Great App for Focusing on a Task or Project

I love the simplicity and ease of use with this app.
The only reason it is not a five star experience for me is that the notification bell is such a short ding that often miss hearing it. I wish you had the option to make it longer or the options of other sounds to signify the end of a session.

However, I still recommend this app and will continue to use it.

Needs one more thing

Easy to use when you have many tasks to complete. However, most people these days keep the ringer off on their phones and the timer only sounds when the ringer is on. There needs to be an override option where the timer still makes sounds when the ringer is off. Then this would be a 5 star app.

I used it as I brain exercise !

I used it as I brain exercise . I try to focus on each dots as it goes around for 3-5 mns .. w practicing not think in anything but each dot appearing !! Sometimes is hard couse . I have so many things in my head . But that’s an exercise to “keep focus “!

Was not FREE as advertised in APP ADVISE

I sent an email with NO RESPONSE! 😡
I am waiting for my $2.15 to be credited back to my account.

Don't buy!

Poor design, very slow animations, confusing icons, and it's just another useless app.

Not worth $2

I really thought this app would be more than it is. All it is is a countdown. You can't title anything, set goal, or even alter the amount of time it counts. It would be practically useless even for a free app... There are many other options out there. I'd choose one of them.

Keeps me focused

Only bad thing is that it doesn't keep track of your progress even though it says it's supposed to it just says 0 minor glitch the rest of the app works fine

"Todays Completed Dots” Not Tracking after Update

I love this app, and I really enjoyed being able to see the number of dots completed per day on the main screen. A couple updates ago this stopped showing up, the app still logs the number of completed dots if you click on the daily summary setting but can you make it so that its visible on the main screen again. thanks!

This app is a students dream!

This app is amazing! It's so visually pleasing, and the pomodoro technique really works! I've been using it for a little over a year now, and it's been the only thing that's ever been able to combat my v. short attention span.

Quote?

Not finding the "famous quotes to inspire" me....

Don't like it much

Looks pretty, but that's about it.

Focus

This does seem to help me focus, and to remember to take breaks.

Simple and effective

Does what it does!

Good app - one problem

I like the appearance and sound of it and it does the job - one tweak that it seriously needs however is to ring even when the sound for the iPhone ringer is turned off, like the iPhone timer does - so easy to forget you have it turned off - and it's very likely to be turned off if you want to get your work done!

I think it's not useful

Bcz it's just a timer u can do what this app does just by ur regular timer , and u shouldn't pay two dollars for buying this app

Excelente

Muito bom mesmo. Cumpre tudo que promete e é completo naquilo que propõe.

Nice!

Simple and easy to use! Great app, just what I was looking for!

Excelente para su fin

Una simple pero confortante aplicación que ayuda en momentos de estudio.

Me gustaría que agregaran soporte para el español.

Gracias por la aplicación.

Nice app, would be great with small changes

This is a handy and well designed app, great for productivity.

Biggest complaint is that it does not prevent screen lock, which is a deal breaker for me. Will use again when the new version is released that is said to have this feature.

A minor complaint is the color options, would prefer to have an all-grayscale or non-colorful option.

Best Pomodoro app

I've tried around 10 other Pomodoro apps, this one was hard to find, but I can say this one is the best. It's beautiful and has all the features I need (pomodoros, short and long breaks, statistics). Thanks!!! I hope developer will continue its support.
