Multiple glitches a day
I like using this app because it’s the only one I’ve found with a visual aid that actually keeps me on track. However it’s a headache to use the app glitches literally every time I want to edit the schedule. I have to close and reopen the editing page repeatedly just to get one daily schedule down because time blocks will often disappear after placing them or snap randomly into another spot on the wheel sometimes overlapping other time blocks. The widgets are also constantly glitching making you have to open the app for the schedule on the widgets to display the accurate time. I would love to keep using this app because like I stated it has been very helpful visually but it’s not much help if it won’t stay up date because the developers won’t fix the glitches that have been happening for over a year. I hope a fix will come soon or I might as well start looking for other apps with actual functionality.

Almost perfect except I wish there was an inner and an outer ring
So that I could have subtasks, like an entire block is work but then within that I have xyz meeting
Makes life easier
I use this for everyday tasks but this really helps me get on tack for studying and time management. I love this app so much and have been using it for about 2 years. I highly recommend it!
Mindful calendar
I love that Owaves helps me remember my appointments but it also reminds me to get up and move, spend time family and friends and relax.
Was a good app…
An app I used on the daily… it really helped me plan my crazy schedule. It was free for years then they locked it and want $12.99 a month… so tired of being nickled and dimed by app creators…
only took 3 years
vs my review from 3 years ago, which blasted this app for having no sync ability, the most recent update of 2025 finally added iPad and iOS sync, which means i can finally use owaves on my mac and sync with my phone. finally, it has become useful
Ai…
Extremely disappointed that an app I used to love and have been active on for years is going full ai. I personally enjoy the winters and like polar bears alive but the app developers clearly have different ideas.
AI Garbage
This was a great app that I loved a few years ago. I decided to look into it again to help me focus my life. Only to discover they've jumped on the bandwagon of unnecessary and useless AI that churns through more water and power than we can afford to lose. Not worth supporting
They ruined my favorite app
I’ve used this app for YEARS. I used to recommend it to everyone, especially my neurodivergent friends. They have now taken what was an incredible app with basic free functionality and ruined it. It crashes, the widgets don’t work, and it’s basically unusable now unless you want to fork out a bunch of money and support AI. I’m getting rid of it and no longer recommending it… quite the opposite, I’m suggesting people not get it.

Used to be good
say no to ai
Not useable now
I’ve used this app on and off for many years. It had been great!
Not any more. I had multiple day plans saved, but now I cannot save anything! There’s a paywall to save plans. I deleted a few old plans but STILL cannot save anything! I’ve wasted too much time trying to figure out how many plans I can save without a subscription—can’t find that information anywhere! It is useless if I cannot save plans. If you want to ADD features, charge for the new features! But don’t rip the rug right out from under your long-time users by locking features that we have been using all along!

Everything is a subscription these days.
Coming back to figure this out. Just hate that everything is a party forever deal.
Too many bugs lately
I used to really like this app.
I keep seeing updates with new paid features. Meanwhile the core functionality has become almost unusable. Every time I try to adjust a segment, the segment will start behaving oddly or become unresponsive, then disappear instead of saving, and potentially crash the whole app. I’ve pretty much given up.
Please spend some time fixing these issues before adding any more unnecessary AI.

Been a great addition to my life
Perfect
Fun and visual but buggy
I love to use this to either plan or track my day (my main use is to track my work hours because I have a flexible schedule). It’s very visual and I don’t have to type in numbers, which I really like. Plus I can get a better sense of how I’m breaking up my day. I like that I can customize the icons for the category. The reminders for each block are also nice to pull me out of whatever I’m doing (with ADHD it can be hard to switch tasks). However this app can be very buggy for me. It’s often slow and laggy, freezes up on me quite a bit. It could be that my phone is getting old, but I don’t have issues like this with other apps I use. Will update my review when I have a new phone. Also, I love that it’s ad-free but still free. I would pay a one time fee for pro features but I’m not getting enough out of this to pay for a subscription.

subscription model ruined it
i used to love this app. i relied on it religiously. now it’s riddled with bugs and advertises in-app purchases around every corner. it used to be completely free, and the core features are still great. but i’ve been forced to delete it now that the newer features are locked behind a $70 subscription.

You cannot DRAG past midnight
Ok, no
Concept great. Within 2 minutes discover cannot edit and activity to last past midnight-glaring problem. I simply tried to create sleep to start at midnight and last for more than 4 hours. ByUhH

Disappointing
App has so much potential, I paid for a month subscription but it does not work properly on my iPhone 16 pro max. The digital island blocks navigation and screens look designed for smaller phones. Tried to get a refund from Apple and they declined and haven’t heard back from the developers. Very disappointing

Amazing app, could be a bit better
I just got this app, recommended to me by a friend, and I love it! It lets me visualize my everyday schedule, and with color coding too! I just wish the pro version was a one time purchase rather than a subscription- or at least had a one time purchase option (maybe like 25-30 dollars?)
Honestly I love this app, I just want more options and the only way to do that is through the pro.

Quite good.
It’s not perfect. The notes are lumped together in a block (you’re not allowed paragraphs) and it can be tricky to navigate but overall a useful was of tracking your body clock/energy dips over the course of the day.
