Reviews of focusalarm:
The most useful extension for Focusmate. Thank you!
Thank you so much for making this! I second the notion that it would be great if session start notifications had the same time interval options as the end. :)
This app worked really well in the beginning. About a month after I added it to Chrome, it suddenly stopped making the reminder sound, which caused me to miss several Focusmate sessions. I'm not happy with this app at all.
I love FM and FocusAlarm makes it even better. I only wish there was multiple options for how long BEFORE the session it rings. I'd like to get notified about a minute before, in case I'm not at my desk, or on a different window/tab. Also I think it has twice not rung before my session when I was on a different tab. Not that I really minded, it's still great!
I would love some more options for how early the notification sounds, such as 1/3/5 minutes before session starts.
This helps me start sessions on time more often. Thank you!!! I don't use the pre-ending alarms, although I'll try out the 20-second one. Feature request: could the developer(s) please add more options for the sound that goes off before the session starts, e.g. 1 minute or 2 minutes early?
Unpredictable. Doesn't work right now. Doesn't work a lot of times.
Amazing. Increases focus an accountability
This is really a feature that should be baked-in Focusmate. Yael did great - and it just makes it a lot easier to not miss starting sessions (that happened to me every now and again) and it's also a discrete alert before the end.
I live in a college town and I have noisy, partying neighbors. (Yes, unfortunately even in COVID times...it's enraging.) So i often have earplugs in during Focusmate sessions. While that's great for focus, I also need a rousing alarm to keep me accountable to my partner! Focusalarm does that. I enjoy both the bell and the mooing sound :)
Incredible & very useful!
So helpful for FM
Super helpful as an extension, but huge memory footprint (> 400 MB) as a simple extension. Please reduce the memory consumption!
Exactly what I needed. I missed a couple sessions by just forgetting I booked.. the main purpose for booking!! Thank you for this.
Life saver!
Just what Focusmate needs! Lets me turn down my music a minute before the session ends and reminds me before it starts. The only thing it could use is either a gentler alarm option or a volume control because it startles me a lot, heh.
I had a chance to use this extension and it just blew my mind. I highly recommend this extension made by Yaeluria if you use Focusmate as it makes the sessions even more accountable as well as productive.
