CARROT To-Do for Negative User Reviews
✓ Promised UpdatesI’ve been using this app for a while and really like many things about it and, especially in the beginning, it was motivating. But it’s getting tiresome and desperately needs refreshing. Syncing across devices is pretty pointless without also being able to sync tasks. I may be looking for a new app if updates don’t happen soon..Version: 5.2.6
✓ GlitchSometimes when you’re scrolling an item gets ticked off in error which you can’t undo which is frustrating when you don’t know what it was.Version: 5.2.6
✓ Not for apple watch??Bit confused — as the other Carrot Apps are also on the watch... I brought this to use on my watch, but it doesnt seem to show up / isnt available for install. Though Carrot Weather and Fit both show up... maybe a user error my end? Is this the case? Hopefully I’m an idiot and a Dev will come correct me. But a shame and a little confusing/misleading if so... Looks like a great app — just warning any watch users, as I couldnt find anything to confirm it either way online...!.Version: 5.2.6
✓ Not a lot of options - more for amusement than getting things doneCan’t really do much without leveling WAY up! This is more for amusement than actual getting anything done. You can’t schedule due dates or times, or schedule repeat reminders. And while the app will sync levels across devices, it does not sync tasks so that isn’t helpful. Unless you are turned on by poking ocular sensors and hearing Carrot’s droll, gravelly, 2 pack a day voice just use iOS reminder app or get something like Appigo’s ToDo Cloud.Version: 5.2.6
✓ MehI’m sure there’s a snarky response to this - and I sure don’t care. Just like I don’t really care about the snarky responses I get from this app. I am continually searching for an app that helps me get crap done. And even paid the $3 bucks based on the reviews but it’s nothing special. Okay, I got a cat. There are points. Cool I guess. It didn’t help me at all and I’m deleting it now. I wish I would have spent the money on something better. Pros: Easy to use right away Once you “earn” features, it helps Kinda funny - just kinda Cons: Very basic in the beginning (I get it, you earn features) Not funny, I mean come on Wish it could have even better features like: - daily “to dos” you could repeat - a timeline for features (I need to do this task this week, not necessarily today) - little nudges - being able to set up reminders (aka, drink water every hour, get up and move every hour, something). Like I said, I’m deleting. Good for them that I gave the $3 to try it..Version: 5.2.5
✓ Pretty good.I wish is could add daily tasks and didn’t have to type everything in each time. I like the snarkiness and it does make me want to get stuff done. I just wish it was more streamlined or maybe had a way to add back frequently typed in task. I was using a daily decision wheel that I could add and take away stuff but didn’t delete things as they were done just blacked them out so they wouldn’t be selected again if we could just merge the 2 I’d be happy..Version: 5.2.6
✓ Lack of Updates, EtcLook I know you’ve been super busy with the weather app but this is ridiculous, your other apps are falling way behind with the lack of updates, especially this one, because of it, I hate to say it but it looks like I’ll be deleting this from my phone very soon which is a shame because it’s been one of my most used and favourite to do apps ever, I’ve had Carrot To Do from when it was first released and never deleted it once from my home screen but it looks like it has come to that 👎 5 stars, down to 3 stars, now down to just only 1 star, please let me know when you decide to update and add new features to this app by replying to this review, thanks 🙏.Version: 5.2.6
✓ Entertaining at First, Just Average after thatAt first it keeps your attention, while you are getting basic functionality improvements as rewards. Once the basic functions are unlocked, it’s provides useless game like rewards. I don’t have time to waste playing with a virtual cat... Has a good simple interface and auto complete suggestions as you type. Major problems: Cannot just repeat items, have to re-enter, and there is no bulk delete for done tasks, you have to delete one at a time.....Version: 5.2.6
✓ Standard features locked behind level systemI love the Carrot weather app. I’ve spent far to long reloading locations to see what hilarious things it’ll say next. So when looking for a to do list this seemed a no brainer! However not being able to set repeatable todos (for example go for a run every other day) and not being able to set times / notifications for todos makes it near useless for me. What better way to encourage me to get out and get stuff done than a delightfully offensive AI calling me a worthless meatbag? Every other todo app I’ve messed with has these simple features but sadly no evil AI. I can however still poke it in the eye. So that certainly goes in the win category. Edit: while I stick to what I said these features apparently are unlocked at higher levels.(18 and 28) But I since I can’t really use the app with out them I guess I’ll just sit here and farm tasks for a few hours ? This seems like a bad design choice. These should at the very least be unlocked at early levels. 2-5 maybe..Version: 5.2.5
