Complications feature makes this app great

Theocritus125

This is a really slick and minimalist app that does exactly what I need. It is really nice to have my work sessions available as a complication on the watch, and there is very little lag between the iPhone and the watch. Thanks!


Update broke notifications on Watch

GoodMusic7

This app worked perfectly before but the latest update stopped the vibration to notify the end of a session. I have to keep checking my watch every 1-2 minutes to make sure I haven't gone over - it ruins the value of using the watch app.


Not a very good app

Fu_dog

I assumed for the price it would be more than just a glorified task timer, but at least on the iPhone version that's all it is. And it doesn't even do that very well. Lack of features and the inflexibility of the app puts this into the "Save your money" category.


Simple, clean, and effective

A nice clean interface that helps you stay focused and organize your tasks in a simple way.


Best Pomodoro Timer

Robert Oak

I use Focus everyday and it’s amazing how good it works across all my devices (iPhone, Apple Watch and MacBook 12”). Everything is synced with iCloud and the Apple Watch complication is a great time-saver.


Not bad, but...

Technologizer

...when used on an iPad Pro in partial-screen mode, there's a huge bug/usability issue: When you complete a Pomodoro and leave the app, when you come back, you can't see the dialog which lets you decide what to do next.


Better update but still not reliable

omnizen

Apps notifications about inconsistent. Pauses or stops completely. But it's not as broken as before. Numerous speed and function improvement. This app would also see better reviews if the notification had alarm feature. Sometimes the notification goes off but I don't even really notice, as its short lived.


Really great so far. Syncing too!

tyler_zyco

I came from Pomodoro Time Pro, which has a fairly unreliable syncing system. Focus utilizes iCloud instead, which proves to be very robust. I've used the task sync too. Although it works well, I use OmniFocus as my task manager. Wish it were possible to sync flagged OmniFocus actions to Focus but that won't happen.


Doesn't sync with watch

KT9702

It doesn't connect with my Apple Watch. Says open app on phone. I do. No connection


Excellent App

Maxbender

This App was exactly what I was looking for. Very clean interface with excellent Apple Watch integration. A little buggy but much better than other similar applications I have tried. I have no doubt these guys will improve things along the way. Happy to support their efforts at a reasonable price considering I will use this nearly every day..
