Good tool, but this isn't an AppSumo benefit

I'm giving 3 stars just because it's not the full product with unlimited sessions (retail value $7/month). This is just the free version.

This Isn’t Focusmate Pro

I signed up for AppSumo Plus thinking I’d get Focusmate Pro (unlimited sessions) as part of the deal. My bad. That’s how I interpreted it.

Turns out, it’s not Focusmate Pro. It's just a group that ANYONE can create. Why label it as reward? What's in it for us?

This is not a gamechanger.

If you’re expecting real value — such as unlimited coworking or an upgraded plan — you won’t find it here. You’re just being steered into the basic free plan with a custom group slapped on top.

Focusmate is a solid tool — I’ve used it and like it — but this “deal” is nothing people require.

I saw this when it first came on AppSumo and thought, 'Next!' And now,...

I've completed my first session. I get it!

I'm going to use this to finally tackle all the tasks that I've been putting off--like cleaning out the freezer, organizing the garage, the pantry, my closet, and the drawers in my desk. There's a never-ending list of things to do. I'm hoping this comes back as an unlimited lifetime deal! I'm sold!

Late review, LOVE THIS!

This is incredible, the kind of accountability I needed. Just having someone there helps me focus on the task at hand. If this comes back, buy it. If not, join on their site. One of the best products I've gotten, thanks AppSumo!

Surprises Me!

I signed up and had my first session last week. I was surprised about how productive I was during that brief period. Time periods are 25, 50 or 75 minutes. Next time I'll make it 75 minutes. I found having a set time period encourages me to go, go, go on a task. I'm fairly self motivated, but we all have those yucky jobs we have to push ourselves to do, so for me, this tool is excellent to get those ones done. I think I'll end up paying the subscription fee...I have plenty of yucky jobs :)
