Flow is great, congrats! A few things I'd love: 1) track my failures (restarts). 2) send feedback directly from the app rather than emailing support@flowapp.info. 3) persist float when switching desktops (if using multiple spaces on mission control). 4) option for some dopamine on completion - a relaxing minigame maybe?

@jonathan_francis Hi Jonathan, thank you so much for your kind and detailed feedback! Those are all great suggestions. We'll put them on our list. We especially like the idea of a mini game 😄 Could you go into more detail what you mean by "persist float"? Also, why would you prefer to send feedback directly from the app? I'm looking forward to your reply. We value your feedback.

@jonathan_francis @lea_hirschmueller Great, you're welcome! So when moving between mission control "spaces" the pomodoro only remains within one space rather than continuing to appear in every space. RE feedback - at the moment there's no way to find out that email address to give feedback (even in the about section), I only found it on product hunt so at a minimum you should add the email address. But I think most people prefer a "click feedback button" > "type idea" > "send" experience. Instead of a "click about section" > "copy email address" > "open browser" > "open email client" > "compose new message" > "type title" > "write formal message including [dear x] and [from y]" > "hit send".

@jonathan_francis @lea_hirschmueller Thank you for clarifying 🙂 From my understanding it's normal for windows to stay in one space. We'll look into it to see if we're able to modify this behaviour for Flow. Our email address is in the footer of our website. But we'll consider adding an easier way to send feedback directly from the app. ☺️

I like your minimalist design and have subscribed to pro! Please do send a message in your mac app when ios version is online. Other apps have the todo list feature. Are you going to implement that as well?

@novelballseal Hi, thank you so much for supporting our tiny developer studio by purchasing Flow Pro! We plan to release the iOS version in early 2021. This will be a free basic version first. More features as well as the optional Flow Pro upgrade will follow. You can follow us on Twitter to get notified about new release and new features. We plan on implementing a simple task feature and the integration of already existing popular to-do apps. If you have further questions, you can always contact us at support@flowapp.info. 🙂

Amazing app!! Design is so sleek. Was a bit confused though about the four little dots, apparently they represent four flows with short (5-10 min) breaks in between, but took me a minute to figure it out. Would like an option to customize the amount of these flows in a session, like say from 2 to 5 instead of just 4. Also, curious – how do you monetize?🤔

@sidyakinian Thank you so much for your feedback, Yan! We will add options to customize the amount of sessions as well as the durations. You can follow us on Twitter to get notified about updates. Thanks for your question. As of right now, we're not monetizing Flow. In the future, we want to implement some kind of "PRO-features", but the usage of the focus timer itself will always remain free to use. 🙂

Very cool - would you consider a calendar integration to sync pomodoro blocks to your calendar? Would be very useful to have "what tasks got done during what blocks" for looking back on the day.

Love the product! I've used the pomodoro timer app Forest on iOS, but I've always wanted something similar on Mac. Really like the minimalist and clean UI. One question. Is it possible to hide the countdown timer on the top bar? Sometimes I'd like the option to hide it.

@timjwu Thank you for your kind words, Tim! Right now, we're working on an alternative, less distractive menu bar icon. Since Flow only sits in your menu bar, it's not possible to hide the icon entirely. 🙂
