Nice, simple app

The thing I like most about this app is it simplicity. It does what it is supposed to do with no bells or whistles. It is supposed break up your work time into chunks of your own devising. When the timer goes off it's time for a short break. You can set the length of the break time as well. You get up and stretch or exercise or do whatever and then you get back to work. This is a great health enhancing app And it is one of my favorites.

almost what I need

I was super excited when I found this app because it’s exactly what I’m looking for. I want to choose how long the sessions are, and the short and long breaks, and I don’t need any fancy extra stuff cluttering the main screen. The only problem is that the notifications don’t work! Yeah, they show up on my home screen, but I have all the sound and vibration settings on (both the app and my phone and watch settings) and yet nothing’s happening. If it would just vibrate my watch when a session or break ends, this would be awesome.

Watch app needs work

The phone app is fine - simple, easy to navigate and set up. The watch app is a different story. It works for a period of time and then just stops. I’ll press “continue” after a work session and it won’t connect with the phone app to start the next break. Which is a key reason I want to use it. I’ve had this happen about 3 weeks ago, and then deleted and reinstalled the app. Unfortunately the same thing keeps happening. If this bug can be fixed, the app is quite useful.

Nice and clean but missing a feature I needed

Love the simplicity of the app but sadly it had one major miss for me: the ability to disable auto-start on the breaks and timers. You can manually pause them, but if I'm trying to finish my train of thought before I take a break, I don't want to interrupt myself by having to reach over to pause the break timer. If that feature were added, I'd re-download in a heartbeat!

Love it

I’ve tried so many apps to keep track of how I long to study and this one is the best! So simple
to change study length and study breaks time.
