### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-01-25*

I’ve been looking for an app like this! I’ve tried many habit tracker apps and this one is by far the best. When I stumbled across this app I thought surely I would need to pay for all these cool features. But nope! There is a paid version, but the free version is great! It has everything you need and want. Beautifully designed and well thought out. I checked out the other apps from cal, I also love Passa, the flashcard app! Cal is an amazing app designer and developer, huge props to her.

### 5/5 — easily the best tally tracker and nicest looking as well !

*2026-01-15, version 2.1.5*

i downloaded a bunch of tally trackers and this is the only one i kept. everyone i have showed this to has asked what the app is. no ads, clean ui, the free version is fantastic. i will ABSOLUTELY look at getting the pro version if i end up needing the extra trackers!

would love if there was an android version too, but i get that you’re an iOS developer :) keep it up!!

### 5/5 — Excellent response from Cal

*2026-01-08, version 2.1.3*

I had a problem with payment for a year and messaged Cal who responded quickly requesting more detail. He thanked me for identifying a bug, resolved the issue and all in his pleasant jaunty style. Still getting to know App but loving the feel and format.

### 5/5 — Just what I needed

*2026-01-05*

The app gives you the basic tools to track and time the activities you want to do. The data visualization is beautiful and the app is easy to use. Would reccomend.

### 5/5 — So far, so good

*2026-01-04*

I want a relatively minimal and Timespent checks most of those boxes with a beautiful design. I also like that you can share on social media in lieu of money for extra features, but I did pay for one month anyway while I try it out because I think it’s worth it.

Sharing directly from the app to social media itself gives errors, but I emailed the developer already and I’m sure they’re working on it. 🙂

### 5/5 — Built with intention and care

*2026-01-02*

This app is functionally and aesthetically one of the best iOS applications I have ever come by. Thank you for the love you’ve put into the app, Cal. It shows.

### 5/5 — Please!!

*2025-12-31*

CAN YOU HAVE THE ABILITY TO SEARCH within EACH SESSION CATEGORY individually? Like my chores file, I'd like to be able to separate out each item that I've done by simply listing that one item and all the dates that I've done that one item pop up. Thank you!

The best timer/to do app in the store!

**Developer response:** ty for being a part of it 💪🤝

### 5/5 — ❤️❤️❤️❤️

*2025-12-28*

This app is so helpful! I am trying to change habits for 2026 and become an overall more organized person, and this app has helped so much to instill good habits.

### 5/5 — Great Design Again!

*2025-12-15, version 2.0.8*

I had the previous app “sessions” . This one is just as great. Definitely a great tool to have !

### 5/5 — everything i need in a habit tracker!

*2025-12-09, version 2.0.8*

the gui is so pretty, minimalistic but also super functional! i’ve been using it to track my time spent on knitting certain projects and i loveeee the heatmap calendar view of everything! super useful and exactly what i wanted/needed in an app!

### 5/5 — Eye Opening

*2025-12-07*

This app has helped me visualize the time spent doing my every day tasks, which was a shocker at first. After seeing the time spent on these tasks, it really made me take a step back to reflect. This app is exactly what I needed to put certain things from my life into perspective. Thank you so much, Cal!!

**Developer response:** i'm glad you're finding it useful! 😊

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2025-12-02*

AttenIf you've been looking for a life organising app, timespent is the app for you. I love using it to track my progress, keep track of habits, and build new ones. It's completely free with no ads, and is beautifully designed.
I seriously highly recommend this app!!

**Developer response:** tyty sending good vibes your way ☀️

### 5/5 — Promise and progress

*2025-11-29, version 2.0.4*

The developer of timespent has shown a lot of promise. The app is improving regularly. Give it a try!

### 5/5 — Love it🥲🩷

*2025-11-28*

Really help me know what I do or use through out the days of my life. Helps me drink water and other stuff thanks for creating this app.

**Developer response:** yes stay hydrated!! 🚰🌊

### 5/5 — Great Design - Lightweight

*2025-11-26*

It doesn’t feel like there’s anything not needed or distracting in this app. It’s good a great set of activities to get you started with and is fully customizable. Plus it’s less than 20mb and looks sharp. More apps need to be like this one.

**Developer response:** ty for noticing the bundle size haha 💯

### 5/5 — this app is SO aesthetic

*2025-11-25, version 2.0.4*

it has given me so much inspiration for my projects haha. and also it’s design is just superb for what it’s intended to be used for

### 5/5 — Game changer

*2025-11-24, version 2.0.3*

Really… you gotta try this out!

### 5/5 — I Adore This App

*2025-11-21, version 2.0.2*

I love the new app

### 5/5 — Everything you need.

*2025-11-18*

I’ve used so many different apps that either track your time doing something, journaling, notes, etc. - none of them had everything. This app does. I only need to use this one to be productive. It’s easy to use, it’s simple to look at, and it’s helping me stay consistent with practicing music. Download it now, it’s incredible.

