Charged me on free trialI signed up for a free trial with it meant to charge me $1.27 per month from the 3 May however immediately after I was charged $29.47 … doesn’t really make any sense?? 1 star because what the heck?.Version: 2.11.0

It’s not free, whole app is behind a pay wallSo stupid and misleading, why is none of the app free, deleted straight away.Version: 2.1.1

EhIt’s slow, glitchy, freezes and crashes regularly..Version: 1.1.9

Cute but needs work to be truly usefulThere needs to be a way to see ALL tasks as bubbles on the screen (maybe have a scrollable screen), and maybe ways to filter or have different “screens” for types. Ex: bubbles for all undated tasks. Screen for all bubbles for this week. Etc. I prefer to use a lot of undated tasks and I couldn’t figure out how to make them all show up as bubbles on the main screen. Sub tasks would be helpful too. Also needs a Mac app, I like to haul up and edit tasks while on the computer as I often use your other app Forest on my phone lol..Version: 2.4.0

Good, but needs ipad supportIt’s a good app! it has crashed on me within the first day of using it though. i just wish it was compatible with ipads..Version: 3.5.3

Helps!I’ve been using this app for about five months. I have issues staying motivated so bought this to keep me on track and thought the fun little rewards would keep me going! It does make my list more fun, but I have big lists and it takes days and days to get anywhere now so the rewards are no longer holding my interest. Kinda sucks because I bought a lifetime membership..Version: 2.11.2

I don’t understand how it takes so long to load for daily review and item collectionMy internet is fine for other things, but it takes ages to load for daily review, which I’m really annoyed about..Version: 2.9.4

You have to payI was excited for this app and downloaded it. When I opened the app it said you have to pay which is annoying and I wish they said that before you download it.Version: 2.7.3

Game changerI have ADHD. This app is perfect for me in helping me take the jumble from my head, list and prioritise what I need to do in a fun and enjoyable way. Honeslty if you or a loved one has ADHD or is simply struggling to get through the day due to disorganisation then please give this app a go as it’s changed my world. Great work guys P.s ive also had forest for years and the two used in conjunction and I am a efficiency beast 😤😤😂 Update 8/3/22 I’m down voting this app due to comeplete lack of dev support. Simple things such as the daily review are glitchy and there’s been no updates or addition of features in a long while.Version: 2.9.2

2 stars for 2.0, 5 stars for 1.0Loved using this app and daily, so cute and simple to use. I recently did an update to their 2.0 version. Should have looked at the new changes before updating. Similar concept, but very different visuals and reminds me of the Forest app, which I didn’t like/use. I know the developers worked really hard in making 2.0. For me, it’s just too much. I will try and get use to it, if I can’t, sadly it will be deleted..Version: 2.2.0

Idea is great, but app is too inflexible and glitchyThe concept is great, but the app as so many flaws. From most minor to the most app-breaking, I think the app needs a specialized iPad version, more widgets, and dark mode. The current model is simply too inflexible. Next, the app immediately crashes when I try to make a checklist with in a bubble. Also, the chests are a good rewarding factor, but they never generate the reward!! Each time it loads and just returns me back to the redeeming page without giving me anything. The app is also extremely battery-hungry even when I don’t use it that often. One more thing, the bubbles return right back after I pop them. Not a syncing issue since I only use this app on my phone, but rather a development issue. In the Daily Review, there is a button to push overdue items onto today. But it just won’t do anything!! I try manually dragging the task in today but it snaps right back to its position before. Also the fact that there is NO BACK BUTTON in the daily review is disappointing. I have to force quit the app every time to troubleshoot. The app is becoming so buggy and unstable that it is unusable. Please. FIX THE BUGS! A productivity app is useless if it is buggy to the point that it’s unreliable. I want my money back..Version: 2.9.4

