User reviews

Wouldn’t let me make an account

I love the idea as something motivating for people with ADHD but sadly it wouldn’t let me make an account. It kept saying response status code unacceptable: 405.

Love this app but doesn’t seem to work anyone

I loved the rewards for this app, but as of today, I can no longer make it work. None of the buttons in the app work.

“Failing” if people call you

Love this app! Dogs are super cute and this really helps me be more productive. However, you “fail” the session if someone calls you, even though YOU never left the app. Hoping this gets fixed with the next update!

battery

whenever i get a battery notification to put my phone on low power mode, the session always fails even through i’m still on the app and i didn’t even touch my phone. it doesn’t really help with not using your phone because you can just make the session fail and using the apps which are available for your use.

Disappointed... although I loved it at first

I’ve had this app about a week or so now and I’ve been really loving it, I’ve been using it to as a little cute motivation to help me do my assignments and it’s been working well! However, I had collected about 7 dogs and then suddenly I went on the app yesterday and my dogs were no longer there and I was forced to make a new account?? It was both disappointing and frustrating and although I’ve decided to keep the app for now in the hopes that it was a one-off, I will definitely delete it if it happens again as it’s a little pointless. Please make sure this doesn’t happen again! Thank you!
