## Be Focused Reviews in United States

### ***** "Great Pomodoro timer"
I use it daily.
-- Diviiinci, 2025-08-27

### ***** "Love It"
Absolutely necessary for folks with ADHD !
-- Quietpickle, 2025-08-24

### ***-- "Be focused review"
Been rocking with them for a minute but I can&#039;t get timers with breaks that are seconds not minutes. And there is no contact number it&#039;s only email, implying they don&#039;t want to have to deal with customer service, so they send you to email knowing they won&#039;t be able to get to it, there needs to be a contact number, even one from a partner app would work.
-- Jigsnofibs, 2025-07-28

### ***** "Easy to use and keeps me on track"
It’s terrific for keeping me on track. It&#039;s easy accountability for me. Great for short burtd of writing.
-- Periabd, 2025-07-18

### ***** "Developers continue to improve it!!!"
Edit: my 5 star review from 6 months ago, below, is out of date. App is still a 5 star app but even better. Love how the developers continue to actively improve this ALL THE TIME. They added the time into the Mac menu bar and added the ability to kick off using shortcuts!!

Seriously beyond impressed. For the price of 2 cups of coffee, you could increase your productivity forever. 

Love love love this app. 
(Now if only they let you use seconds or fractions of minutes as a unit of measure. Sometimes you really want a break to be 30 seconds because: reasons)

But for real. Incredible app. 

Original review early 2025:
I love this app — or rather, I really want to love it.  I’ve found that it comes the closest to most timer / Pomodoro apps out there to being exactly what I need.  The biggest complaint I have? It lives on its own island.  Using it on the iPad?  No ability to do split screen or otherwise quickly peek at how much time is left.  Using it on the Mac?  No ability to see the time remaining in the menu bar without clicking up there.  (And no easy way to call the app from Shortcuts to write your own workaround to assign hotkeys / macros).  It helpfully shows time in the iPhone Dynamic island and helpfully sends notifications to your Apple Watch.  Again, nearly perfect and well thought through: certainly the best at what it does and easily worth the price.  But when you become a power user, you’ll find yourself wishing it could do just a LITTLE more…
-- AKMpls, 2025-07-10

### ***-- "Paid subscription bugs"
I have used this app and apps like it for over six years, and I finally bought the pro version of be focused because of the synchronization feature between my computer and phone. However, this feature is at times finicky and the computer and phone take a few minutes to be synchronized with each other and sometimes they do not synchronize at all, and I have to completely reset my device. Please fix these bugs for those of us paying for the ad-free premium features.
-- natandjensen, 2025-07-09

### ****- "Great focus timer app among similar free apps"
I’ve used your app extensively, and in my opinion, it’s the best free tool available for timing tasks. However, there’s one major issue that still hasn’t been addressed: the lack of a dark mode in the main app.

While the widget supports dark mode, the core app does not. This creates a jarring experience—especially at night—when you open the app and are suddenly hit with a bright white screen.

Please consider adding a dark mode to the main app to make the experience more consistent and user-friendly🙏🏼
-- MaYa-asn, 2025-07-07

### ***** "Works on Apple Watch and iPhone"
This app works on Apple Watch and iPhones.
-- dphnyc, 2025-06-30

### ****- "Focusing"
Great unobtrusive system fo staying on track, reduces stress.
-- M.B. Caspian, 2025-06-27

### ***** "Very helpful app"
Keeping me on track and productive while book writing! Love how I try to beat out the clock.
-- F0wn, 2025-06-23

### ***** "Easy to Use"
The app is easy to use and for some reason the alarm always startles me. I chose the yee-haw one:)
-- Garciasylvie, 2025-06-19

### ***** "Lily"
Best app ever
-- saja wise, 2025-06-18

### ***** "Great :)"
Easy, effective and accessible
-- Robisantis, 2025-06-15

### ***** "God bless you guys!"
This app aids my ADHD induced lack of executive function
-- Andre blaze, 2025-06-13

### ***** "More effective"
Working with pomodoro cycles definitely increases my productivity and keeps me focused. Moreover, it helps me to make daily or weekly plans by thinking about in how many cycles i can finish a work. I also love to check my past statistics on similar tasks or similar time of the year to have more realistic long term plans.
-- glhk1346, 2025-06-10

### ****- "Great product to help you focus, but sometimes can glitch"
I’ve been using this product for years on the free version. I decided to upgrade to the pro version. Mainly I use it with my Apple Watch both at work and to study and it allows me to work 1 hour increments and remember to take breaks and answer personal messages during those breaks. Only problem that I’ve seen sometimes happens is when this app glitches, such as you could be in the middle of a timer and it just resets or stops out of nowhere, or you want to keep track of how many intervals you’ve completed and it messes up the count. Hopefully it’s a minor bug that can be fixed. Otherwise it’s a great tool for focus and productivity
-- Goolaub&#039; Jammin, 2025-05-27

### ***** "Great app"
No fuss no muss app! Love how it works and is keeping me focused and on task!
-- Vonnie M, 2025-05-23

### ***** "Very recommended!!"
Really helps you to focus but also to take your breaks! Hard work and rest are equally important. 🙌🏻
-- Eflom, 2025-05-19

### ***** "Automotive diagnostics"
I keeped Focus and productively
-- Vicknick1, 2025-05-13

### ***-- "Alarms should be louder and last longer"
The concept is great!!  Really works to keep me focused.  However, the alarm at the end of the work and break sections do not last long enough.  Too easy to ignore or simply not hear … if you are hyper focused.

I use the program in conjunction with the alarm function on my phone to solve this issue.
