Almost perfect!

EDIT BELOW THESE PARAGRAPHS!

I bought this app after using the free version for a couple of weeks. The full version is super-nice and really does help me keep track on whatever I need to do (the colour changes help too, since I can just look up and see if it's red=work, blue=free time.)

However, there is one small issue. I've set different sounds for each type of timer, but every time the timer changes (i.e. from a pomodoro to a 5 minute break), the type of sound is still the same as the previous thing. Like it would still be ticking through my break, even though I set break sounds to "cafeteria".

Other than that, great app! Highly recommend this method to anyone who has troubles with time management. I am not back on track as of yet, but this is one of the best strategies I've used to get my life back together.

EDIT 12/05/2016: It would be absolutely lovely to have an icloud sync between my iPad and my iPhone, so the timer would start on either device and keep the same information. This way, I won't lose track of my pomodoros as well as keep myself on schedule more (if it's easier, it'll work better).

I was thinking something like Apple's native notes software, where if you type and create a note on one device it almost immediately appears on all other devices, so that you can see it live type. If applied to this software I think that it would help me out a lot so I don't need to take my iPad with me on my break- I can just have the timer and alarm on my iPhone.

Thanks again!

Would love a better vibration

I bought this app today and it is extremely useful to me for my studies which I do at intervals. However, there's an important caveat. Since I study inside the university library I can't use the alarm sound so I keep my phone in the silent mode and use the vibration option. I request the developers to improve it by making the vibration longer (even better, if the user can choose), it is too short to get noticed.

Thanks for the great app.
