*2025-05-29, version 1.3.13*

### 5/5 — 添加默认倒计时模式

*2025-05-11, version 1.3.13*

希望在任务编辑中增加默认倒计时模式  这样就不用每次开始任务后手动将正向计时修改为倒计时模式了

### 5/5 — This is simply great

*2025-03-05, version 1.3.12*

This is my first review on the app store. You know your app is great, but i want something more form you. I want you to make an app which can track habits, make streaks….with the simple and impacting way like you’ve made this Thiro. (My whole family using ur app btw)

### 4/5 — Not syncing with the watch otherwise perfect app

*2024-12-29, version 1.3.12*

I love the app, but the only problem I encountered is the watch is not syncing with the phone and also it is not displaying the total time I have spent on the watch itself.

### 3/5 — Нету таймера на macOS

*2024-10-24, version 1.3.2*

Не нашел помодоро таймер на macOS, без него не удобно

### 2/5 — Elegante. WIDGET NADA FUNCIONAL ESTA FALLANDO

*2024-10-14, version 1.3.10*

Elegante y Funcional.
Buena aplicación, funciona bien, opcion a compra excelente porque odio las suscripciones.

Urge Mejorar:
- Urge que en el widget "Daily Trends" de estadística podamos separar los objetivos
MUY MAL, NADA FUNCIONAL TODO SUMADO
- ESTA FALLANDO NO REGISTRA EL TIEMPO TRANSCURRIDO

### 5/5 — I love this

*2024-09-23, version 1.3.10*

I never review things but I love Thiro. Clean UI ("aesthetically pleasing), nice stats, archives—worth every dollar. 🤍

### 4/5 — 有时会自动开很多个窗口

*2024-08-15, version 1.3.2*

当我结束一次记录时，app 会打开多个窗口。有时我的休息提醒app（stretchly） 全屏结束后，thiro也会出现这种情况。是否能让thiro有且仅有一个窗口
