### 4/5 — Very good

*2013-11-10, version 1.5.3*

If your one of them people who wants to get things done but needs a motivational helping hand then this is the app for you. I have completed loads of tasks that I'd been putting off for ages. It's simple but effective.

### 4/5 — If I could give 3.5 stars, I would...

*2013-10-13, version 1.5.3*

Great idea, fun graphics, good encouragement....but the next steps list doesn't carry on to subsequent days?? Am I only meant to write steps after they are completed??? Confusing.

### 4/5 — Very good!

*2013-01-22, version 1.5.3*

If you want to get things done on time, this is for you. The report feature is great for tracking your commitment to eliminating procrastination. Read "about" first!

### 3/5 — Use a timer app instead

*2011-12-21, version 1.2.2*

Just got this app. I currently use a timer app to deal with my procrastination. I was hoping for something more inspiring. My most important task is Yoga. I see no reason to use this app when I should re-enter why I need to do it.

### 4/5 — Good but could be great!!

*2011-10-06, version 1.2.2*

Suggestion #1: Allow the option for individual tasks for an active frog to CARRY OVER FROM DAY TO DAY if they don't get completed on the day they were listed I.e. The task shows up on everyday's list until completed. This is an app for procrastinators, right?

Suggestion #2: Allow users to change/ sort order of tasks within an activated frog

Suggestion #3 Allow users to toggle between which frog is activated. So there would still only be one frog active at a time but sometimes you HAVE to put one frog down to eat a more looming frog. 

Suggestion #4: Allow users to create breakdown task lists for inactive frogs. 

Thanks!!!

### 4/5 — I'd be a raving fan...

*2011-07-02, version 1.2.2*

... if only there was an iPad version.

### 4/5 — Need app for the iPad

*2011-01-20, version 1.2.2*

Need for iPad great application

### 3/5 — Support where are you?

*2010-11-24, version 1.2*

Followed the link to support for this program and found only Habit Factor blog, faq, customer testimonies, etc.  I need help.  I purchased this app a while ago and it worked fine. The problem now is that when I touch the settings button it closes the app.  It never did that before.  I tried deleting the app from the phone, turning the phone off, syncing it to itunes to reload app, turning it off/on again to no avail.  The same result.

### 4/5 — Need ability  to list steps in inactive frogs

*2010-05-10, version 0*

I love this app, even bought the book because of it. One small suggestion that would make it 5 stars for me; give the option to outline the steps for each "frog" before you have to activate it.  It would help me figure out which frog in my list is really the first frog without having to do it in another outlining app first.

### 3/5 — Fun

*2009-10-27, version 0*

This is a great app for me.  I get sidetracked and overwhelmed easily.

### 4/5 — Great more worthwhile items done with this app

*2009-09-30, version 0*

This has app has been very useful in helping me confront my most important tasks. I'll admit when I'm staring down a huge "to-do" item it can be intimidating but once I complete it I ALWAYS feel better. The good thing about this app is it isn't a bunch of random items to complete but rather it helps you stay focused on things that worthwhile to get completed. It won't do your work for you but if used as instructed expect results. Highly reccommended and worth money.

### 3/5 — Effective but missing sort feature.

*2009-09-21, version 0*

ETF is great at helping you focus on getting your most important projects done and should not be confused with todo apps. The idea being quality and not quantity. The charts are nice and motivate me to perform at 100%. One missing feature is the ability to sort projects by due date. I guess you're expected to remember that. I recommend this to anyone who is good at getting lots done but has a hard time focusing on priorities.

### 3/5 — Nice start, but...

*2009-09-16, version 0*

I'd like it if my "Next Steps" could carry over from one day to the next. For example, my first frog is a doozie that won't be finished until Oct. 1. I'd like to have my next steps that I entered on Sept. 12, still be listed under the item when I go back to it on the 13th, 14th, 15th...so that I can see how I'm chipping away at the task. I'd also like to plan ahead and enter next steps for the future frogs that can't be activated until the first one is eaten. Thanks!

### 1/5 — Not Like his book

*2016-02-02, version 1.6.1*

Complete waste of money. It would seem like the app would mirror his book of the same title. It's does NOT. The description doesn't give accurate  information about this app. Too bad I bought this app. It's useless to me.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2012-11-10, version 1.5.3*

Other app broken.  This one?????

### 1/5 — Not a good app

*2012-05-29, version 1.2.2*

Want my money back ..

### 1/5 — Useless

*2011-09-01, version 1.2.2*

Quite simply doesn't work - forgets your entries immediately. Very poor - productivity - what a joke .

### 1/5 — Very Disappointed

*2011-08-06, version 1.2.2*

I purchased this app with high hopes. I like Brian Tracy's idea of completing your most difficult task ( eat the frog) and you are  already on your way to having a productive day. I think this app is wonderful for this purpose if it actually worked. I have been able to enter a task and activate it. Beyond that application is very buggy. If you open up the tracking screen the font is garbled and illegible. if you go to the settings window that entire screen is blank and there's no way to adjust any settings. More disconcerting is if you enter in an item and don't activate it there is no way to view that item or a way to activated later.

