Pomodoro Timer: Stay Focused App Reviews

I love that I can change the length of my focus time, the colors, and the sounds. Nice interface. One additional thing I would like to see is some kind of progress bar or circle visually showing how far I am into the session.

Works great, have effective user interface and nice design. It will be "the productivity killer app" if some essential features are added : 1) possibility to name and assign categories to pomodoros 2) possibility to add notes to pomodoros 3) possibility to plan and schedule pomodoros for the current and next days

Nice for concentration. Very good for working in writing and reading

Simple, yet functional app that allows you to follow your stats. I also like how the app is designed. Paid version was worth buying it.

Nice Design but power consumption is far to high

Over the years I have been trying out many different apps for keeping track of my Pomodoros, but always fell back to using a simple mechanical timer. This app finally hits the sweet spot between configurability and simplicity that I was looking for.

Contrary to the change log the app is not optimized for the iPhone 6.

Really nice design. Does what it should do. With an option to only autorestart breaks it would be perfect.

Useful and effective

It would be even better if it was possible to pause and start the timer from the Notification Center.

I really wish, that you could control the timer (start/stop/pause) from within the "today screen" widget. Currently you can just see the timer, but to control it you have to unlock (enter password) first. Also it would be useful to be able to add 5 minutes to the current pomodoro if you want to finish something before the break. otherwise I really enjoy everything about it!!

I really like this app, it does a good job of keeping me focused. Yet there are many glitches. The timer stops when the app runs in the background. Lately, the different sounds for breaks or resuming work are mixed up. Furthermore, the "email us" button doesnt work. I would have preferred to message the developer directly instead of giving a bad rating, but if thats not possible, then so be it.

Nice app!

This app is a perfect pomodoro app. It had background ticking and alarm when timer is done and it has a gorgeous design that allows you to easily adjust how long the session should be. All in all just great!

This is a nice Pomodoro tracker. It really helps me be more productive. The graphs (daily totals, etc) help keep track of progress, and various aspects of the app (bell sounds, duration, etc) can be customized. My only complain would be that it is somewhat buggy on the iPad: the app does not recognize very well when switching between portrait and landscape modes, and e.g. the timer in landscape mode does not display the current Pomodoro totals, and the plots seem to stop working as well. If these issues are addressed, I would give it 5 stars without hesitation.

This has a nice UI and thankful stays to the point with just the right number of customizable options (length if time, sounds - the cat meow never fails to make me jump!) its a very useful app. It does have a big problem that I hope the developer can improve; power consumption. If I use it for more than 4 hours Ill have a dead battery whereas I normally last the whole day. And that is with the screen off and ticking off. Not sure what can be done but Im sure iOS provides capabilities.

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 its red=work, blue=free time.) However, there is one small issue. Ive 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 Ive used to get my life back together.

love the app! losts of customisation and stuff. keep the good work.

I used trial version for a few days and had to upgrade to full version. Works great and I can customize mu alarms and sounds. Highly recommended.

I tried a few Pomodoro apps and found them too complicated and annoying. In addition to the simple here are some other features which I like about this app: - ticking sound helps me focus (I turn it off during the break so I associate ticking with focused work). - Daily goals. It feels good to fulfill my daily Pomodoro quota so that keeps me motivated. - The chart feature helps me keep things in perspective (I never forget about a lazy week that I had and feel good when keeping the numbers up) I hope you like it
