### 4/5 — Like it a lot!

*2022-05-05*

Really enjoying this app so far; the rings is a good interface for me to stay motivated.
Feedback- would love to be able to set weekly cycles not necessarily on a specific day. Like, at least twice a week, take an hour to chill or do something for myself, but what day that’s on might change. Just a thought!

### 4/5 — Good but could be better with a graph

*2021-01-31*

The app is great, but it would be even better if I could get a tally or graph of the week or month and how well my progress is going. I want to know  if my consistency is good or bad and what I’m slacking off on.

### 5/5 — Good app for forming habits

*2020-10-18*

I like the app. It’s easy to use and helpful but I cannot figure out how to get it to make alert sounds. I get notifications but they are always silent....? It’s good for what it was developed for, I just need to explore the app more...

**Devloper e-mailed me with helpful info. Honestly I leave reviews for everything good & Bad..... And this is the first developer that has ever taken the time to see if they could help.! That means that they’re basically a good business, like a mom and pop shop only 2020 style. Keep it up and your app will succeed.

**Developer response:** Hey there!

Thanks for downloading Cycles and leaving your feedback :). In order for system sounds to be active, that is something that is controlled through your iPhone settings! I would make sure that the volume rocker is turned on as a starting point!

If there are any other concerns please feel free to reach out to me @ alec.d@pixelogicapps.com

Thanks!

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2020-09-15*

I’m so glad to an app like this is actually created that doesn’t have a stupid in-purchase charge like the top promoted apps do. They’ll never get my business or downloads but apps like this deserve to be at the top of the list. It’s perfect.

**Developer response:** Hey there!

Really appreciate the kind words and review. Glad to see you are enjoying Cycles! Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns!

### 2/5 — How do you remove accidental “check”?

*2020-09-11*

I accidentally added an extra completion “check” for the day and can’t figure out to remove it.  Editing everything else is straightforward. So far the only way to correct it is to delete the entry and input the task again. I thought it might be a glitch and reinstalled the app but I’m having the same problem. It’s unfortunate because otherwise this app is great.

**Developer response:** Hey there!

Thanks for taking the time to download Cycles and give it a try. Unfortunately, there actually is no way to "undo" a checkpoint. I have noted this as a potential improvement, but hope that you have still enjoyed your time with Cycles!

Please reach out if you have any concerns to alec.d@pixelogicapps.com

Thanks!

### 5/5 — Great for tracking habits and things to remember

*2020-08-23*

Absolutely love this app for keeping track of habits I need to do everyday and things I just need to remember everyday. I had a brain aneurysm and stroke a year ago and I have almost no memory left so this has really came in handy I can’t recommend enough!!

**Developer response:** Hey there!

This review truly warmed my heart and I am very appreciative for the kind words! Thank you for taking the time to download Cycles and please reach out if you have any questions or concerns to alec.d@pixelogicapps.com!

Thanks :)

### 5/5 — Very Rewarding Experience

*2020-07-19*

I just started using the app and already I’m enjoying the layout and the constant reminders it’s a very organized app , I can see myself reaching my goals with this app

### 4/5 — Great app

*2020-05-18*

This is really user friendly and well desined, great interface, and free. thank you.

Also Wish it had (usable)custom ringtones for each cycle to separate them from all the other notification sounds during the day. That would make it a solid five star.
I love it that there are no exta bells and whistles. Just does the job and gets out of the way. 
Also a widget would be very nice. 
Thank you very much.

**Developer response:** Hey there!

Thanks for taking the time to download Cycles! I really appreciate your feedback and kind words here. 

The custom sound was something I actually had been thinking about as well! Hope to bring this in a future update for you :). With all the new features out in iOS 14 a widget would be awesome to have for this. This is something I also hope to get in a feature update.

Thanks again for the feedback!

### 3/5 — I would give 5 star BUT there’s a problem....

*2020-05-10*

I love this app. I love everything about it. The color theme, it’s free, you can add multiple habits at once. The only problem is the time on it. It’s hard for me to set a time I want to do a habit when the times never work. It’s 11:44 am right now. And I set a new habit I wanna start doing and I set the time for 6 am. It told me that my habit would be ready to be completed in an hour and 2 minutes. Even if it was just a problem with the time zone the minutes don’t add up either. I really hope you guys can fix this problem soon because I really like this app but this problem makes it difficult to use

**Developer response:** Hey there!

Thanks for taking the time to download Cycles :). Sorry to see you are having a bit of frustration here =/. 

The way the notification system works is by setting a starting hour. Cycles then does some behind the scenes work to calculate when and how many checkpoints you should receive from that moment until "end of the day" or (11:59 PM). Do the notifications not come in at all or they are just completely off time wise?

Thanks for the feedback and please feel free to reach out to me @ alec.d@pixelogicapps.com for anymore questions or concerns :)

Thanks!

### 3/5 — Annoying!

*2020-03-07*

Great app, but super annoying when you ignore the notification or don’t log your goal for the day it keeps reminding you to do it obsessively all day and night!

**Developer response:** Hey!

Thanks for taking the time to download Cycles :). Sorry to see you are having a bit of an issue with it. Unfortunately, Cycles is a very notification driven application. Though, I have tried my best to make the notifications meaningful and as un-intrusive as possible, it may still be too much for some. I have been thinking about how I can make some sort of switch that can trigger more verbose notifications or less notifications!

Please feel free to reach out to me @ alec.d@pixelogicapps.com for anymore questions or concerns :)
