| 2023-08-03 |  | | The app has been great for me, since I need an app tracker for my studies. The interface designs is pleasant and cute, and simple. The app does not have a lot of complicated features. However, the tag system is not convenient. We cannot make our own tags, which should be a feature since the present tags does not really fit everybody's need. I will appreciate it if you consider this feature and might add it in your future updates. Regards. 🩷✨ |
| 2023-05-15 |  | | Lovely UI aesthetically, but unintuitive to set up and unclear what it will do when you have. The "⚙️" tab lets you choose work/rest durations; "➕" tab lets you add tasks; "Learn" tab tells you to add ten every day, and tells nothing else - certainly not how to start/pause/stop a timer! - only that here's a great way to learn focus; feels like it'll dripfeed what the way is, one paragraph per day...? Doesn't say that either... I expected something like pomodoro, got just theory-waffle to read. |
| 2022-06-16 |  | | The app is almost perfect, I love the aesthetic and the interface. It looks really calming and I love the audio. Although I wish it has repeating task option so that I don't have to write them down every single day. One more problem is that it won't save your stats if you stop halfway through but that's not a really big issue for me, it is a little annoying sometimes when I finish my task early and it doesn't save. I see a lot of potential on this app, so I will keep on using it for now. |
| 2022-04-29 |  | | This app is really good and it helps me in being organised. It has a really aesthetic feel to it, which I really love. I'm looking for the dark mode and it does not seem to be available in this app. Also, the screen doesn't stay awake while the timer is ongoing. Lastly, you can't stop the timer midway and if you do, this progress is not counted. If these 3 problems of mine are solved, this app is going to be super perfect. 🪐 |
| 2022-04-26 |  | | super nice and easy to use, but it doesn't appear to have an alarm function? I find myself going over the allotted time constantly because the app won't give any indication it's done despite having notifications and vibrations on. There's also no way to undo accidentally finishing a task, sad because this is by far the best looking and feeling study timer app. |
| 2022-04-15 |  | | The app is adorable, it makes me super productive and willing to study :) The white noise are super helpful too Looking forward to more white noise :) Also can you plz add an app blocking feature , with some whitelisted apps to use while the phone is locked, cause sometimes I get distracted by some apps and social media, this feature will really be helpful:)) Ty in advance ✨keep up the spirit 🌻 |
| 2021-06-23 |  | | Glan is a simple yet effective application, I had to try so many apps before I stopped at Glan. I'm a pre-med student, and it works pretty well for me. Two things that could make this app even better would be: • If we could share our stats at the end of the day, the number of ours we studied from inside the app, not as a screenshot. • If we could connect with our friends through the app and do a STUDY TOGETHER, that would be fun! All in all, a great app. |
| 2021-06-10 |  | | It's an nice app overall. I liked it's design and how cute it is. But there are somethings that need to be changed. First of all, if you start an 60m, and complete the task within 55m and you end the session, then all your progress goes away and it isn't tracked. You have to complete the pomodoro. Secondly, when you complete the task, you cannot edit it. If you click on done by mistake, you cannot undo it. You will have to redo it. That's all. Please make the changes asap |
| 2021-04-08 |  | | This app is definitely one of the better ones, plus, it's so aesthetic! I love that there's a built in timer. Could you make it so that swiping right marks it as complete and left as remove instead of both directions being remove? Also, a calendar would be very useful, as you can then plan what you need to do on what days. |
| 2021-04-08 |  | | Nice app for tracking process and building strong habits. I like the simple yet effective layout and colour scheme. Very motivating. Includes some gentle white noises for every situation. You can prioritize and colour code tasks. I really appreciate this app and the fact that it is free! One thing I would suggest is that you can recurr tasks so that you don't need to keep setting the same tasks so often. Overall, a great minimalistic productivity app I highly recommend! |
