To be objective, you could just use Evernote or drafts or notes and just limit yourself to 3 tasks but it’s those little intentional nuances that make this app great as it’s focused on ONLY three tasks vs having to use your mind power to limit yourself to three tasks. Just downloaded this app after researching the medium articles written by developer company and so far it’s been working. I’ve tried a million time mgmt apps, note taking apps (u know the regular ones) GTD, Eisenhower matrix, etc etc and while they all have their place and value, I’m at a point now in life where I just need simplicity and flow state. As it is now, the app frequently stands between point A and point B of using it. I really hope you guys take another look at the user friendliness etc of this app. I’ve never made so many “mistakes” in one app or attempt to exit out of things I didn’t intend to use before. Well, please just take this review into consideration. And, surprise, I didn’t start a timer… I just don’t know what to say. Bento has no business doing anything for 16 hours. I check and Bento’s been in the background playing audio for 16 hours. My biggest problem is, I had wondered why my battery’s draining faster today. After (accidentally) starting the timer, I come back to turn on my phone and I see 10, 15 notifications all from 29 minutes ago telling me time’s up. A lot of my experience using this app has had unintentional clicks. Swiping through the bentos, if my thumb lingers even a bit the app interprets it as a tap. I guess the > was meant to be interpreted as a “let’s go (do this task)” but to me it’ll usually mean “edit more details in this submenu”. I never triggered the timer intentionally before, until I realized the > button on the side starts the timer. Major gripe is that it’s unintuitive and clunky. Review got refreshed while I was writing, so here’s a shorter one. Simple, privacy respecting, but really unpolished Reach out on Twitter or email for any help.
