### 2/5 — AppleWatchでポモドーロモードが動作しない

*2026-08-05*

Apple Watchでのアップデート後の動作不具合です。

1.
ワンタップタイマーを起動してから、終了後にポモドーロモードになりません。そのため、ワンタップタイマー終了後のチェックマークを押しても、自動で休憩タイマーへ遷移しません。

2.
アップデート前は、おやすみモードでもタイマー終了後にApple Watchがバイブレーションで通知をしていました。チェックマークを押すまでずっとバイブレーションが続いていたのが良かったです。
しかし今のバージョンでは、おやすみモードでは一切バイブレーションが無く、おやすみモードを切っても1回しかバイブレーション通知がないです。
前の仕様の方がポモドーロを明確に行えていました。

**Developer response:** こんにちは。
ご報告いただいた内容を確認いたしました。ワンタップタイマーを起動すると、常に通常タイマーとして開始されてしまう不具合については、本日中に修正し、アップデートを配信する予定です。
バイブレーションが1回しか作動しない現象は、タイマーの仕組みを変更したことによるものです。できる限り早く、以前の方式も選択できるオプションを追加いたします。
貴重なフィードバックをいただき、誠にありがとうございます。

### 5/5 — 最高のタイマー見つけました！

*2026-08-03*

MAC上部のツールバーに表示できるアプリをずっと探していました。このアプリは直感的に操作できるし、アラームもベルの音で知らせてくれるので、25分作業に没頭→タスクの完了までのサイクルがすごく気持ちよかったです。かなりフローに入りやすい感じがあります。色々なポモドーロタイマーを試してきましたが過去最高に使いやすいです。課金してもいいなと思えるほどのタイマーはこのタイマー以外にはないと個人的に思っています。

**Developer response:** エビクマ様、こんにちは！
心温まる貴重なレビューをいただき、誠にありがとうございます。
ご使用中にご不便な点やご要望などがございましたら、いつでもレビューやメール（hello@ultimatefocus.app）にてお気軽にご連絡ください。積極的に検討・対応させていただきます！
今後ともよろしくお願いいたします。

### 3/5 — 任意

*2026-06-29*

間違えて止めずに放置してしまった時のために、一時停止をして足してやり直すということができたらいいなという願望。

### 4/5 — シンプルで良い

*2026-06-18*

基本的に操作も分かりやすく気に入ってます。ただ、ポモドーロモードをON、自動集中、自動休憩をONにしても動作してくれません。
設定が間違っているのでしょうか？

### 5/5 — Love the UI

*2026-05-19*

It's so nice to find an app with great UI and a clean simple aesthetic. My online complaint is that if you exit the desktop app, the timer can no longer be moved. Still love it though and will be using it often.

Cheers to productivity!

### 5/5 — とても良い

*2026-05-14*

様々なポモドーロアプリを検討して、こちらはシンプルで使いやすく、良かったのでこちらに決めました。
見た目も良く操作も簡単で、Apple Watchから2タップで作業を開始できるので重宝しています。とてもおすすめなのですが、使い方がイマイチ分からず、ガイドサイトがほしい事、またプレミアムに課金したいのにどこからできるか分からないので教えて頂きたい。
またiPhoneでのセッションの切り替え方法もとても分かりにくかったです。
とても良いアプリだと思うので、改善頂けるとありがたいです。

**Developer response:** こんにちは、はらだ58様！
ご指摘いただいた通り、できるだけ早くアプリ内に使い方を説明する視覚的なガイドを追加するようにいたします。貴重なフィードバックを本当にありがとうございます。

### 5/5 — 대만족

*2026-04-17*

뽀모도로 무시하고 살다가 현실직시해서 앱 찾아보게 됐음. 시간 정해놓고 집중하고 그 시간들을 통계 내주니까, 리뷰 적은 걸로 어떤 일을 얼마만큼 했는지 어떻게 했는지 값이 나옴. 그걸로 계획도 촘촘히 세울 수 있을 것 같아서 대만족. 특히, 직관적인 디자인에, 거슬리는 것 없이 완벽. 좀 더 써보고 무제한 프리미엄 결제할 생각 있음.

### 1/5 — Subscription is not as advertised

*2026-04-16*

I subscribed in hope to use multiple timers but couldn’t be a the app doesn’t feature timers as advertised so nah

### 5/5 — 집중하기 최고의 앱

*2026-04-14, version 3.7.1*

깔끔하게 시간관리하기 너무 좋은 앱

### 5/5 — Worth It

*2026-04-07, version 3.7.1*

I’ve tried a lot of productivity apps - this is one of the best. The analytics and simplicity are exactly what I’ve been looking for. Much love.
