Ratings and reviews

This is a great alternative to Microsoft's focus mode. A lot more control and options without any of the glitches that Micro's have. My only critic is that the app only notifies you via vibration, even when all the sound options are on. But overall, use this app instead of focus mode if you need the concentration.

This app saved my life and grades so many times. I had a late diagnosis of adhd and started college during covid without figuring out any executive functioning skills. This app played a huge part in teaching me how to remain productive, complete assignments, study, and just get into the productive zone. From being unable to sit down for more than 5 minutes, this helped me build up to 2 hours and even longer. Just remember that it's not a cure; it's a tool.

Great app, but! (1) Purchased on Android phone and I need to sync with my business iPhone. Won't allow me to login to sync without purchasing another subscription. (2) The "timer running notification" sound plays every second while it's counting down. So, you will hear a beep (or whatever sound you choose) 60 times in a 1 minute session, for example. *I only expected a sound once the timer started, not throughout the entire session. 🤔 -3 stars