The concept behind all of the applications from Equilibrium Enterprises are excellent ideas in concept. I use the Habit Factor application which is currently working but is not the most intuitive iPhone app I've ever used. I'm just disappointed that these apps that have so much potential would only have to function to be very valuable. On that note the Habit Factor works but if the developer is not going to put the time in Brian Tracy's Eat That Frog to have this app function properly they should not continue to sell it.

Even more disappointing is I am unable to find any place on the developer's website to actually contact them for support. Extremely disappointing,

### 1/5 — Very buggy

*2011-03-07, version 1.2.2*

Crashes. Screen slips. Loses data. Will no doubt get better with time.

### 1/5 — Cute frog,  but blank screens

*2011-02-23, version 1.2.2*

I love the idea behind this app. I started using it today. There was no problem to set three frogs and complete the first. But then something went wrong and the only two screens where I see what I suppose to are "About" and "Track". I don't see any frogs in my list, even I try to add a new one I don't see it.  I don't see anything in the Setting. After completing the second frog, I don't see the third and I can't make it active. I'm very disappointed.

### 1/5 — Hopless

*2009-10-05, version 0*

I'm dissapointed with BT. He should not associate himself with such rubish. You don't really need an app to tell you that you haven't done what you already know you haven't done!

### 1/5 — Good concept...very buggy

*2009-09-10, version 0*

Love the concept but everytime my frog eats my task, it won't show my list until I go out of the app and then go back in. Not worth the money. Also, when I go to view the chart, the "about" section is in the background and only works when I go out of the app and then go back in. Very annoying.

### 2/5 — Nice graphics but poor user interface

*2009-09-16, version 0*

I was totally excited to purchase this app, as the graphics and design looked slick on the screen shots. After using this program for a few days, I am very disappointed with it's user interface. The program is not very intuitive. For the average user, I think this app is good, however, for the more demanding UI savvy user, this program is not up to par. The app always opens up to the "information/about" page and does not possess a memory so that it opens to the page that you last left it at. How often does one go to the info/about section that the developer assumes you want to open to this page each time? Also, the way the program is laid out and the schematics on how to add tasks is very confusing and certainly not logical. Overall, I'm said I spent the money on this app. I hope for updates from the developer in the future.

### 5/5 — Addictive

*2015-08-13, version 1.6.1*

I love this app! I'm not experiencing any of the issues the other reviewers had using previous version -- the program runs smoothly and doesn't glitch. It's quite addictive to put in new frogs and then click "complete"; plus, suddenly I'm a lot more productive and less angry with myself. Thanks!!

### 5/5 — Invester

*2013-03-12, version 1.5.3*

My whole life is now falling into place so simple so effective. Great app

### 5/5 — Helps

*2013-01-23, version 1.5.3*

It's helping me get off to a good start most days, and that's half the battle.

### 5/5 — Needs instructions please!

*2012-12-28, version 1.5.3*

I think I like it.  It is probably easy to use and indeed I have started using it.  However I am in need of instructions - perhaps add them under the tab 'about this app'.  (Particularly about how to break down a task and using the generate button etc).

### 5/5 — Excellent productivity tool

*2009-11-13, version 0*

I have tried many different task management apps, including Todo, RTM, and Things, but none of them were this simple and this helpful. Being able to concentrate on only one important task at a time has helped me prioritize better and get things done more efficiently. If you follow Brian Tracy, or if you are looking for the perfect task management solution, I highly recommend Eat That Frog!

### 5/5 — Great way to manage Tasks!

*2009-09-30, version 0*

I have long been a Brian Tracy fan and this app was like a dream come true, I use this for my task management, not a day planner but my major task management and it works perfectly. Give it a go its great value for money and a great way to manage the major tasks and goals in your life!

### 5/5 — Great tool for tracking the most important task of the day

*2009-09-29, version 0*

Great and fun app! Very nice graphics, easy to use and suprisingly fast on my iphone 2G. This is neither a to do app, nor a projest tracking app, but just a way to focus on your most important task of the day. Since you can only activate one task at a time this app makes you priorotize and think about what is the most important thing you got to do. It would be nice if i could rearrange the steps in any order i like and delete them when i completed a step. Hopefully in next update it will be possible.

### 5/5 — Effective & fun ... a great combination!

*2009-09-25, version 0*

This application has 3 key things that give it high marks from me:
1. Very useful. Effective lists help keep us on the right track!
2. Easy to use. Complicated tools get ignored. 
3. Fun. Given a choice between fun and drab, wouldn't you choose the few seconds of fun?

I believe those who choose to use this app will reap benefits ... as I have found with every other Brian Tracey product I have put to good use!

### 5/5 — Mr.

*2009-09-10, version 0*

I have been listening or reading Brian Tracy's material for the last 26 years, this App is a wonderful implementation of Brian's practical wisdom. Bravo!

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2009-09-10, version 0*

I *love* this application! It brightens my day an has enhanced my productivity meaningfully. I would strongly recommend this to anyone.
