Longtime app user hates update

I used to enjoy seeing how much time I spent on each subject. Now, I can’t find any way to get that data. If I can’t figure out a fix I will stop using entirely after 7 years. If it’s not broken don’t fix it! Edit: I can only see the subject hours for the week not overall.

Favourite Study App!

Favourite study app. Been using it for years! I appreciate the one-time purchase upgrade!

The app automagically calculates and adds onto your break time if you decide to study over longer periods/enter the flow state, which is such a unique feature that other apps don’t have. Developers were quick to respond and you can change the icon if you’d like. Not the biggest fan of AI “art” but this app is the best study timer.

Was liking it until

I was liking it until I had to step away and switched it to brake. When I wanted to skip my next brake it sent me a notification that ‘I’d be having a brake all day’ or something like that and it really turned me off. I don’t want my app shaming me especially if I’m having a hard time studying. Also having a pause/ skip to next block the single button is not always clear what it’s meant to do

Great and simple

Simple app that keeps me accountable when I want to study and not get distracted

Good idea but not always useful

I like the looks and the timer, but it doesn’t show me how many more hours I have to study overall this week and I would like to be a bit more flexible with the subjects I study each day (I would prefer and overall goal in hours for the week)

Very basic features

Can't use the planner tab. Difficult to add subjects

Study plan feature not working

I would give this 5 stars but for some reason the code isn't working for the study plan saying it's null. Please fix, I would love to use it

Love this app

This app is great to stay focus during study sessions. It does a good job at notifying you when you are being distracted and even keep track of your statistics.

Pretty good but it needs shortcuts integration!

Nice app but I really need shortcuts

Very good

I downloaded this app as a high school student when I needed to revise a lot and it stopped me from looking at my phone constantly and it helped me have a break in between so I didn’t get super bored the only thing is that it confused me when I started using but I’m obsessed and highly recommended for any student whether that’s high school , college, university or even primary I really recommend.

Terrible app

They charged me $16 for days!
And there is no feature to unsubscribe!

super in love with this app but it only has one issue.

This app is so perfect perfect perfect, super minimalistic I love it
The only problem is the fact that it doesn’t Allow user to login in or even sign up. I would love to have an account to keep the data, especially my subscription which I’m yet to buy bc I’m just unsure how it would work without an user account.

Really helpful for me

I have been using this app for a little while now. It has helped me immensely with keeping on track when studying and reducing distractions. I love the simple layout, it’s not overwhelming like some other apps. One feature I would love to see added is a pause function or an emergency pause for times like right now where my laptop has crashed, restarted and is now doing an update. I’m not studying but I don’t want to say it’s a break either. Usually if it’s a long period of time like this I’ll just stop the study session but it would be nice if I didn’t have to. Overall really enjoying the app 🙂

Weird but good

I download this app so I can keep track of my study time and breaks. It has many cool features but when I get out of the app it makes a weird loud noise like white noise as if someone was listening to me. I would recommend if the app didn’t have the weird noise.

No vibration only sound

Absolutely no good for Deaf people. Having the phone face down and waiting for a sound. No good.

Calendar sync

Would be great if the premium version could include live caleneder sync. For eg if I am doing a study session from 8-9pm, using the live stopwatch, it also saves on to my iPhone calendar, rather than having to create it as a separate event

Make study sessions timed by the app also sync onto device calendar when session is finished

Doesn't work

App keeps crashing on computer and phone. Don't waste your money. And there is no app support.

Phone go brr

My favourite part is when it gets mad at me for picking up after a notification 🤣 Mb

Keeps crashing

Not optimised for IOS 16

Amazing!

Paid app, but one of the best for timers
Would be nice to have an easier way to view the subjects you studied today without having to click through a couple menu items

Would also be nice to have an all black theme even in the menus
