add this setting. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Hits the sweet spot ! *2026-02-22, version 2.0.1* This app is simple to operate, is adjustable with your preferred time parameters, and has a clean interface. Just right! ### 5/5 — Simple and Neat and Free! *2026-02-12, version 2.0.1* Best pomodoro timer ! ### 5/5 — I like that *2025-08-31, version 2.0.1* I like that it lets me set up custom times for free ### 5/5 — Best free pomodoro hands down *2025-01-08, version 2.0.1* Thank you for producing such a free compelling app, while the rest demand subscriptions for absolutely no reason whatsoever. Thank you thank you thank you 🙏 ### 5/5 — Alles was man braucht *2024-06-30, version 2.0.1* Endlich eine App, die ohne Ablenkungen auskommt. Keine Werbung oder inapp Käufe, einfach nur ein Timer mit allen notwendigen Einstellungen. Ich nutze es seit Jahren und bin sehr zufrieden. ### 5/5 — Just what I have been looking for! *2024-01-29, version 2.0.1* I just got this app because the one I had before became obsolete and wouldn’t load on my phone. I was afraid that I wouldn’t find one like the one I had loved. Lo and behold! I decided to try this one and I love it so far! Even better than the one I had! I’m still discovering all the perks but here are my favorites so far! Settings are great…lots of options. It’s notifications are great and it even works on Fitbit which is great when your phone is not close by to hear. The only drawback I’ve noticed is that it needs to remain open to work. If you close it (swipe it up), it stops and you have to start over. Not a big deal leaving it open as it doesn’t drain your battery. Overall..it’s amazing and a keeper! Thank you! Update-glitches I’ve noticed: detailed how-to instructions would be nice. I can’t figure out how to get the long break to activate. Also, the number of intervals is confusing. Does the work count as one or does work plus break count as one. And, it seems to just stop the process and you have to hit start again. ### 5/5 — Minimal is Best *2023-03-21, version 2.0.1* This is exactly what I was looking for. A timer that would automatically go through all 4 pomodoro cycles without stopping. Some people may want all the extra bells and whistles but I’m looking for simplicity and minimalism. This app provides that. ### 5/5 — Simple, Effective *2023-03-08, version 2.0.1* Of all the pomodoro apps that I’ve tried, this app is the easiest to use and most customizable. I love that you can skip forward or backwards in case you forgot to start the timer or got taken away from your phone. I love that it’s free too! ### 5/5 — Best pomodoro app ! *2022-01-03, version 2.0.1* Easy to use, shows data analytics ! Very helpful for me ! ### 5/5 — Increíble la actualización *2021-04-18, version 2.0.1* Me ha sorprendido para bien la actualización de la app. Me ha alegrado que se interesen en los usuarios y que cambien el diseño para que no se haga tan monótona. Me encanta cómo se ven los colores y me parece esta app una gran fuente de motivación sobre todo para cuando estamos en casa. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
