5/5<3 Focus Dog!!!
hey! I love this app so much. It has made me so much more productive! I’m normally not the type to write a review but this app is just too good to not write a review. I was diagnosed with ADHD about a week ago and this app really helps with my attention span. I would totally recommend this app if you struggle with ADHD and procrastination. There are only a couple of things I would like to see. I think it would be really cool if you added more outfits for focus. He is so cute and I love every single outfit for him I just think it would be cool to see more. I also have another idea for earning the donuts. I think you should be able to earn more donuts by how many hours you set a timer. So like if you do maybe 2 hours you can earn any of the following donuts. Remember these are just suggestions/ideas. There is no hate at all here. Thank you so much for creating a super immersive game and I hope I will continue to use this game! 😄❤️

4/5Awesome app but there's room for improvement!
I got this because it seemed a lot more interesting than Flora/Forest and I freaking love dogs!! As a budding computer programmer, I really appreciate all the details the developer put into this app. There is literally tons of different donuts you can collect (and who doesn't like to complete collections?) and it tracks your stats like how many days in a row you've been using the app and how many hours and donuts you've made. The graphics are cute and bubbly, the sound effects fit well with the content and it isn't distracting. You do have to pay for the "donut pro" to access the notification feature (the app detects when you leave it) but it's like the best $4 you'll spend. It makes working and putting in the time to study "fun" again. Instead of dreading long hours working/studying, I look forward to making donuts!! There are some features I would like to see added (if possible ❤️): one is a whitelist for apps you can access, so if you leave donut dog and visit one of the approved apps, the timer will still run (not sure if that's possible with iOS but I would love this feature sooo much!). A whitelist would help me run this app on my iPad but still get work done when I'm not active on it. Another feature I would love is adding customization to Focus! It would be awesome to be able to unlock different breeds for the dog and also accessories like collars, toys, etc. Furthermore, a more detailed statistics page would be much appreciated. Right now, I have trouble looking at the specific sessions in a week; if the bar graph can be navigated on a different page and made larger to see the different sessions, it would make me really happy. Overall I would recommend this app to my friends (and already have!). Thank you for developing this awesome app!

5/5Adorable and useful!
I love this app! As a self-employed writer, I often have a hard time focusing and managing my time, but Donut Dog makes it easy and fun! The graphics and interface are charming. Big tasks seem less daunting when you tackle them in 5-25 minute sessions, and this app, unlike your standard phone timer, allows you to generate cutesy donuts with every session you complete and increase the happiness of your virtual dog! Pleasing the dog, collecting new donut recipes, and unlocking rewards by completing quests is proving to be a surprisingly effective motivator for me. EVEN BETTER, you can use the gems you earn as you level up to sponsor meals for REAL dogs in need at a European non-profit! I highly recommend this app for folks like me who have a hard time getting started and staying on-task (and are motivated by the thought of feeding virtual and/or real dogs). Thank you for making this game and supporting hungry dogs!

5/5Game Changer 🥰😍🤩⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍🏻🌈💕✨
Where do I even start? Gamifying focus with donuts you feed a cute puppy is genius on its own, and a totally fun way to fight procrastination on takes you’re putting off. Add to that the fact that your continued use of the app actually provides food for dogs in shelters (yes, it’s verified!🥹❤️✨) makes being productive that much more rewarding! After only 3 days of using the app, I have noticed a quantifiable leap in my motivation and focus. Every time I use the app I get more work done (sharpening my focus, extending my attention span, and lessening my anxiety). To the developer: First of all, thank you so much for making this app ❤️✨ Secondly, thank you so much for providing the option to buy the app outright, and eliminating the pesky subscription model. I get excited every single time I open this app. 🥰🌈✨Now, make an app where feeding a cute animal gives me killer abs 😆

5/5Sugar to sweeten the workday
SO GRATEFUL that I found this app. I’ve used it for at least two years, and I’ve tried many other apps out there. This one is super simple, but the concept of collecting a cute virtual donut to feed my cute virtual dog is somehow, improbably, enough to just make me start the timer and begin a task. Over time, it becomes pavolvian (hah.. sorry). I love the app. Super easy to start the timer (and assign a category) which is the most important thing. It would be nice to have a few more small variants - maybe our dog could have a few more expressions of happiness/sadness/anger, maybe a few more different backgrounds… but this is just more icing on the already tasty donut! Hope the core of the app never changes!! Thank you ❤️