✓ Waste you’re money on this appIf your looking to waste your money on an app this is the one , what a joke , would not recommend to anyone..Version: 5.2.6
✓ It's okGetting the hang if it.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Useless for important tasks; no history and too easI quite like it; it’s just a to do list. With a little bit of humour. But unlike most lists, you can’t see what you have done, nor when, so if it’s a task you need to do again, it’s useless. No schedule either. I’ve also managed to delete at least 3 tasks accidentally coz my phone is a ‘swipe up’ and if I happen to swipe a little to the right, it’s way to easy to delete a task - it doesn’t check that I meant to, and as there’s no history, I can’t see what it was. Let’s hope they weren’t important. Maybe I’ve missed a setting but if so ... where?! All told, it’s Very Clever Marketing: £3 for a too-simple to do list. Hey ho..Version: 5.2.6
✓ Isn't as good as you first think.Honestly, at first I thought it was fantastic but it doesn't help me do anything in the end. Also it lacks the functionality that the default reminder app has. So what's the point of shelling out money for this app when you have that default app that does things so much better? I don't know. You tell me. I'm deleting this app as soon as I finish writing the review because let's face it, it's pointless..Version: 5.2
✓ Funniest to do app, needs update for new devices.I remember when this app first came out almost a decade ago. I loved poking and prodding Carrot, and fearing for my life with every tap. I saw the weather app last year and it brings me joy every day. So I thought, dang I should buy the todo app again! Only to be disappointed that it looks really bad on my XS. I get it, it’s an old app and it’s a wonder it still even runs! Hopefully with the renewed interest from other people using Carrot Weather, the devs will have a reason to spend some time updating this app too..Version: 5.2.6
✓ Could have potentialCosts way too much for the level it is at now. Is way too opinionated from the start. You forget that people pay for this rubbish. You could be a lot more creative with your ideas. Honestly if I didn’t pay for this I’d delete it.Version: 5.2.4
✓ I need a To Do list that worksI need a To Do list with reminders and Sync and other standard features from the outset - not to have to ‘earn’ credits to unlock them. A shame because Carrot ultimately appears to offer a good product..Version: 5.2.6
✓ Gimmick - fun for five minutesFun to fool around with for a bit but way too gimmicky. Carrot gets mad when you aren't being productive, and apparently that includes sleeping. You will soon finding yourself creating pointless tasks for the sake of checking them off and earning points to try to unlock better rewards. Neat idea but needs more thought and practicality..Version: 1.0
✓ Gimmick gets old fastI’m a big fan of the snarky AI trope popularised by a certain 2007 video game! However for me the negative reinforcement provided by Carrot as I complete tasks doesn’t translate to a sense of accomplishment unlike the typical dopamine rush of ticking off a to-do list. I find myself only using it for work tasks and not hobby or home chores because I don’t want to associate the feeling of using the app with things I enjoy. Unfortunately that leads to another problem: Carrot gets mad way too fast. In between going to bed for the evening and arriving at work she will already have decided that you’re not productive enough. If you’re easily stressed, breaking down tasks into a list can be your biggest ally in understanding what you can achieve and avoiding feeling overwhelmed. What isn’t helpful is a little red reminder telling you numerically just how much you have left to do. If you have mental health issues such as anxiety or you want a to do list app that won’t exacerbate the feeling that you’re not doing enough, you should avoid this app. The gimmick is cute if you find negative reinforcement neutral or even motivating. I felt like since I paid for it I had at least try to use it, I got up to level 14 in about 4 months but I think I’ll go back to the notes app..Version: 5.2.6
✓ Effective but tiresome after over a year.I’ve been using this to-do app for over a year now, and while it has been effective, a year later I’ve grown tired of the constant nagging and snarky comments to motivate me (I used to be more amused by them, but am now weary of them). And so I’m going back to another to-do app that I liked and used in the past. My biggest wish with this app, which still has not been granted, even though I emailed the developer regarding it about 10 1/2 months ago, was to set windows of time that are off limits to CARROT, such as for when I’m sleeping or working, during which times I’m not able to complete tasks in my to-do list. I received a response saying this was a good idea for a future upgrade, but that was many months ago, and the functionality still hasn’t been added (I read another user’s review that echoed similar sentiments). I just find it disappointing that I get CARROT in a good mood by completing a bunch of tasks and later find CARROT in a bad mood because of time I was not able to spend completing tasks due to the need for getting sleep or working at my job, which in my opinion is not fair. I really hope the developer adds this ability in a future update..Version: 5.2.6
