What's New in Pomo

User reviews

Kept getting a -1 in the timer

The screenshots looked nice, but I didn't have a pleasant experience. First time I launched it I couldn't start the timer.
The fact that it plays sounds even when the phone is in silent mode is annoying.

Great, But....

Best Pomodoro app I've found, since it let's me take a break even if you finish early (love it!!)

But I wish you could enter ALL your tasks for the day. Please add to app!!

does what it says but need to clear history

I like that you can specify a task and have a record of it. Also nice that it works while my ipod is asleep. I would like to be able to do more with the history (e.g., clear it, save it, organize it, export it).

Bugs - has potential

Timer doesnt work when app is closed

Cant clear history

Confusing interface

Ok app but not worth it at this stage

Has potential

This app has potential. I would grab it now before price increase.

I'm currently using both Pomodoro & Promodoro/PomodoroPro for my Pomodoro timers and Pomo has potential to replace both of these.

Excited for the bug fixes. One big bugs that needs addressing is that the timer doesn't 'keep going' when you put it in background.

When I set the timer, put it in background and later return to it, the timer doesn't move. This is a huge bug.

A feature I wish it had is the option to keep the 'ticking' noise on (which is excellent noise btw, sounds like faster tempo version of Pomodoro's tick) while it's in the background.

Sometimes my set involves reading mail or processing todo items on iPhone, it'll be great if I can still hear the ticking. :)

Great job dev. team on this fine app. Fix the bugs and this app has potential to be #1. 
