Love the app! Where can I give feedback? There are a couple of things: * being able to select the calendar so the highlight blocks actual time * preventing reminders on weekdays * would love to see a catalyst app so I can use it on macOS as well

Wow. This is a product I truly needed right now. Great work @john_zeratsky @jakek. This app is so simple, and this is truly what makes it awesome. It has a great UI (obvious you care about Design right?). Amazing work from @AJSmartDesign @thebothrs and Sidekick Digital.

Hello! I did not know that the Make Time App was going to be hunted today, but... thanks @almost_designer !! We initially designed the app (with our friends at AJ&Smart and Bothrs) as a companion to our book, Make Time. But as it came together, we realized that the app could be useful on its own—as a counterpoint to the typical, feature-laden, todo-list "productivity" apps. Make Time is an app that you should use every day, for just a few minutes. It's habit-forming, but in the best way possible. It uses notifications, but just to remind you, not to manipulate you. And it doesn't collect any personal information, track you, or store your data in the cloud. In some ways, it's kind of a throw-back hobby project: Simple, focused, and built to scratch an itch. I hope you find it useful.

“Simple focused” apps for the win! 😍 Most of the time good solutions aren’t complicated. I downloaded the app as soon as I saw this post. I’ve been reading articles on the Make Time blog for a while and the philosophy speaks to me. It makes sense. Have to admit I haven’t tried implementing it “strictly” so far, but think that I finally will with the help of this nice little app. Nevertheless, the ideas in the posts (and I guess the book as well, although I haven’t read it) have helped me tweak my mindset. I feel that this app is going to become a prized addition to my digital toolkit and can’t wait to start using it! Also, I didn’t know about the Time Timer! The way you describe it in the app makes me want a physical one.
