## Most critical reviews (5 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — First use required upgrade!

*2023-01-19*

The first setting I wanted to change (length of work time) required an upgrade. This is blatant bait and switch! Deleted!

**Developer response:** I think it is very unfair to claim this is a bait and switch. The App Store description very clearly states that upgrading to the full version of Pommie is required to configure work and break durations (and includes many more features).

### 1/5 — Work out

*2021-01-18*

I just wanted a regular clock. I can’t even set this one. Therefore I can’t rate it anything but one for the look.

**Developer response:** The app is a Pomodoro timer, not a clock. That doesn’t make it a 1 star app; it means you downloaded (for free) something completely unsuitable for your needs. But, hey, thanks for taking the time to lower my app rating.

### 1/5 — Very bad

*2015-12-12*

There are much better free Pomo apps

### 5/5 — Been looking for this!

*2021-01-19*

A straight forward Pomodoro (not a timer). It’s great. And it’s so minimalistic. Just what you need!

### 5/5 — Simple, sensible, elegant

*2017-04-26*

A simple, sensible idea elegantly implemented. (Look up "pomodoro technique" for the full story. Pommie Lite replaces the tomato.) When using this app I'm more focused. I no longer work till I drop or till I get that exhausted feeling. It's amazing how fast the 25 minutes pass. Then I go outside and walk around the block or do some exercises and come back refreshed. I can keep it up for hours and feel great. I love this way of working! I'll probably upgrade to the full version.
