I have never in my life written a review for an app, but I cannot express how much I already love this one. I have been looking for a pomodoro focus timer that can work across all my devices and have been unable to find one until today. Shoutout to reddit for the find, anyways I have been wishing for an app that not only can I see the timer live, edit its times and breaks, can again have across all my devices, but also that could block distracting apps and websites, because I normally just pause the timer and get distracted. So after using the free features and the app itself I started exploring it more and saw that it had a feature to block apps and websites, let me tell you I was shocked. if you are only using the free feature you’re only able to block apps on the Mac and on an iPhone neither, but after some heavy pondering i decided to splurge and get the onetime payment feature and let me you I do not regret it one bit, after playing with it I think it was the best purchase I’ve ever made. I cannot express to you how grateful I am to flow and how excited I am to make this a lifetime use. If I have any updated feelings from using it more I will definitely try to write a new review but my initial is 10/10!!!

Can’t mute the notification sound

Edit: yay they fixed the issue, although still seems to lack to vibration as of now I enjoy this timer on Mac but unfortunately it is unuseable for me on iOS as it does not appear that there is a way to turn off the notification ding without turning off all notifications. In app there is only a single notification on-off setting and putting my phone on silent and having sound off the in notification settings for flow still results in a ding playing when the timer finishes. The only way I have found to turn off the ding is to set my actual phone volume to zero, which is not a convenient workaround. There is also no vibration when the timer finishes which is also disappointing. Another minor slightly-annoying issue is that when the “start flows automatically” setting is on the first flow starts by itself when restarting or changing the length. It does not do this on Mac. I would love to still use this timer in the future and will try to update this review accordingly.

Hi, thank you very much for your constructive feedback! Adding a vibration to the notification as well as the option to disable the notification sound is already on our list and will be implemented soon. We'll also improve the the behavior of the "start flows automatically" setting with the next update. Thank you for your patience and your input on this!If there's anything else, feel free to contact us at [email protected]!— Lea from the development team 💚

Issues with pomorodo in general?
09/15/2021

Laela Overmoyer
I only just got this app, but I've shied away from pomorodo apps in genreal because they're so rigid. What if I start out thinking I want to work for 20 minutes, only to find out that I can, in fact, work 60? I don't want to be reminded to take a break at 20 because then I'll lose motivation. But, on the other hand, if there's a situation where I plan to work for 60 minutes and can only manage 20, how do I work around that? I just think pomorodo should be more flexible, that would really maximize everything. I don't know myself well enough to be able to plan that kind of thing, and theoretically this app would help me to figure that out, but in the meantime I've just got this mental block. I've got ADHD so it feels like every second counts and I need all the motivation I can get, but I also can't put too much pressure on myself and I don't know where the boundary is. It would be great if, at the end of each session, there would be two choices to click on: break, or continue working. You'd get a motivating message if you continue, and a comforting message if you have a break. After a while, with being able to view the completed sessions, you'll be able to see exactly what times work for you and what to expect.

Simplistic and Classical Design, Detailed, and Gentle

This app is perfect for its job:I love the simple and conservative design - it keeps you on track and doesn’t provide any distractions which I tend to find with brighter color themes. Even when on, it appears just like the normal glass of a phone, with a little bit of text that makes it seem comforting and professional. Again, the color palette that is utilized and simplicity of the application in not having any other functions allows for focus to be entirely drawn towards the goal. In terms of detail, it’s difficult to not be drawn towards the non-invasive organization of the screen itself, with minimal buttons and no rectangular wedges anywhere on the screen that counteract the still black background. The dots underneath the timer which represent each session and it’s completion are also a very nice touch that serves to just nudge with images, instead of putting unnecessary words. Also, the statistics page and it’s simplistic and pleasing formatting also encourage one to continue working and keep a relaxed environment. I think everything about it’s atmosphere and design is very conducive to an almost meditative-state of working, which is absolutely perfect when in the case of those (like me) with an exceedingly low attention span. Only few additions that I felt it could use is being able to choose among palettes? I personally love the green, but a wider audience might have a different selection of what they desire for working.