**Developer response:** hope all your music dreams come true! 🎶💛

### 2/5 — Inferior

*2026-05-28*

A way, dumbed down version of the iOS app. I would’ve been better if it was just downloadable on Mac as an iPad or iPhone app. But, this is just horrid. It’s very bare bones, and it’s just an app to fill an app.. the UI is terribly ugly, and doesn’t have its charm of the mobile ones. Yes, it functions quite well, but is missing most of the features… the translucency is so ugly.
Just revert it, in my opinion. Make it and iPad or iPhone app.

### 4/5 — Lovely studying app

*2025-11-16, version 2.0.1*

Lovely clean interface that’s minimalistic without feeling clinical, and pretty without being distracting. I appreciate the simplicity and the fact that it’s free!  Only thing is i would appreciate if you could view your trends of each habit/activity collectively, like how much time you’ve spent on everything each day/week/month.

### 4/5 — Simple, Effective, Promising

*2025-09-03*

I really like this app. I love the simple design, and the detailed statistics for activities. The arcs feature is great for habit tracking and for habit stacking. (The stacking feature is not one I’ve seen elsewhere.) Finally, I love how easy it is to give feedback through the app for feature suggestions, etc. I’m pretty new, but it looks like I’ll be enjoying it even more once I have some more data logged to work with. I haven’t had any significant reservations yet, which is a first for me in tracking apps.

**Developer response:** tyy glad you are enjoying the app! lmk if you have any q's or feedback ... or if there's anything i can do to earn the fifth star 😂 hi@glasshouse.so

### 5/5 — Great For Musicians!

*2026-08-23*

As a musician this app is a great way to keep myself accountable on how often I practice. I like that you can track multiple things such as fundamentals, audition rep, etc… it’s a nice way to visualize just how much progress you’ve really made.

### 5/5 — Love the app - question though

*2026-08-08*

This app has made it easy to remember goals and hold yourself accountable. Love the design as well and every feature actually feels polished. Only question I have - is there a way to see a full calendar of the month where it shows all the activities you did on each day? I do a lot of different physical activities (lifting, jogging, yoga, horseback, etc.) and it’s disjointing to have to scroll through each activity’s calendar to see if I’ve done too much on any day or if I should do more that I lacked on earlier in the week. It would be awesome to be able to see a calendar or even just one week that it shows you the spread on each day for all of the activities you’ve done! 

Anyway amazing app and thank you to the solo dev 🙏

**Developer response:** im glad you like the app and ty for the suggestion! so there are weekly/monthly recaps but that only shows when the time period is over. i think there could be a way to turn the "My Day" tab into something that can show progress by week/month and can look into it soon! i am actually working on a new app right now because i didn't have much success in marketing this one (😭) but will hopefully have time to switch back sometime next month. :)

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for

*2026-07-12*

This app is pretty much perfect. It’s so affirming to see how much time I spend on the things I want to be doing as opposed to just beating myself about my screentime. Plus it’s so great-looking which makes me want to use it. I’m so happy I found it! Thank you for making it! Oh and the homescreen widgets have been key so paying for premium is totally worth it and it’s also very reasonable. Totally recommend!

### 5/5 — Download this NOW!

*2026-07-08*

Game changer for productivity and so simple. It helps me keep track of how long I spend on homework and my goals so that I have an easy place to see data on how much time I spend being productive. Boosts confidence if you track a lot of time. Couldn’t recommend more!

### 5/5 — Simple and useful

*2026-05-24*

It does what it promises to do and keeps it simple and concise. Just perfect.

### 5/5 — A Game Changer!

*2026-03-28*

I’m so thankful to have found this app! I’m a student who has to log hours spent working on material, and this is the only thing I use and have been able to stick to! The ease of navigation and the simple (but effective) editing options available are so appreciated. I wouldn’t be able to do my weekly practice without it, and have recommended it to others! Thank you so much.

### 5/5 — Special app

*2026-03-13*

This is the only “activity timer” app that has clicked for me and I’ve tried a lot of them. This Is a Very specific app that is made with passion creativity and love. I don’t want to overstate it but this app more than any other app feels (to me) like a work of art. I had somewhat used a previous similar app by this dev and liked it but it didn’t click. I downloaded the new version just cuz I’m a bit of a nut for apps. I expected it to be more or less the same, so I didn’t really play with it much. But I noticed how often it was being updated and even I dipped back in I was really blown away all the unique and interesting functionalities that had been built in. I continue to be surprised by the ways this app grows and changes… offering more possibility to users whilst never straying  from the core functionalities that drew us in in the first place. Kudos

### 5/5 — Use daily!

*2026-03-06*

I LOVE THIS APP!!

The best timer/to do app in the store!

fyi developer, can you include SEARCH WITHIN an activity.? For example, in activity "chores" I would like to search and single out just one item, say "trash", to see what dates I did that specific activity. Many thanks!

**Developer response:** ty for being a part of it 💪🤝

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2026-02-05*

As a forgetful person that needs daily reminders to accomplish my tasks, this app is wonderful! So user friendly and I love how customizable all the features are!

**Developer response:** Yay glad you like it! If you like using Plan Reminders look out for an updating coming soon that will let you customize them even further 👀🔜

### 5/5 — Great for project pan

*2026-01-29*

This is a great app to track usage goals on my products. Would highly recommend it for any goal tracking!!!
