You can select the lengths of your long break, short break, and flow from a small range of options. You can blacklist apps and they are working on adding websites as well! The timer sits in the top bar so you can always see at a glance where you're at and work accordingly without disruption. You can have desktop and sound notifications.
Speaking of which, I emailed with a few suggestions of what I would enjoy seeing from the app and they responded very quickly to describe their plans and address my suggestions. They were very courteous and friendly. Overall, happy to use! It's really helped me put the Pomodoro technique to use and I've already seen improvement in my work - especially the seemingly endless task of reviewing and summarizing literature for my research.
Completing "flows" so aptly named is just enough motivation to help me stay on track and avoid procrastination techniques. I only just got this app, but I've shied away from pomorodo apps in genreal because they're so rigid. What if I start out thinking I want to work for 20 minutes, only to find out that I can, in fact, work 60? I don't want to be reminded to take a break at 20 because then I'll lose motivation.
But, on the other hand, if there's a situation where I plan to work for 60 minutes and can only manage 20, how do I work around that? I just think pomorodo should be more flexible, that would really maximize everything.
I don't know myself well enough to be able to plan that kind of thing, and theoretically this app would help me to figure that out, but in the meantime I've just got this mental block. I've got ADHD so it feels like every second counts and I need all the motivation I can get, but I also can't put too much pressure on myself and I don't know where the boundary is. It would be great if, at the end of each session, there would be two choices to click on: break, or continue working.
You'd get a motivating message if you continue, and a comforting message if you have a break. After a while, with being able to view the completed sessions, you'll be able to see exactly what times work for you and what to expect. Hi Laela, thank you so much for your detailed and thoughtful feedback on this!
If there's anything else you need, you can always contact us at support flowapp. Flow is a nice Pomodoro timer if you follow the original Pomodoro concepts, its clean, user-friendly and free to boot!
Unfortunately, its customization options are too rigid, with no way to set your own custom values. The flow times are set in stone 15, 20, 25, 30, 45, 50, 60 I would like the option to add any time I want say 90 for Optimiz's suggested Deep Work blocks.
Lastly, there is no way to set how many Pomodoros you want before a long break its always 4, I would like to set 3 and there is no way to reset the Pomodoro count, so if I do 3 Pomodoros, then have lunch and come back, or even quit for the day it will give me a long break after my next Pomodoro even if its the first one of the day! Adding this total customization control would make this app exactly what I'm looking for, I'm hoping that the developers can implement some or all of my sugestions.
