Concentrate! timer App Reviews

Love this app. I cant figure out how to get it to show on my lock screen though!

I love the idea of this app, but is it possible to choose longer work time ? Like 3 or 4 hours? Or custom hours ?

What a great app! To the other reviewers you can change the time and if you just leave it open and your iPhone locks it will still show up. I use it to study and force myself to be disciplined for those 48 minutes.

Love the design, very clear and easy to glance at to check the countdown.

An optional seconds ticker sound and a counter to count number of sessions would be useful additions.

This is a great option, especially for iPad 2 users. The app rotates so you can stand your iPad up on the desk with a smart cover to show your time while you work. A great addition would be integration with calendar to show upcoming appointments. Otherwise, a clean, elegant option for any iDevice.

This timer has a great simple interface that makes it good for the "Pomodoro" method of task management. The local push notifications make it easy to continue the work and break periods even when the app is running in the background. My requests would be including 12 hour time (am/pm), and adding an option to let the screen sleep (it can be a battery hog if not plugged in). Also, a "history" page to journal all of those productive work sessions would be very nice.

Completely and consistently crashes every time I try to do the most basic function: change the default time. Just bought it because it looks like it has a great layout, its good for the Pomodoro method, and its on both iPad and iPhone. Im thinking this may be a problem with iOS 5, which is what Im using it on, on my iPad. Once this is fixed, I will re-rate the app.

A great deal at this price point. Try it if you are curious about a simple yet workable way to keep yourself more comfortably effective at desk work. = )

I work from home and get into the habit of getting up and doing non-work related tasks. This simple app helps me set a focus goal. I have used it for a week and have it up all the time. A nice modification would be to show actual time instead of military time. Thanks!!

Great app. Add am/pm functionality and screen dimming and it will be a five-star app.

The app is beautiful to look at, but missing a couple features that would make it far and away the best timer app - at least for those trying to be productive with it using pomodoro techniques and the like. Most importantly, it needs: 1) to track the number of "cycles" that youve gone through each day. Other pomodoro apps have that capability such as pomorodorpro (though this app is much nicer looking). This second one isnt as important, but it would be a nice option to have: 2) It needs the ability to automatically continue through the timers so I dont have to manually start it after each cycle ends. If those are added, its a 5 star app for me, but without them, the app just doesnt solve my use case. Id love to be able to update my review to 5 stars if/when those features are added.

Is there really no way to pause during a session…? I like the look and feel of this app, but its lacking in functionality (as others have posted previously). Please add pause, at least. Definitely potential here for a great app with high rating. Thanks!

Great app but would like the option to turn off and on military time.

Please update :( everyone already said what to features to add. Also, on ios 5 if u exit the app u dont get the alarm sound, just sounfs like a text msg :( Please update!! Love ur app. Arigato!

...get breaks every hour. This may be perfect for students, but not the worker... especially the boss. lol!! Being self employed, I forget to take breaks. A resetting timer every 3 hours would be the perfect app for someone like me. Try making the timer at least go up to three hours? I thought this would be very beneficial for me. (Do I really have to reset it too?) Anyway, listen to the purchasers, relaunch and get more buyers. Apps like this are useful with the right features. I like the idea and layout... its cool.

Good and simple One of my favorite Pomodoro kind app

Add a 2 minute break option and Ill be happy...

Fantastic. Simple. So very helpful.

This app has helped me hunker down and write many a line of code. Beautiful, pleasant Pomodoro. Works as advertised.
