This app is amazing. I've tried a lot of different focus apps, trying to find what's right for me and this won. There are so many features that this app has & most of it is free except for some color themes & a couple more advanced options. There's a to-do list that is really helpful & you can even put your tasks in order of priority. There aren't any ads & it's a simple yet effective design. You can set the timer to pomodoro or stopwatch which was really helpful for me. I highly recommend!

The app is almost perfect. But the sub tasks and comments are not regarded in the history section. Also, task names should be like labels by which you can sort in history section. I would also like a more elaborate way to choose what happens when you say, pause a running task. Maybe it should discard the pause if it's less than a minute; otherwise, it should just start a new run for each pause. It would also be nice to include seconds along with hours and minutes to prevent certain anomalies.

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.
