It would be perfect, but for some reason, most of the time when I finish a session the time is logged for the day after rather than the day I log the time on? It fixed itself a few times but then went back to logging for tomorrow rather than today, and I'm not sure why it would do that.

Hi, thank you for trying Striving: Forest phone lock. Can you please check if you’ve enabled everything in ā€˜Settings > Improve Focus’? If you are still having issues, could you send us your focus log (Settings > send log) after a bad focus session? Please reply to us with your game ID after the log is sent.

It was so good! I didn't expect it cuz most of the other apps were not that good, but I tried this out and it was one of the best apps I have ever experienced! When you get out of the app accidentally, some apps would restart your whole session, but this one doesn't. The timer keeps on going. I hope this is safe though, and I have not much doubt. It also motivates me somehow. I hope to see no adds, though. I don't review often, but this is so good I couldn't resist. It's an excellent app.

edit -1 more feedback - see as a user of another timer ( milki) app with 2489hrr of promos, l can say that the streaks , charts , and the competition are the main motivation things . that's why i was able to do 2489hr of focus.see my suggestion is that put the streaks on the front screen on charts section (main motivation.) and also we want to see how other user are doing like competition thing - top 10 of the day-how have done 5he most hrs with their hrs and name . & improve charts.see milki
