I love the moo! Delights me (and often my partners, when I arrive earlier than the alarm) hahaha :D

Thanks for creating and making the app. I use it when I use focusmate. They recommended it to me when I had an issue; and they have been slowly adding some of the app's features to their platform. It would be great to have the before and after settings match such as options: 10, 20, 30 seconds and 1,2, 5 minutes. It would be good to also change some of the alarms to common standard such as a bell. The chime alert has recently slightly lower in volume than my audio settings. The only one that is consistant is the chirp -which is not an ideal alert. I'm using Chrome on Windows 11.

Thank you so much for making this! I second the notion that it would be great if session start notifications had the same time interval options as the end. :)

This app worked really well in the beginning. About a month after I added it to Chrome, it suddenly stopped making the reminder sound, which caused me to miss several Focusmate sessions. I'm not happy with this app at all.

I love FM and FocusAlarm makes it even better. I only wish there was multiple options for how long BEFORE the session it rings. I'd like to get notified about a minute before, in case I'm not at my desk, or on a different window/tab. Also I think it has twice not rung before my session when I was on a different tab. Not that I really minded, it's still great!

I would love some more options for how early the notification sounds, such as 1/3/5 minutes before session starts.

This helps me start sessions on time more often. Thank you!!! I don't use the pre-ending alarms, although I'll try out the 20-second one. Feature request: could the developer(s) please add more options for the sound that goes off before the session starts, e.g. 1 minute or 2 minutes early?

Unpredictable. Doesn't work right now. Doesn't work a lot of times.
