Waste of time (ironically)

This app takes you all the way through setup and config before revealing that all features are paywalled. There’s no free level with limited functionality. Pay a subscription or look elsewhere.

Yes, app devs need to eat. But absolute basic functionality with paid extras would help. Or one off payment. Surprise mandatory subscription = instant uninstall.

Getting back on track…

Got the Focus app for quite a few years, used it on and off previously. Left it alone and glad I didn’t delete the app! Tried others which were way too complicated and tedious (not to mention waste even more of my time and concentration!) to use.
Recently got back to using Focus as an attempt to help me get back on track and get on top of the mountain of things to get done. I used it as a personal accountable app for my time used in a day. Working out great although still trying to master the use of it.
Only thing I wish Focus app can do is have the option to set time needed to complete a task rather than have fixed time for a session.

Can’t wait to use it

Watch app has been broken for months

I love this app and use it every day, but it is very frustrating that the watch app crashes every time you respond to a notification to start the next work or break session. I have to constantly ignore the prompt and manually start the timers inside the app by tapping the clock. Yeah it works still but doing this several times a day it’s getting very annoying really fast.

Thank good Luck

Best App Ever!

Honestly, helps me stay focused and love the features! Sometimes it takes a few seconds for my watch to sync to my iPad - but that’s the only thing that I could suggest for improvement.
Keep it up!

Watch app is broken

I love this app and use it every day, but it is mildly frustrating that the watch app crashes every time you respond to a notification to start the next work or break session. I have to constantly ignore the prompt and manually start the timers inside the app by tapping the clock. Yeah it works still but doing this several times a day it’s getting very annoying really fast.

Thanks

Why!

I just started using this app 2 weeks ago but it already says that I have to pay for a free trial. Can you make it free without free trials.

Good work

Nice Application
