Octomonk 4+

So I’ve only been using this app for a few hours but I just had to send in a review! I’m enrolled in a virtual school, meaning I do everything on my laptop. I’ve been good at managing my school time, but lately I’ve been enrolled in two of the most horrendous classes known to man - US History and Algebra. Between solving tons of quadratics and memorizing every waking moment of Abraham Lincoln’s life, it was easy to find myself slacking off. Even sitting there doing absolutely nothing seemed like a better option to me than facing hours and hours of the educational menace. I knew that had to change though, if I wanted to make progress. So I did some research and began searching for a pomodoro timer. That’s when I found Octomonk. I love to listen to classical music and I have to study, so combining the two was a godsend. Now I’m being more productive than I’ve been in weeks, and I’m just THAT much less bored! Thank you for helping me enjoy school again! (I don’t think anything can make me 100% enjoy school, but still, anything helps.)

I’ve downloaded and bought almost all of the study apps out there. I don’t ever write reviews- but this one was too good not to praise! This app has been the most effective and useful study app I’ve found!! The characters are cute and the classical music is beautiful. Because they play the music while you’re studying, that’s one less variable I have to think about. Also it feels like they’re playing it for me, so I feel less alone. The characters make adorable noises and are encouraging. I would love a more advanced character development as I move through the levels but it’s great as is too - and would happily pay for it! Overall I love it and highly recommend.
