Highly Configurable But Lacking in Polish
I liked the fact that FocusMe is configurable. I also liked the fact that the customer service was reactive to questions (even on weekends) and top-notch from a technical point-of-view
I didn't like the fact that some of the options are poorly implemented. A good example of this would be the "Show Timer" option. Despite setting the checkbox parameter for this function to TRUE repeatedly, it fails to remain active.

Dear Mark,
Thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear about the difficulties you’ve encountered with the "Show Timer" setting and other options.
I reached out to you yesterday via email to offer my assistance in resolving this, including my direct phone number. Can you please look out for my email?
Thank you once again for your constructive feedback. We are here to help and improve.

Dear JW,
Thank you for your feedback. We noticed that your original claim regarding malware was removed from your review, and we appreciate this update, which helps ensure accuracy for all users. We regret to hear that your experience with the free trial of the FocusMe application did not meet your expectations, especially since we have not had prior communication. We are committed to enhancing our app and truly value all feedback. We understand that familiarizing oneself with new and feature-filled software in a short period can be challenging. To better support our users, we encourage the use of the full two-week free trial and are here to assist in any way we can.
We’ve noted that you have expressed dissatisfaction frequently across various services, as seen in your review history. While we understand that you hold high standards, we are committed to addressing your concerns specifically with our app. Your insights are invaluable as they push us to better refine FocusMe.
If you're open to it, I would appreciate the opportunity to speak with you directly. Please let me know a convenient time for a call, and I will make myself available.
We value the opportunity to learn and evolve from user feedback and aim to serve you better in the future. If you prefer not to engage further, we understand and wish you the best in finding a solution that meets your needs.
Warm regards,

FocusMe is Amazing
FocusMe is Amazing. The application is extremely customizable to meet individual needs (which is the basic entry bar for a system like this). It is robust, ever present, and effective. And their technical support feels more like a partnership than traditional "tech support." They really seem to get it: this isn't just another "app" but an integral part of maintaining a healthy relationship with technology. Like most valuable experiences, you get out of it what you put into it. Take the time; give it a chance; and stick with it. It'll do you good.

Focus me is perfekt for desktop..
Focus me is perfekt for desktop... The forced mood option is very important for me, so that I just can't stop the app or do anything but accept the reality that I can't open the blocked apps till the session pause comes.
I like this app.

And Focusme helped a lot.
What sets this app apart is its uninstall feature, which I couldn't find on other apps. Once a plan is active you can uninstall the app. And I mean it, not like other apps which by 2 clicks is gone.
Also, I went from more than 4h/day on my phone to under 1h/day.
Top-notch customer service; they've been incredibly responsive and nice.
+1 happy customer for Focusme.

The response from the support was very quick and very efficient - even though my problem was very specific, every email from the technician was always right on the money, getting closer and closer to fixing it. Congratulations on the pragmatism and objectiveness - those are the best qualities for a support technician!
