1000 Hours Outside

I love using this app to track our time outdoors. It’s something that’s so important to me for my family and I love stats and data so it is a win win. A few things I’d love to see improve: 1. An option to pause and re-start the timer. Sometimes we go in and out of the garden for example. 2. The timer logs what time it is when it’s started and stopped e.g. start 11:31 stop 11:45 and make a note in the notes for that day to help keep track. 3. A widget would be soo handy, almost more handy than the above two options because being able to tap on it from Lock Screen would be awesome. 4. I would love it if there were more badges such as a 75 hours reached. 5. I think being able to see a graph of how many hours you’ve achieved each week, month and year compared to each other would be amazing. 6. I think more clarity on the fact that you can start it anytime of the year would be helpful, though I’m being picky here becasue I assumed it had to be within the calendar year and didn’t clock it doesn’t matter when you begin. I hope some of these are useful and adopted by the creators of this app so I can continue to love it for years to come. I’d love to know if my comments have made a difference. Anyway, I love how it motivates us to not only get out, but spend more time, take the longer route, try somewhere new. Thank you

Unfortunately had to delete and request a refund as upon opening the app, after freezing a few times, my entire phone crashed and had to be restarted twice. Hoped it was a coincidence but the same thing happened when I tried it again later that evening!

I tried using a free version of a similar app but I’m so glad I started using this instead! Much easier to use, the virtual badges are a great touch to make you feel you’re achieving something! Timer can be slow to load if you’ve left it for a while but always loads for me with a track of how long I’ve been outside. Only thing that would improve it for me would be more statistics - being able to see that I’m spending more or less time outside this month/week than last and averages across weeks/ months would be really interesting to see if tracking everything makes a difference to the amount of time being spent outside

I really enjoy this app - the stats and badges are giving me more motivation. I enjoy inputting photos and mini journal entries but I feel this is lacking. It would be awesome to have the option to print a little scrap book of all these journals. Also more state would be awesome - things like “you are outside 80% more on a weekend” for example.

I really like the idea and am enjoying using the app so far. A couple of pointers for improvement - it would be good for the images to upload to a higher quality. Also I would like to be able to zoom in and out of the images. I’d like to use the app as an album of outdoor memories so these features would help! Thanks 😊

Really basic app not that it matters as it just kicks me out of the app every few seconds anyway.

You can’t delete activity if you logged it wrong. Also the app doesn’t work - it keeps shutting down after 1 minute. I just wasted my money to buy this crap.

I want to love this app but unless I have my phone in my hand constantly monitoring if it’s still timing us it stops. As soon as my phone locks or I open another app etc it stops. This kind of spoils the point of time away from a screen. Hopefully this can be fixed.

The functionality just isn't there unless you are very organised and update the app every single day (never ever forget on a Saturday night!). You can only add data for a day in the current week, which runs Sunday to Saturday, and you can't change this so your week runs Monday to Sunday instead. There's no way of viewing, let alone editing, data for a previous week. And there's no way to view data for a previous month. So for example I wanted to update for the last fortnight or so on 3rd August - none of this is possible because I can't look exactly which date I last entered data for, and I can't add data now for anything before Sunday 1st August. I gave all this feedback when the app was first launched and heard nothing, no changes made. I could have made myself a better spreadsheet in 5 minutes flat and saved £2.99.

Crashes all the time. Can’t see the purpose of this app at all. You can’t manually enter hours so it only logs what you use the timer for. But the timer doesn’t work! I’d like a refund. This isn’t fit for purpose and isn’t as described.
