The best pomodoro app

IIIIC

I've tried a bunch of pomodoro apps and they all fall short of my expectations, particularly around syncing between devices and the quality of the watch app. This is the first that I'm happy with. The developers are continuing to improve the app and are very responsive to feedback. Recommended.


Needs An Update

This combined with the Mac version got me through school without losing my sanity. I’m still debating the subscription cost. I don’t mind paying for app upgrades, but $30 a year for something that only works with Apple seems a bit excessive. It’s a wait and see for me right now, but I’m probably going to start looking for a new Pomodoro app that isn’t going to cost me $30 a year.


Subscription for this?

Diegoborgh

I get it, subscription is a good way for developers to get paid reasonable. But for a timing app to need subscription to be usable is stretching it a bit. Not only that, you’re targeting yourself to anyone to create a simple app that does everything you do without subscription and your business model is gone. If you want to get into subscription model be creative and make a product that warrants that, a timer app will never do that.


Great app

Allows me t adjust my preferred time intervals for focus and break.


$7.99 For A Glorified Stopwatch

The Syndicate

No calendar sync support so you basically have to double enter. The watch app won't boot up at all, just spins forever and crashes. There is nothing more I can say. This is a complete waste of money. I feel totally ripped off.


Really great so far. Syncing too!

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.


Look elsewhere .

After 4 months of failed attempts , I gave up on this app. It constantly crashes. Look elsewhere.


So little for so much

DallasKnight

You will ask yourself why did I spend so much for an app that does so little. Pretty much just a timer. Remember I told you so when you blow your money on this one.

This combined with the Mac version got me through school without losing my sanity. It freezes sometimes and the charts on completed Pomodoros are a little boring. But I like the light UI too. I wish I could sync it up with Windows too. No updates since August and it shows.


Only problem is it doesn't work

Aprocks

Worst app ever, I can't use it. When opening it crashes. Syncing it's lagy. If I could recommend one thing in life I would recommend not to buy this app.
