FocusByte - Study Timer Hatch

Has all the features one would need with a pomodoro app

Basée sur la technique Pomodoro, l’application propose une approche plus ludique avec un aspect jeu de rôle très appréciable. Tout est gameifié et vous débloquez, en n’utilisant pas votre smartphone, des pièces pour faire évoluer votre personnage et son équipement. Le but du « jeu » est simple, il ne faut pas utiliser son téléphone pendant un certain temps (que vous définissez) pour récolter des pièces. Si vous connaissez le pomodoro vous comprendrez très vite comment ça fonctionne. L’appli est encore toute jeune et le dev est tout seule derrière je crois mais il est très réactif et a déjà tenu compte de plusieurs remarques que j’ai pu lui faire. Je recommande vivement cette appli si la ludification est un moteur pour vous !

I can’t access most options in the Settings section. Words don’t go to links, they do nothing. Not even the email link to report bugs. The statistics don’t work anymore, it just crashes. It been like this for a few months, I have email them so I hope they fix the bugs soon. I had to copy & paste it into my email app to do so, since the link doesn’t work. So for three months I haven’t been able to look at my statistics, therefore I haven’t been using this app as much & I’m starting to regret going pro with it. I never got a response on when the bugs would be fixed nor do I know if they will since I email them three months ago.

The very first time I tried to set a timer it failed because my phone screen turned itself off which I guess counts as leaving the app? I turned off deep focus mode but it’s annoying that feature is basically unusable unless I want to drain my phone battery

So, I love the idea and design of this app. However, it does not give you a sound notification when the timer runs out. So unless you’re glued to your phone in order to see the silent notification, it’s ultimately useless as a timer. You know, only the most basic function of a pomodoro. I’ve tested my phone to see if this is an issue with it or the app itself and it’s definitely only this app. I’ve checked the settings to see if I have notification sounds off, nope. Turned off and turned on my phone, nothing. I’ve deleted and reinstalled the app, nada. I have never had this issue with any other app before, and unfortunately, it’d actually be easier to ignore on another app. But on this one, it renders the product almost entirely useless. Edit: I said that deleting and redownloading the app did nothing, I was wrong. It actually got rid of my items and pet despite me having a profile🙃

I just purchased the pro version because I really fell in love with this app. But I just found out that I can’t remove or edit tags. Please fix this bug. Also if the app can be optimized for iphone 7 screen size, the app would be great. On my iphone 7, things are on top of each other or go beyond my screen. And it would be nice if I can choose the background color other than lilac. Otherwise I love the theme and everything!

This is supposed to be free today to unlock entire program. “Tap anywhere on pricing page.” App insists on charging rather than confirming entire program unlocked.

This is the best app purchase I’ve made for productivity! Makes studying more bearable. But I have been having issues with the app resetting randomly in the middle of a session and so I’m unable to retrieve my reward. This has happened regardless of shorter sessions or longer sessions (eg 20 min, 2 hours), even without other apps open, which throws off my momentum and turns me off from the app for the rest of the day.

This ap is moore gooder then I thinked it would be!

Just download it man
