Why Some Negative Reviews? This is PERFECT.
This is app is GREAT! I was hesitant at first to purchase this app after seeing some negative reviews. I can tell you now that these reviews came from ignorance of using this application. Watch the video on YouTube because it answers all their “concerns”.
Why I use it: I’m a freelancer for video production and often have 5-6 major projects on my plate. I keep organized based on priority and importance of each client’s project. Most of my time is spent “moving projects along” because of the vast amount of time involved in each. I “sprint” each day for 4 segments of 90 minutes on high-priority projects with quick tasks, emails, and calls in between. Thus getting 30 billable hours in each week as a goal.
To visualize and better focus, I use this app: I set it to 1.5 hours, click start, and this app starts counting down. Great visuals and handy to check back as you trudge through task after task. If you’re familiar with CrossFit or simliar time-based or task-based fitness metholodigies, then you’ll understand why this app can drive productivity during a defined period of time. I highly recommend using this app for short 90-120 minute segments of focused work followed by a true break.
