| 2024-04-04 |  | | Simple and easy to use, yet has everything I need available in a short number of button clicks. The only downside is that it doesn't allow any actions from the lock screen. It buzzes most annoyingly while you hold your phone in your hand and try to unlock it, then find the app etc. Would be nice if it had OK/Extend buttons accessible directly from the lock screen like alarm does. |
| 2024-02-23 |  | | Does what I need it to do, but I wish you could set the rest timer for any amount of time. I'm using it for my eyes, 20 minutes looking at the computer and 20 seconds looking away, but I have to set the rest for a minute and just estimate 20 seconds. Also it is more reliable if you push stop on your timer before starting it each time, even though it is already in stopped status, fyi. Oh and I haven't had luck with lowering the volume but it's OK for me since I get alerts on my watch |
| 2023-09-25 |  | | It's got a lot of good features and many will find it useful. I wish that the paid version integrated with Microsoft To-do, Planner, Teams and/or Outlook so that I could fit the pomodoro technique into my professional work flow by importing my tasks and setting my Teams status to busy/focusing while the timer is running. |
| 2023-09-21 |  | | Great app. I'm using it to remind me to get up during my workday and stay hydrated when I stand. I'm up at work far more than I used to be, and I can already feel my fatigue levels dropping. The ads are unobtrusive - in face, I wouldn't mind more to support the app. I will probably get the paid version. |
| 2022-08-06 |  | | I'm shocked such a quality app appears in the play store. Its so clean and no gamification to get you to pay for junk, it really feels like an F-Droid app. New version has an ad on homepage but it's not very intrusive. I hope it doesn't continue to deteriorate in quality, but if it does I can just downgrade to earlier versions. |
| 2022-02-06 |  | | Great concept and I like the simplicity of it. It gets confusing sometimes as to where the session status is. It doesn't continue with the 4 sets of 25 minutes, in my example, unless I go into the app and force it to continue. |
| 2021-12-20 |  | | A very convenient timer with the ability to adjust the time of both the pause and the pomodoro itself, you can automatically start them or manually. Well, yes, the technique helps to focus on the case, so the application is useful. |
| 2021-08-04 |  | | Very helpful. Used correctly, it'll keep you on task. And it plays well with other apps. It loses a star for having an oversimplified interface that makes it more complicated to learn all the ins and outs, and for having no internally customizable ringtone. |
| 2021-05-04 |  | | So far, this is the best Pomodoro timer that I've used... It allows your data to be backed up, has different colour tags for different activities, allows you to adjust the work and rest durations according to your needs and most importantly, has no ads. Love it! |
| 2021-01-10 |  | | Sometimes the alarm doesn't ring? Turn off battery optimization for the app. For more info: Go to settings - about app - if notifications do not work. Thanks for replying to my review, dear developer! I've turned off battery optimization and I'll see if that solves the problem. Other than that, perfect app! So simple but useful at same time. |
