1. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Help!. How do you set up your account on this app? There isn’t an option in the app anywhere.

2. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Pay way if you want any actual use of this app. There’s a large pay way for basically any use of the app, you can use the time but to change your break time, app blocker, or calendar syncing you have to pay.

3. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   This is the worst game. Fox it.. I hate this app. It’s nice but girl I ain’t paying money for a timer

4. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Pro required to onboard. Requires me to sign up with pro subscription to start using the app.

5. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   paywall. the app seems pretty good but too many features are behind a paywall.

6. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   SCAM. This app is a total SCAM, I was offered a $12.99 deal on a yearly subscription and then charged nearly $50 - do not download this app, look elsewhere.

7. ★★★★★saving, exporting or sharing the result fails

   Family Sharing Doesn’t Work. App looks great and is fun to use, especially on the Apple Watch Ultra. I purchased the Lifetime Family Sharing Service ($59.99) and I’m unable to share it in iOS. Our family shares all of our purchased apps but for some reason this app doesn’t show up under the “shareable” apps in Settings. This is so disappointing. I have reached out to the company today. Hoping to hear back soon.

8. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Completely in-app purchase. Yeah, no. This app is the usual buy-before-use model. And the refund process doesn’t work - my iPhone subscription says it’s cancelled as of one year from today, but is otherwise not refundable. I do have an email out to the developers; we shall see if I get a response.

9. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   help. to much monies

10. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Pay to Pay for Pay. Literally timer if you don’t want to pay

11. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    😭. I ended my session two minutes early and it gave me a sad tomato 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

12. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    paywall :(. paywall :(

13. ★★★★★a needed feature is missing

    Each Pomo profile should be fully customizable. Each promo profile should have its own customizable cycles and timers. Also, Sounds should be available on Apple Watch.

14. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    App crashes. I've JUST gotten this app and I have not been able to open it without it crashing I do think the app is good but I cannot open it

15. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Lost any desire to study while avoiding “please pay me banners”. I just wanted to study and instead of simple app I got 3 subscription, discount and other banners. In the end I wanted to change tag and it didn’t work, so I just used a plain ios timer and happily studied

16. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Double payment. I requested developer for having an issue regarding double payment. I purchased lifetime version during free use period. But I found I paid monthly subscription fee though I purchased lifetime ver. so, I asked this issue of developer through their official CS mail. BUT THEY DON'T EVEN CARE and REPLY AT ALL.

17. ★★★★★trial charges and refunds

    Setting to make the tomatoes red?. I just clicked “suggest a feature”, not rate this app. Also not sure why I was charged 30 usd to start a free trial. Not cool.

18. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Directions?. All I wanted is to set up a few timers with breaks. For example: 5 min stretch/15 sec rest to repeat 10 cycles. Pretty simple. For the life of me I could not figure out how to set this up. I checked the help function… no answers. No tutorial section. Nothing. I set one 5 min timer & it never made a noise to let me know it was finished. The app is not intuitive & has virtually no directions. Very disappointed based on the amount of reviews.

19. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    No free version, misleading.. They were not upfront about the costs AND only showed them after I went through the whole splash process. Waste of time. I either have the money or I don't.

20. ★★★★★a needed feature is missing

    NEEDS AN ALERT AT THE END!. Almost useless unless you offer an option for an alert (vibrate or choice of noise) at the end of the session. Otherwise I’m stuck looking at the timer every few minutes (NOT FOCUSING) or working for longer than my session time, totally defeating the pomodoro technique. Cancelling my free trial and won’t be purchasing.

21. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Completely useless timer app, can’t even choose the duration of the timer. The free version is basically useless. can’t even choose the length of your timer. Also you can delete the premade times of 10, 25, 45 min etc but you can’t add them back. So you end up with a single 10 minute timer. Just stick to the default Apple clock app, because this thing is total useless. Also takes 100Mb space of download for a what is basically just a countdown. what a joke of an app.

22. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Where is Mac version?. It says Mac support coming soon, soon when?

23. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Waste of time. No tutorial, just 2 swipes. If I would have paid $30 for this I’d be royally ticked off.

24. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Pomodoro. Sound is made at the onset of turning on the timer, not at the end. There is no setting to modify. This problem.

25. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Issues. In this new version there are a lot of basic issues. App locking not perfect, the white noise is going off.

26. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    No countdown. Just cancelled for a subscription. When I started , it worked great with a countdown timer. It was like racing against the clock. It’s now changed to an ongoing timer starting at zero that you can stop and start. Not helpful at all.

27. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Constant Ads. If you use the free version, it constantly prompts you to upgrade to paid. I just want a simple timer, but it gives so many popups that it is impossible to use. Swipe right for calendar! Upgrade now! Oh my god, I don’t care!

28. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    i don’t like the misleading. the app is completely paid and you can’t use it untill you subscribe which is not mentioned anywhere in the description

29. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Keeps crashing!. Keeps crashing every time I try to edit the whitelist! There’s not much customizability, even with the pro version. There’s no way to change background colors or text colors which is a huge negative for me.

30. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    good but. i really struggle with procrastination and focusing. this app helps, i love the incentive of little tomatoes, but i hate that i have to spend so much money to have blocked apps. most other focus apps offer it for free. i would love if you could try to offer that as well, but otherwise i think i have to delete this app and fond a better one.
