Make Time App

It would be great if there was a widget which just showed todays highlight so I could “pin” it to my homescreen.

This is a straightforward app with a single purpose - getting you to focus on one specific project or task (highlight) each day. It has been a tremendous boon to my productivity and concentration. I love the laser focus timer. I simply set it and start working on an assignment for the allotted time with no interruptions. My daughter uses it for her homework, too. I also enjoy reflecting at the end of the day. This app offers something I haven’t been able to find yet amid programs like RescueTime and the various Pomodoro-style apps out there - a free, non-invasive, non-irritating app with no ads or other catches that actually works. A task-minder, timer, reflection and gratitude journal all in one. Paired with the book, this is an amazing tool and I highly recommend it!

Buy make time!

I like the app overall and it integrates well with the Make Time philosophy. I wish that the time timer would record how much time I’ve spent on my daily highlight.

I set my highlight for the next day the night before (okay if I’m honest I’m copying today’s over to tomorrow because I haven’t done it). It stays in the calendar but is deleted from the app by morning? Would also like a way to access ALL of the book thru app if there is a way to prove you bought the book (which I have).

I love this app. Like the book, it helps you prioritize what’s most important in your life, which isn’t necessarily work (like most productivity books emphasize). It’s had it’s fair share of bugs, but it’s totally worth sticking with, and the bugs I’ve noticed have been fixed quickly. But can there be a widget please? A widget to show the highlight? And maybe one to show the laser timer?

I might be missing something, but after creating and scheduling my highlight (and giving the app permission to access my calendar), it's still not showing up on the calendar at all. If this is a bug, it's a pretty big one. I will definitely update this review if this gets fixed/addressed. Update 2/21: Checked back to see if the app had been updated at all since launch, but it doesn't look like it. Still pretty useless.

Can you guys check reflect workflow? I’ve tried a couple of times and I’m reflecting highlights for the future and my previous reflections get lost. Am I in the future?

This app is creative and wonderfully designed, don't get me wrong! Needless to say, it can improve. 1) The highlights are not accurate with the day. For example, a highlight for Dec 16 may pop up as "today" when it is only Dec 15. 2) I cannot clear a reflection. I can change it, but what if I want to delete it? Again, Jake and JZ, great app!

simple & good design app, which is my long waited app. btw, i know this app is designed for iphone users and its screen tho. it would be great if it supports full ipad horizontal screen maybe in the future.