✓ TaskI only had one task that I needed to do 5 times a day. This app was not able to do that (reward me when completed) and not enough info was provided before I purchased it..Version: 5.2.6
✓ Wow just terribleWaste of money. Locks most of its usability behind a “leveling up system” completely out of place in a to do list app. Then pressures you to pay more money to “unlock” these features. Greedy money grab, could have been great if executed properly..Version: 5.2.6
✓ Hit or MissPros: -Clean interface -Witty -Has a lot of potential Cons: -Very basic features are turned into unlockables when they should be available from installation (things like Edit task names should be just there without having to be earned) - Not great for anyone who doesnt have a million things to do every day, she gets angry if youre not busy at all hours, dont sleep, she hates that...kind of like an obsessive girlfriend. -A user specified timer would be fantastic; "Kill Bears, 45 minutes", "Return borrowed item, Thursday" -If youre doing the in-app shopping thing, please give more options! More colors, different voices or personality packs, not just a couple and a bunch of mood fixers. -Spending money to keep an app from getting mad at me for not touching it every hour on the hour is unfair and rather greedy. I know theres lots of cons there, but actually I really like Carrot, I really hope for better updates and expansions, I guess my main Con is that I want more ways to enjoy it!.Version: 5.2
✓ Great potentialIt's been a year since iphone X came out and the app still does not support the extended screen. Used to love this app but without filling the whole screen it just looks terrible..Version: 5.2.6
✓ People have to sleep tooI like the concept of this app, but one thing that frustrates me is the hours spent sleeping always seem to count against me. It would be nice if the app integrated with the “bedtime” feature on the phone so CARROT would know when I’m asleep, or supposed to be. Other than that, I think a “reminders of all the unlocked things you have” feature within the app itself would be helpful. I forgot how to do the swipe down to add another task thing for weeks because I didn’t immediately try it before accidentally doing it and figuring it out. Who knows, maybe these are features that will get unlocked when I reach a certain level, but for now they are making the app less than ideal for me..Version: 5.2.6
✓ Too much wasted space on newer iPhonesGreat App let down by large borders at top and bottom of the latest iPhones.. Sorely needs an upgrade.Version: 5.2.6
✓ Demanding !If you don't open this app and do something every hour, it gets in a bad mood. Unrealistic unless you are OCD with lists !!.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Infuriating trashThis app has a mood based on how much activity you complete in it. But I paid for the improved mood boost and it STILL gets super pissy if I do my job at work without using the app. Complete 14 tasks over the weekend and the app will still scream at you and tell you you are failing on Monday. Demotivating needy whiny garbage..Version: 5.2.6
✓ Don't like the attitudeCute but after awhile I get sick of your attitude. Good bye.Version: 4.0
✓ StupidThis app is stupid. Unless you can get everything done in one day!.Version: 3.0.1
✓ RudeStarted out funny but it keeps getting ruder..Version: 4.0
✓ Limp CARROT1. Pay for app 2. Realize the features that you want aren't accessible right away until after you've paid for app 3. Waste time making reminders to try and get access to useful features so you're more productive 4. Get further behind 5. Forget to use CARROT.Version: 3.0.1
✓ No excuse for not supporting X models.The notched devices have been out for a long time now... When I pay £3 for an app id expect it to be up to speed.Version: 5.2.6
✓ Quite lame reallyIt's really quite boring, hopefully it will get better. I'm making up tasks just to get to a more exciting level...not there yet!.Version: 3.0.1
✓ DOWN RIGHT WEIRD!This app was funny to begin with but after awhile it has started to come up with weird things like: I can see you, what was that sound? & also another that said who was the weird man staring at you this morning? That morning my boyfriend was looking at me while I was asleep. This app is not good for anyone who may be or is paranoid and I think I may have to delete it. Just way to weird for me, waste of money!.Version: 4.1.3
✓ Simple To-do App with humourThis is a great app if you have between a handful of chores or tasks to complete. However, it lacks the feature set of a more heavy duty app. Hilarious, funny, small set of features that leaves the user feeling underwhelmed and disappointed..Version: 4.1.3
✓ UmmMakes no sense. Oh now you have a kitten! Don't poke me! Complete tasks! Feed your kitten! Not worth money..Version: 4.0
