I keep having issues with being logged in but not having premium, which I purchased. Customer support is responsive and helpful with the issue. I have switched back to Google workspace and use a visual timer still. I would prefer all my reminders, tasks, notes, and events to be in one place rather than on 4 apps. Engross is a good option, I hope for engross to evolve to include more features: month view, time blocking, webversion, etc, so it would be more practical with multiple devices.

The pro version is only $1.99 so a person can't complain. It does seem like all the features of person would actually use are in that pro version. It would be nice to have a free trial. I really liked being able to divide each task into self labeled parts. However, the slider underneath the task is not easy to advance. I kept trying to mark off a section completed and it kept checking the task as done. The statistics page on how often I was distracted could be a great tool.

So good first: If you're looking for an easy-to-use app that'll give you all the Pomodoro perks but with also a stopwatch for tasks you don't know the duration of, this is it. And I love the "distracted" feature, simple AND useful! Thank you for the reply, team. Yes, once you fix the multiple devices cloud sync, I'd happily score it a 5 star. It's become an essential part of my life!

Hi Francisco, We're really sorry for replying so late & for the inconvenience. We do have plans for a full data sync in the app, currently it only backs up the data to cloud. We will try to have this feature & sync with GCal asap. If you have any suggestions for us or if you face any kind of issue, please let us know at support@engrossapp.com.
