Awesome app, useful!!!
SarelvdWalt
Awesome app. Tried a bunch of others, this one is the easiest and friendliest to use.The keyboard shortcuts is probably the best side-feature of the app that I was looking for in all the ones I tried.Might I suggest though, to have an option to auto-start the break after the work slot, but not auto-start the next work-slot? This would mean I can work, then when break starts get up and make coffee, but if I get interrupted and don't come back to my desk it didn't auto-start work again.
EXCELLENT APP - SUPER HELPFUL!

I recently decided to invest in the app because I was needing a way to keep myself focused on completing my assignments and I must say that this app has helped me tremendously in tracking my progress and remaining focused on my current assessments. It is super helpful, easy to navigate and better than any other app i have tried. I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for an app that will help boost productivity and instill discipline when working on tasks.
Excellent for Recording Sessions
Gskord
I am a methodical and organised person. Be focused helps me quantify actual time spent doing work with essential functions. I also have a historical database of information relating to my sessions that help me analyse my patterns.This app is a great example of thoughtfulness and minimalism with sleek UI design. I am able to use the timer and categories to deliniate my workload. The feedback section at the end of the session has been an indespensible addition to logging my sessions. An app that works and serves its purpose is quiet and allows you to integrate it into your life without interuptions. Be focused does just that. Keep up the good work developers.
Easy to use! Very useful!

Easy to use, you just install and jump right in. No fuss.I love the fact that it runs in the background and notifies you between breaks and sessions! This helps me focus on my tasks and not have to worry about overdoing a session. It's also easily accessible from the menu bar.