Treasure chests won’t work!This app has been working fine for about a year now and just recently it stopped letting me cash in my keys for treasure chests! It lets me get the the point where I can click “open” and it should open the chest but all it does it load for a while and then go back to the open page. I’ve tried this on multiple different WiFi’s and on data and nothing changes. I’ve also tried offloading the app, reloading it, and powering off my phone for a minute or two. Nothing seems to help which is really frustrating cause otherwise this app is really cool and has helped me to get more things done (which as a homeschooled high school student can be difficult). Unfortunately upgrading my islands is a big part of why I love this app so much, so I gave it 3 stars. It just isn’t the same anymore, and I haven’t been using it as much, which means my tasks aren’t getting done like they used to. If you could please fix this that would be amazing, and I would be more than happy to update my review!.Version: 2.9.4

Water level doesn't change anymore - WHY???Update: I hate the changes you've made, and now I don't use this app anymore. The whole point was for things to be more tangibly and visibly satisfying, but now the water doesn't rise and I can't choose the size of my bubbles. And the tasks I enter don't even all show up! How can I visualize what I have to do when I can't see it? Who lost the vision here? You guys screwed up. I would never recommend this now. I got this app to help activate my acenses when I have important things to do, which if IMPORTANT for people with ADHD. Now your app changed all the good things and it is BAD. // The water level doesn't change anymore?!!! Why would you take that away?? That's the reason it feels like you're making progress. PLEASE FIX THIS!! And no response to movement! You might as well be any other app now. SO SAD!!!.Version: 2.10.0

Was Great but Experiencing BugsI love this app, and it has been working well for me for about a year. Unfortunately, I have not been able to open chests or start daily reviews lately. When I click “open” for chests, I get a loading screen that then takes me back to the “open” screen, no matter what WiFi network I connect to. Using data hasn’t helped either. Lately, the same thing is happening when I try to start my daily review. It won’t load. I like this app, but it has become less enjoyable, as I cannot improve my islands or do daily reviews. Edit: lowering score by one star because bug is still not fixed.Version: 2.10.0

Love the idea but falls shortI loved the idea! Cute bubbles with a satisfying pop when I complete a task - exactly what I need to make me anticipate finishing a task. Fake points that get me cute islands that I need to upgrade - perfect for making me want to keep putting tasks in. However! I cannot use this for a few reasons - the recurring feature kept breaking for me. I could not get a task to reliably recur and there is no way I’m putting in my daily tasks in over and over again. For the weekly, by the time it recurs - it is gone from my brain. If it’s monthly, the task never existed by that point - no way I can fix it. Also, if you have too many tasks, you have to scroll to a second or third screen of bubbles. My brain cannot comprehend more bubbles than I can presently see - those tasks are dead to me until it’s too late! I would rather have different sizes of bubble to fit them all on the same page..Version: 3.0.0

Why would you mark it as free when it’s not even free?As subject.Version: 2.2.0

They don’t careOnce they got your money, they don’t care what you suggest. There’s so many things they can fix, not add but FIX and they won’t do it. They’ll tell you they’ll forward it to the team because that’s what you wanna hear and then never do ANYTHING. If you forget to check something off before the next day, you lose your streak because you can’t change it. If you wanna reset your statistics, good luck, you can’t do that without erasing every task on your queue AND you’ll have a tag called “default” that you can NEVER get rid of. So disappointing, I’ve paid for this, Forest and Sleep Town and they couldn’t care less..Version: 3.6.0

Not freeWhat is the point of making the app freeze if I can’t do anything on it without paying. I didn’t download the app just to look at it. Honestly, it’s really annoying when people falsely advertise a good productivity app only for it to be a cash grab. Incredibly disappointed..Version: 2.2.3

Good core but could use extrasIt is satisfying to put tasks in and complete them, but from the first day of use I can tell this app isn’t as functional and flexible as I’d like for something with such a high up front subscription cost. Very badly needs a dark mode, for example. Needs a way to reorder task tags. Needs a way to drag and reorder the bubbles from page to page. Needs a more rewarding way to mark off completion of checklist items/smaller parts of a larger task (would be cool if you could tap a bubble and see other bubbles orbiting it). If the subscription cost is easily affordable for you it’s worth a shot, but don’t break your bank for this app until it’s got some extra work put in..Version: 2.2.0

