Owaves: Welzijn Dagplanner

Awesome the way the interaction works! But I can’t sync my normal calendar with this :/ it just says let’s do this but then it doesn’t actually let me. Help?

I mean I’m not even a bot that gives 5 stars. I’m a normal kid. I just downloaded this app and I’m super excited about how my life is gonna be hella ez with this awesome app!!!!

Erg handig om je dag in te delen Zo vergeet je niets meer want je krijgt elke keer een melding. Wel jammer dat hij vanaf 00:00 uur gaat. Dus niet vergeten de melding van slaap uit te zetten. ….. Wat attent krijg net een mail dat ze dat doorgeven om te kijken of ze het aan kunnen passen. 👍👍👍👍👍 Vaste gewoontes heb ik standaard vastgezet één voor door de week en één voor de weekenden en de rest vul ik per dag in. Simpeler kan toch niet. Geweldig!!

Dear Owaves, I like many others am very intrigued by your app. The clock style is very unique. I’m bummed though that the iPad version is so watered down. I would much prefer to use my iPad since I only use it for work, and I tend to get distracted more easily when I pick up my phone. Plus, I prefer using a larger screen if I can. Especially since the iPhone app is quite buggy with recognizing where my finger is. Also, it didn’t seem to sync with my iPhone, which is a big problem. What’s the point of even having an iPad app in that case? Maybe something went wrong there, so I'll try downloading it again. It’s also very strange that there is no settings section at all in the iPad version, where I could potentially fix a syncing issue.

Ik zou het in mijn dagelijkse leven integreren wanneer je het helemaal kan customizen qua kleur en cathegorie. Verder: top app. Werkt heel goed

Ik vindt deze app zo fijn! Ik gebruik het iedere dag om ervoor te zorgen dat ik mij nooit verveel!

Great app! Really useful and easy to use. But some changes would make it perfect. 1). Customizable category names instead of having to change it every block. 2). Customizable quote, instead of “cArPe DiEm!” everywhere. 3). An option to change the am/pm to 24hour clock in notifications. Besides that a very nice app.

I was curious for the app, recommended by a YouTuber. Upon opening I clicked the eat category, only to realise they had included a link to an intermittent fasting article and said that they recommend a limited eating window. Although this eating window was 8 to 12 hours long, any form of fasting/restricting is disordered eating. As someone with an eating disorder, I will be deleting this app again. There is no need to promote diet culture in a planning app.

I came across oWaves in a HowToADHD video, and I really liked the concept of using owaves to keep tabs on how my daily routines affect the time in my day. The app could even work with google calendar — where I store all my appointments, and I could use different icons within one colour to indicate what each slice of the day was used for what routine. It could have been a very good tool in my daily planning toolbox. However I was disappointed to see that the software I downloaded was very basic and did not have the features I saw in all the promotional material, which confused me. After some testing with the iphone of a friend, that confusion turned to dissappointment as I found out that i got the short end of the stick by downloading the ipad-version. I use my Ipad essentially as a larger version of a smartphone, and so I do not (plan to) own an iphone anytime soon. The two devices are soo similar that it shouldn’t matter which one you have for the software that runs on it, but for this app, there it sadly does.

As more Europeans have pointed out the app is great but too North American centered. Settings for a 24h time setting and Monday being the stray of the week would be great. More color options too. Nevertheless I use this app so I have an overview of the day to come.
