Ratings and Reviews
Cool app but one thing holding it back
So first of all this app is super cool! I like the simplistic style and the settings it offers, and I really appreciate the differentiation between the pomodoro mode and the stopwatch mode. There’s something that’s really holding it back, though, which is that there doesn’t seem to be any sort of notification or alert from the app when a focus or break timer ends? This confused me, especially because the app asks for notification permissions. It kinda defeats the purpose a little because if I go over the time without checking the app on my phone I’ll never know unless I check, and if I’m on a break on my phone it still doesn’t let me know when that break ends. I’d also appreciate it if the timer itself showed up in live activities, if that’s possible, instead of it just saying “Focus”. Other than that though like I said the app’s super cool!
Great but Can be Exceptional With A Couple of Tweaks
I use the Mac version of your app. I enjoy using it and think it's a great addition to improving my productivity. However, two tweaks can make this application exceptional:
1. The History section of the app currently doesn't group like sessions. To illustrate this, consider that I do 3 study sessions in a day. When I'm done with the first session, I input Finance. For the second session, I input Coding. The final session is another Finance session. The history will show me each session but doesn't allow me to group sessions and automatically calculate time accrued.
I think having a feature that would facilitate the above suggestion would do wonders for users like me who are data driven. 😊
2. The app has the feature to pause either a break or a focused session. However, the time accrued during the Pause is added to the time tabulated for Focus when a the timer is stopped. It would make better sense if the time from the session is paused is left out of the final tabulation of focused time.