It costs moneyWhat I don’t like is that the app advertised itself a free. When you get the app it will make you Sign up and then lock everything until you pay for it! This means that I just had to delete the app immediately..Version: 2.3.1

Not Free at all.Waste of time. Sure it's free to download, but after 7days you need to buy it's monthly or yearly sub to continue using🙄. Or you can spend $21 to buy lifetime access😱.Version: 2.7.0

Disgusting process and Privacy breachThis app claim to be free but “in-app purchase available”. This is to make you think it has basic membership and premium membership just like all other apps. However, you will have to register account after you downloaded this app. Then, after they collected your personal information (phone number and email address), you will realise that you can’t use any feature unless you pay $16.99 p.a to be able to use this app. I have already deleted it. Very disgusting process..Version: 2.2.0

Motivating but buggyEdit: #2 & 3 were fixed. Was going to raise the rating but now the app is losing recurring tasks (they just disappear and have to be restored daily—if you can remember which tasks have been lost) and the in-app reporting mechanism no longer works. Original: So far I like it enough to pay but it does have some aggravating bugs: 1. On recurring tasks, the checklists are scrambled every day and/or duplicated. 2. As of the last update, undone tasks can no longer have their date changed during the Daily Review which means you get stuck on that page unless you want to delete all tasks or reassign them before doing the Daily Review (which screws up your statistics). 3. As of last update, app crashes when you click on a recurring task on a future date (like, in the hopes of changing the date which used to be possible). 4. The web interface is so laggy/slow that it is completely unusable..Version: 3.0.0

Good app helping with procrastinationThis app has a great design, and its concept is also good. However, while it is too easy to get keys by completing daily tasks, it takes too long to open a chest. Also, it's hard to buy new islands because I don't receive enough diamonds. It's a bit frustrating..Version: 2.3.1

Really niceI would like this app so so much, but I thought it was free until I opened it so I wasn’t sure if you had to buy or not maybe advertise that you do have to buy it because otherwise no one will know But on another note an amazing app.Version: 2.4.0

Not freeIf it weren't for the fact that everything is behind a pay wall, I think this would be a fantastic software. This software appeals to me since it would enable me to stay organised in a pleasant manner. Nevertheless, it is not free, although, it is listed as such on the App Store. Thanks..Version: 2.2.3

Won’t restore purchase so can’t use!I paid for a lifetime subscription today. The payment has left my bank account and the app shows under my purchased list in the App Store. However when I open the app it prompts me to re subscribe or select the restore button. When I press the restore button loading bubbles appear but then nothing happens. The loading bubbles just stay on the screen until I quit the app. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling but nothing is working. Please advise how to fix or, failing that, advise how I get a refund..Version: 2.9.2

App cannot be openedPreviously a very solid app (if not perfect). After the latest patch the app cannot even be opened..Version: 2.9.2

$$$I saw this when someone on social media said it helped them so I downloaded it. But it costs money so I was heavily let down. I’ll just use reminders or something instead 😭😭.Version: 2.13.7

Not freeThis is a subscription service. There is a 7 day trial but you better be careful and remember to cancel within that timeframe or you will be charged. You’re better off sticking with the notes app..Version: 2.2.2

I already paid for the app why am I paying more to access my contentsI’ve lost all my tasks and have no idea what work I’m supposed to complete this week, and now I have to pay more money to actually access my contents??? Honestly so frustrating, currently in the process of looking for a replacement app..Version: 2.0.0

Not working on ipadJust got this app today but unable to create any tasks or set any reminders. The app keeps quitting when i try to do so. My ipad model is iPad Air 4..Version: 2.3.0

