Otto - A little friend for a wandering mind

I love the extension, I love pomodoro, and seeing it up above. I love the element of gamification and earning points HOWEVER, none of my points or stats get saved whatsoever. It isn't tracking my stuff and I can't find any place in my settings to fix it!

Hi Alina! Yes, thats a bug. Thanks for reporting! :) I'm aware of it and it's on my list to fix. Currently though there are other features/fixes I'm prioritising but I do have plans to overhaul the stats/points/reporting system soon. Ideally this month or the next.

LOVE this extension, but tasks feature is glitchy. Pause buttons not working on both the pop up and the extension. I also set a task to 15 mins but it sets a timer of 30 mins. Other than that, it's one of the best apps out there. I will be using the timer feature more.

Hi Kimberly, thank you for your review. Yea it can be glitchy sometimes, I will be fixing it soon. :)

i love this extension , one of the best pomodoro extension i have ever used. Although I have one request, please please add a stopwatch mode along with the pomodoro mood.

Nice, love the aesthetic and how straight to the point it is. However, its autoblocking does not work properly. Overall, a useful extension.

Hi Sagittarius, can you give me more details on how it's not working properly? I just tested it and it works as expected. Autoblock never blocks a website permanently, only that particular session of the tab will be blocked.

Very cute and the website blocking is super useful, only complaint is that I wish there was an option to keep the timer on the screen to keep me motivated.

I love this extension!! I plan to get pro when I have more money ^0^! I was wondering if you guys would consider making a firefox version in the future? I use firefox a lot more than chrome so it would be amazing to have on there too :D

Hi Kaia! Thank you :) We don't plan to make a firefox version anytime soon or in the future.

Perfect!

thank you Caleb!

This extension is AmAzInG. I'm one of those people who always get distracted every 5 minutes and goes wandering off to a random site. However, with this wonderful creation my focus is next level. Otto blocks sites, lets you customize the sound, and works along with you. I love this extension and will use actively. Thank you!

thank you for the kind words Amy! I just added a new quality of life feature called "The command bar", you can open it from anywhere by pressing cmd + shift + o to quickly start the timer. I hope you find this new feature useful. You should be able to use it in a day or two. You can find more info here https://ottoapp.me/help/command-box

Absolutely love the extension; such a life savior! Besides having all the functionalities for a pomodoro timer (like letting you set how much time you allot for working and resting), it just has the best animation! I LOVE that Otto is working out alongside me. And the page blocker is great. Otto's disappointment when you open a blocked page breaks my heart and makes me want to go straight back to work. One of the best extensions out there productivity, hands down!

thank you for the kind words, Thais! :)

I love how cute it is......it does not let you get distracted by any site which is not useful and has a Pomodoro timer! It really helped me a lot in my high school exams....the light blue and golden theme is really great and the tasks section too. Now, I can focus so much more on studying Highly recommend it to fellow students!
