Why is there no sound when the time is up?

Overall, it's great, but where is the sound notification or at least the vibration on the watch?

Good start

Can see the vision. Would love native support for iPad that’s not just an upscaled IOS app, higher quality backgrounds, and the accompanying hardware

Great design!

It’s an astonishing design for a free app! Would be great though, to have an option to increase the timer size. Also, some kind of task tracking or a history of completed intervals would be helpful for analyzing work times. Keep up the great work 👏

Cool needs some work

So far it seems to block all apps regardless of what I tell it to block.

Clean and futuristic timer

Normal timers just don’t work for me, this one combines the pomodero method with a clean and futuristic interface that makes distraction blocking easy. It also gave plenty of options of how I can customize my working schedule

Thank you! ❤️

Not bad

I like new graphics, but it can be even more beautiful. Waiting for the new releases.

Гениально

Очень классное приложение, но очень хотелось бы убрать кнопки
пауза/сбросить/скип, чтобы никак нельзя было снять блокировку

Уведомления

Текущая версия работает плохо, глючит эфир активности, в т.ч. На watch. Перестает работать при погашенном экране

Good, Simple Pomodoro Timer

So far, I have found this as a good pomodoro timer that can also block apps. I liked that I can easily see and set the total session time, not just the interval times. One possible issue I have is that I cannot access any blocked apps when the session is active, particularly during breaks. I wish there was an option to allow access to some or all set blocked apps during breaks. I also wish I could set the break timer to 25 minutes, as I sometimes like to do 55 minutes of work then 25 minute break.

Mute button please

See the potential as part of a bigger plan . Appreciate the simplicity . Would be great to have a mute button for the countdown timer .

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback! You can mute the sound in the timer settings.

Good focus timer

It’s a nice focus timer with some cool features. Only annoyance seen so far is that when the timer is not in use, it continues to leave widgets up in the “island” instead of removing them.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback! You mentioned the Live Activity widget—we’re working to fix it.