DisappointingIf you plan make an app that you HAVE to purchase to be able to use it, do it in the AppStore from the beginning. Was very excited for it and happy it was free, until I tried to log in and was forced either to buy it or not be able to use it at all. Couldn’t even go past the sign in/ log page! “Free Trial”, I believed it was a free app! I’m very disappointed. Having it to be bought from the beginning in the store would have been more than fine! But pretending to be free and then forcing the person to buy or not be able to use is just.. misguiding and disappointing.Version: 2.3.1

Not freeThis app is free on the app store and therefore should be free to use, however as soon as you actually download it you have to make an account and then pay a SUBSCRIPTION FEE for yearly use. There is physically nothing you can do on this app without paying and £8 a year is just an unacceptable amount to spend on an app. Trap the app behind a paywall in the app store and don’t trick people into thinking it’s free..Version: 2.2.1

Time gated chests?I’ve been using WaterDo for a few days. So far I like the minimalist interface. The lack of complex options is better than others that convolute the purpose of a ‘to-do’ list. The rewards are time-gated, only allowing you to open chests every 10 hours so far. I guess this is to prevent people from earning rewards too fast, but I’ve got three keys built up already and there doesn’t seem to be a way to get my rewards. This severe time-gate dissuades me from interest in the narrative which I found cute. I’m also not sure what the purpose of the gems are. Recommend reducing the time-gate for opening chests. 4 or 5 hours would be much more reasonable, as 10 hours is really only one per day given sleep schedules..Version: 3.3.1

App not working since updateHey, love the app but it’s not working since the update. Repeated tasks sometimes show double or not at all on the day, even single tasks might have more bubbles. Going from a good app to this app that doesn’t work is most certainly disappointing. Please fix bug.Version: 2.2.3

CostLooked good untill I had to buy it to use it like use should have a subscription so people who don’t want to spend money don’t need to and can still use the app, and for the people with subscription just get more things.Version: 2.9.1

You have to payI was so excited to get this app after seeing it on my Pinterest feed. I thought it would be really helpful, but you have to pay to use it! Do not recommend if you don’t want to pay for it..Version: 2.3.1

No iPad and Apple Watch appsI love this app. I would have purchased it if it had an iPad and Apple Watch apps, as I like to use Forest on my phone to not get distracted, and the iPad is my work device..Version: 2.2.1

Way too buggyI’ve loved this app, it helps organize my tasks for each day and I love that you can have both a general non-scheduled to-do list as well as one for each day. My biggest problem, however, is how buggy it is. At this point it’s virtually unusable with all of the features that routinely act up. There are other features that would be great, like more islands and game-like features, but everything else could be excused if it would at least consistently work. A productivity app becomes useless when it isn’t reliable..Version: 2.9.4

Meh..I got this app after seeing it on my Pinterest feed, download it after reading the reviews. They all listed this app as “good” “aesthetic” and so on, so what it may be aesthetic but you need to pay to use it!! ITS NOT FREE!! Do not get if you don’t want to pay! I was looking for a free aesthetic task reminder, thought I found it but once again a disappointment..Version: 2.2.3

HelpI just bought this app and it won’t let me get past the “”Water-Do is a todo list app..”.Version: 1.1.24

Yet Another SubscriptionI am completely happy to pay a fee for using useful apps. However, you can’t even see how the app works without purchasing a subscription. You can start a trial, but you must sign up for a subscription first which means you must remember to cancel your subscription before you are charged. I expected to be able to at least test out the app before instantly being prompted with a subscription. In reality, to me, paying a subscription for something as simple as a to do list is beyond unreasonable. If the app had more features, maybe, but from the limited features I saw, I cannot justify paying yet another subscription just to have a quirky to do list. I was happy that most of their other apps seem to be a one time purchase and really hope that this subscription-based play isn’t around to stay. And to the developers, yes, I know I can find more information on the app page below. And I agree, developers should be paid for their work. But it’s a seems a bit much to ask for a subscription for a to-do list app, especially when the app is marked as free but makes you pay before accessing any of the features..Version: 2.11.1

