Fun Concept, But Needs Fixes

I’m giving this app 2 stars because the concept is actually fun and appealing. I like the simplicity of it, which is exactly what I was looking for in a productivity app.
However, for a $3.99 app, I expected it to be more reliable and functional. The main thing it needed to do (properly setting and keeping labels organized) didn’t work as intended. Everything was fine, but before long the labels started getting mixed up and all the timer labels ended up overlapping or syncing incorrectly. This happened not even 30 minutes after setting everything up, which was really disappointing given how basic that core feature is supposed to be.

literally perfect

my productivity has never been better. no frills, no overwhelm. just put the phone down and Do The Thing

Doesn’t work in the background

Why do I have to put my phone down? Sometimes I want to check my email o use a productivity app or just use it for reading ebooks

no tags

the ability to select a tag for focus categories is not working. I have tried to update, delete and reinstall, and reset my phone with no luck.

No dark mode

Honestly, lacking such a simple feature makes the app very unfriendly. It literally makes it unusable to me.
