Almost perfect — one frustrating bug

The Focused Work - Pomodoro Timer doesn't function very well with macOS 27 GoldenGate. I assume the app is no longer being actively developed, especially since the last update was two months ago. If you try to save a configuration change, you'll quickly realize that it may be time to find an alternative to the Focused Work - Pomodoro Timer.

Great

This is a really great app. The only critique I have is that it doesn’t give us more options for chimes and sounds. I’m so used to hearing the same chime noises that my brain pretty much ignores them sometimes.

Bueno pero costoso

La única razón por la que no le coloco las 5 estrellas es porque me parece que su precio no es el adecuado, incluso es lo que hace que quiera buscar otra app similar más económica