Purchasing problemsWon’t let you do anything when you don’t purchase in app purchases. Anything you would click on you would have to have a purchase made. If I can not use the app when I download, then just make it a app you have to buy first off. I am really disappointed in this and this is extremely annoying. Don’t download unless you want to pay. Honestly $9.99 is not a lot but if it’s for something that I satisfying-ly“ pop “ and write things down. It seems a little much. And when you HAVE to purchase it to do anything inside the app. Again pretty disappointed and will be definitely deleting this app..Version: 2.2.3

Please kill more bugsThe treasure chest cannot be opened any more. Please fix it..Version: 2.9.4

Pretty good app but..It’s a pretty fun app to use as far as the satisfying pop of the bubbles when you complete a task and the size difference letting you know which tasks are more urgent, but there’s a limit to how many rewards from tasks you can receive each day. There doesn’t seem to be a way to lift this cap either. I find myself lacking in motivation to continue using it if I have more than 10 tasks to do in a day. (I usually have at least 25 to do a day) Other than that, you can sort tasks to just view low priority but not high? I feel like this is a UI design flaw. Not worth the money I spent on this. I will be returning to free apps like Habitica..Version: 1.1.27

Great appGreat app, but severely lacking a more compact 2:1 widget for the home screen. Would make the app perfect imo..Version: 3.5.5

Pretty good but…I hate the wait between opening chests. Please decrease it to 1 hour! It will take me days to use up the keys I have now:(.Version: 2.11.2

Everything is so nice looking but…As somebody that has problems forgetting things, I understand the need for a reminder app. But why is it free when the only way you can use it is if you pay money?? As student in the process of taking exams, lessons and prep, it would be nice if there was an option to do basic bubble reminders and then there was a premium option you can pay for with mire free reign and features the free position is restricted from. Overall, yes this app looks put-together and helpful but what money would i spend on a reminder app? Why should i use this one and pay when there are more free ones? Some improvement can be made but i like the concept!.Version: 2.2.3

NopeAs soon as I downloaded it it asked for me to log in I did then it just kept asking me to pay money for it. I am not getting an app that I have to pay to use when there are plenty of free apps! 😞😞😞 I was super excited to download this but this just ruined it and I deleted straight afterwards!!!!!!!!😮😞 if I could rate zero I would!.Version: 2.9.2

Problems and SuggestionsPROBLEM #1 - I like the idea of popping bubbles instead of just checking them off, but when I tapped on a bubble task to pop it, a window popped up asking me to check it off. When I did, the bubble disappeared without allowing me to watch it burst (which is the fun part). I also tried pressing instead of tapping and same window popped up. PROBLEM #2 - When I would swipe to delete a task, it would accidentally delete the task above it from the previous day. PROBLEM #3 - The bubbles appear in random order and all the same size. I suggest being able to arrange the bubbles by sequence and to be able enlarge the most important bubble that needs to get done that day. PROBLEM #4 - All the week’s task bubbles appear on the front page making it look cluttered. I suggest a more streamlined approach by just having only today’s bubbles appear on the screen. I deleted this app for now, but if these problems were addressed, I’d come back. I like the idea of building an island as a reward!.Version: 2.11.2

Should not show as free if it isn’tApp shows as free on the AppStore, but after downloading, it immediately lets you know that all of the functions that make the app seem helpful are things that have to be paid for. Very very basic task list can be devised on free mode and that’s it. Not ideal for university students who don’t want to pay for yet another subscription..Version: 3.1.0

Had to stop usingGood mechanics and concept but only works for more than a day if it syncs (otherwise it’s just a list with pretty graphics) Much more often than not it doesn’t sync therefore is useless. Support has now been switched off so I’ve had to stop using it as it’s not working. This is despite having paid an annual fee. They are also still taking subscriptions so I would strongly advise not paying to upgrade as there ia currently no benefit..Version: 2.13.2

Scam - free to download and then chargesI downloaded this app after seeing it online, very pleased with the download. However, when I opened it it asked my to lay £0.79 a month minimum to set a single to do!! Would not recommend, huge scam and hugely disappointed.Version: 2.12.0
