Be Focussed Pomodoro Timer #29

Open nelsonic opened 2 years ago

nelsonic commented 2 years ago

I've been test-driving this app Be Focussed on Mac: https://xwavesoft.com/be-focused-pro-for-iphone-ipad-mac-os-x.html image The nag-ware pop-up on the "free" version is infuriating!

So I'm going to pay the £1.79 for the "Pro" version and test out a few of the features. image

Interesting that it doesn't automatically do the import ... image

Someone must have asked for this to be optional ... 💭

The iPhone/iPad apps are a separate purchase. 🤦‍♂️

If you upgrade to the "Pro" version from the ad-supported one, you end up with two apps on your device:

I understand why the dev wants to have an ad-supported version for the people who are too stingy to pay for the App. But the UX is lame. 🙄

I've just signed up & logged in on 2 devices and immediately I see that the time for a timer/task is not in sync!! 🤦‍♂️ If you start/stop the timer on one device it's not stopped/started on the others!! 🤷‍♂️ This is the most basic UX feature I would expect from a multi-device app.

Not having the timers synched between devices is such a deal-breaker for me. 🤦‍♂️ I don't "regret" paying the money for the "Pro" versions from a UX-testing perspective ... but as a "user" of the product. I feel it falls significantly short of expectations/potential.
