### 4/5 — 15min >> 20min

*2025-12-02*

Please allow me to change the time unit to 20 minutes in the app settings.

### 5/5 — Really great

*2024-10-05, version 1.8.4*

Such a tastefully designed app. Beautiful, powerful, but simple. And very useful

### 5/5 — Compatibility???

*2024-09-12*

Is this app compatible with Apple Watch ???

### 4/5 — Need Live Activities

*2024-08-30*

Add Live Activities to the locked screen, where the notifications are and then it will be the best app! Thanks!

### 5/5 — An exceptionally outstanding and great app!!

*2024-08-05*

I have tried numerous time management apps, but this one is the best. It stands out for its intuitive, simple, and clear design, allowing users to customize settings in various ways. The ability to track time flow and manage tasks in 15-minute intervals is something that you can appreciate more as you use it, reflecting a wealth of experience in its design. However, there are a few things I hope to see improved:

First, while manual synchronization is possible through iCloud backup, I would love to see full synchronization capabilities.

Second, I would be willing to pay extra for a built-in clock or timer within the app.

### 5/5 — I love it.

*2024-07-10*

### 4/5 — Very useful but

*2024-05-24*

PLS ADD A WIDGET. PLS PLS PLS.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed but..

*2024-03-16*

I want to be able to categorise types into categories. Like “university” and “work” as productive, “chores” and “food” as routine and so on. So that in the statistics I can see if I was being productive or not.
Also it could be possible to make two tasks at the same time, but it might bring too much complexity in there. (Like University+Socialising for example)

### 5/5 — Very thoughtfully designed and superbly executed

*2024-01-12*

It’s absolutely criminal how few reviews this app has.

It’s been years since I first used this, and there is STILL no other app on the App Store like this. Best in its class, no comparison. Huge kudos and thanks to the developer.

I especially love how opinionated the Help and Settings pages are, while also giving you the option to change the settings. It tries to dissuade you from changing its settings, convincingly! I’m very glad I listened!

### 5/5 — 普通のカレンダーより気軽に記入できる

*2024-01-09*

時間の使い方を見直したい気持ちでダウンロード、いつものスケジュール管理するアプリより簡単に入力できて、ビジューも可愛くて、ゲームの感覚でやる

### 4/5 — Best way to visualize my time yet!

*2023-12-13*

While it doesn’t sync with any calendars (that I’m aware of), and getting precision is difficult, I still consider this app essential. 

My mind absorbs things better when it can visualize it, and this app lets me do that with ease! I can quickly highlight blocks of time, group them by color and tag, and quickly see at a glance where my unstructured or free time is, and where I can cut back. 

It’s been crucial in helping me avoid procrastination by being able to lay out not only today, but what’s coming up. So when I find myself feeling like dawdling a bit, I can see how much that’s going to cost me.

### 5/5 — Recommended

*2023-12-02*

You will get much more value than what you have paid

### 5/5 — Really great app!

*2023-10-20*

I have time off right now and who knows where it has been going. This app is so great for tracking time, especially since sometimes I forget to start or stop a timer. 

I really like the paid version, more colors and the stamper are really cool. I usually never buy apps, but this one is totally worth it, especially at the price point.

### 4/5 — Overall convincing

*2023-09-02*

All I need to block my daily tasks manually. 
One minor problem is, that you have to copy, delete and paste blocks instead of easily moving them, which is „under development“ as the faq tells us.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-08-29, version 1.8.2*

Helps to organize my day

### 5/5 — 非常有幫助的APP

*2023-08-27, version 1.8.2*

感謝作者製作出了如此好用的時間管理APP，希望能一直保持更新，因爲實在離不開它了！

### 1/5 — Can’t sync

*2025-11-02, version 1.8.4*

Can’t sync across devices.

### 1/5 — Can’t sync

*2025-02-21, version 1.8.4*

It can’t sync between devices yet.

### 1/5 — Shutting Down

*2018-12-18, version 1.6.1*

I'm trying to use Stamper but the app shuts down whenever I press Stamper

### 1/5 — 闪退根本打不开

*2016-11-08*

一直闪退，根本连内容都看不到啊！

### 2/5 — Language Bug in Latest Update

*2024-08-10, version 1.8.4*

After the new update, there’s a lot of random Chinese words, even though I have the app in English mode. The Chinese is very confusing.

### 3/5 — Can’t Multi-task

*2023-02-27, version 1.8.2*

Can only record one activity per block. Wish I knew that before paying $2!

### 3/5 — Need a Widget

*2022-12-11, version 1.8.2*

The app itself is awesome with so much options to fit everyone’s needs, I would hold the next 2stars until you add the only remaining feature. A functional widget👍🏽

Thank you

### 3/5 — Doesn’t sync with iPad

*2020-07-05*

I don’t understand why it doesn’t sync with my iPad, it really limits the functionality that way

### 3/5 — Best purchase of 2019 except..

*2019-08-30*

This is exactly what I was looking for! I downloaded the lite version and then immediately purchased the full version.. I've tried many different methods to log my day such as Excel, Google docs, iOS shortcuts etc but this app takes the cake! I live that there isn't automatic backup to iCloud.

EXCEPT..
There are quite a few analytics that this application uses.. remove or give your paying customers the chance to opt out!

### 3/5 — Pretty good but no apple calendar integration

*2019-04-10, version 1.6.2*

Just need apple calendar integration to be fully complete to my usual workflow

### 5/5 — Best TimeBlocking tool I could find

*2026-03-28*

Exactly what I am looking for! 
Very intuitive and easy to use

### 5/5 — Use it to plan my free time

*2026-03-09*

I kind of reversed the use case. I love it so much. Everything that I want to be spending my time doing I put in the activity types list and it helps a ton. 

IMO Atimetracker is better for tracking but this is a really special app for planning my free time or picking what I want to do. TimeFinder is also good for this.

BlockyTime and TimeFinder are genuinely changing my life. Its like I can’t function without them.

### 5/5 — One more function would be great

*2026-02-23*

If it has a clock, the app is perfect~!

### 5/5 — I use it a lot

*2026-01-24, version 1.8.5*

Visually it helps me organize my day.

### 5/5 — 很好！Great!

*2025-11-23, version 1.8.4*

ui很人性化。希望能有widget可以用

### 5/5 — Love

*2025-11-08, version 1.8.4*

I love this app. I wish the devs would make a version for MacOS.

### 5/5 — Simple and Effective

*2025-05-19*

The app is quick and easy to use. Thank you. Well worth the $2:99.

### 5/5 — Perfect app for time tracking! Just one issue.

*2025-03-31*

This app is just what I needed to track where and how my time goes daily and how much can I convert into productive work. I’m only having one issue that choosing a block shows time difference between current time and chosen block time in Chinese instead of English. So if that can be fixed it’ll be appreciated. Besides that this app is just perfect.

### 5/5 — Simple and effective

*2024-11-21*

Just what I needed. Thanks devs

### 5/5 — Excellent ease-of-use

*2024-11-20, version 1.8.4*

The elegantly simple UI of this time tracker has made it the one that stuck for me.  Nice to look at, easy to use, no account sign-ups, easily and flexibly exportable data that stays between you, your phone, and wherever else YOU choose to save it.
