BFT - Bear Focus Timer

This is nice and clean but I’d like to see a few more features that Focus Keeper has though it could remain cleaner and just incorporate a few. I love the white noise feature in this though. I’d pay for an in-app purchase to add charts and a few more settings customizations. Also, needs sync and customized long break. This is the first time I think I’ve thought that an app is priced lower than it should be. By the way, I am in LOVE with the update and the added coffee grinder noise. Thank you for this app!

This little app doesn’t do much, but what it does do, it does exceedingly and charmingly well. It has dramatically increased my focus and productivity, and with the built-in rest breaks, it has even improved my health, I believe, by making me get up from my desk at regular intervals and walk around for five or 10 minutes. If you are looking for a simple, effective timer app to help you focus on your work, then I highly recommend BFT.

As someone who struggles with ADHD, sitting down and studying for more than 30 minutes was equivalent to seeing a double rainbow; it was always a struggle to actually COMPLETE my studies. I paid for Bear Friendly Timer and for the first time in my life, studied for probably six hours!It was a miracle!!!! My mom was impressed and got the app too, and she uses it frequently as well. Also, I am simply a huge sucker for well designed and cute apps, so naturally I am pleased with this one!

That pun was probably made on here but, puns aside, I really do think this is an excellent study tool. It’s really useful for homework in general, but I find it especially great for studying finals or doing a lot of school-related reading. I like how it has both short and long break periods, and how you can adjust them, as well as how you can choose the ambient sound, great for if you’re working somewhere noisy.

Need to buckle down and get to work - get this app! Easy steps: select how long you need to “focus,” set your phone face down & white noise begins. Turn over your phone before the timer goes off and a cranky cartoon bear pops up reminding you to get back to work. This app has helped me immensely!
