### 5/5 — Useful lock screen companion

*2026-07-11*

Love how this app turns my lock screen into something actually useful. Seeing my calendar, habits, and progress at a glance feels motivating, and the customization options make it look really clean and personal!

### 5/5 — Absolutely Love

*2026-07-05*

I am just upset that I haven’t found this app sooner. Been looking for something like this for a long time!

### 5/5 — Goated app and devs!

*2026-06-05*

I emailed the creator (or developer) about how the season widget didn’t reflect when the seasons change accurately depending on my location, and he came with a fix that works wonders!! Haven’t bought the lifetime subscription, but recommend checking it out and supporting the app creator.

### 5/5 — Great App-Once I Got It Working

*2026-05-12*

When I first loaded the app, the instructions were difficult to follow and after a very long time, I simply couldn’t make the app work with my iPhone, which was frustrating. I’ve been using an iPhone for years.  But Daniel Kartsev of One Dot responded within the hour of my Support ticket volunteering to meet me online to get me up and running. I’ve never had any software company do that and do it so quickly and so well.  I love the app.  the dots are so simple and elegant, but very effective to remind me that the clock is always ticking and to prioritize only the important things.  Kudos to Daniel.   I really love the app. I recommend it.

### 5/5 — 배경화면에 설정이 안돼요

*2026-04-13*

사진으로 배경화면 만들으라해서 사진으로 했는데도 계속 다른 사진 고르래요

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요!

문제가 정확히 어떤 상황인지 조금 더 자세히 설명해 주실 수 있을까요?
도움을 드릴 수 있도록, hello@onedot.today 로 연락 주시면 확인 후 안내드리겠습니다.

### 5/5 — Genius way to see my whole year at a glance!

*2026-04-10*

This is such a clever concept! I love having my calendar, habits, and even step count as a beautiful grid right on my lock screen. The "Life" and "Year" views are incredibly motivating—they turn time tracking into a visual game. Setup was easy with the shortcut automation, and it’s completely private with no account needed. The free version is generous, but Pro is worth it for all the views. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to be more mindful of how they spend their days.

### 5/5 — Good app~👍🏻

*2026-04-10*

It's good that there are various wallpapers, and I like the ui that is intuitive.

### 1/5 — Paying twice

*2026-04-09*

This app has a website and it was up before the app was released on the App Store. I payed for lifetime access and then the app gets released and I’m asked to pay for this again? That’s pretty disgusting behavior. 

Signed up on the website just a couple weeks before the app released.

**Developer response:** Hey! No need to pay twice if you already have the web version.

I’ve sent upgrade emails to all premium customers prior to the iOS app launch -- please check your spam folder. If you don’t see it, feel free to reach out at hello@onedot.today and I’ll sort it out for you.

If everything works well, I’d really appreciate it if you could update your rating. 🥲

Thanks!
