Ratings and Reviews
Execllend for focus
This application is great and really help you to time box your tasks, so that you are forced to keep to a schedule. Love it!
Some improvement ideas for the developers:
Pls make it easy to set custom times. You should be able to set a time from the main screen without having to create a new task to go along with this. I often find that I dont need a list of tasks, just the ability to easily set a time and press start :)
This is very bad.
There is a lot of big issuses:
1. It's very hard to navigate.
Because it's hard to navigate, it actually makes it practically useless to me. And some of these other problems might actually be already solved, but nobody can use it because it's hard to navigate.
2. (To a normal user,) you can only set 60 minute timers.
If I didn't have miraculously and accidentally figured out how to (almost) set it to another number, I could only set 60 minute timers. (And even afterwards, I can't do the things I'm trying to do.) I'm a person who can easily learn and figure out things that's not taught to me, and still I had trouble doing anything.
3. No alarms.
You just simply can not set alarms. Why, honestly, why?
This app is not good, and you shouldn't have to pay for all of these features. There is even more things missing from this bad app but if I was going to say everything, you would be reading this review for hours before you finish. What's really surprising is that I'm a really kind and fair person, the exact opposite of people who dislike videos, but this dragged me down so far that I'm literally writing a 1-star review. Please don't get this app.
Developer Response ,
Please get in touch with us at “support@xwavesoft.com” so we can take a look at why this is happening. There are answers to all these questions. Thank you.
the timer should improve to have a full-screen version
The design of this application was nice in both function and aesthetic, however it is kind of annoying if you want to open a full screen timer to enhance the focus because it does not have one.
Full-screen timer should be an option avaliable for future development —— just as it is avaliable on the phone, so the time left can be enlarged into bigger size that will create a sense of urgency as well as clear all distraction on the screen —— See? Perfectly in fit with its title "Be Focused!"
