Just the perfect app to manage all of your notifications. Love the simplistic UI and the user-friendly approach of handling notifications from the various apps on your phone. Also, the dark mode looks super cool. Great going, guys! Keep up the good work. Edit (4/3/20): I've been using my roommate's spare phone ever since my phone was stolen and tbh, the only app that I felt was missing from his phone was daywise. Was constantly being bombarded with notifications. Truly, a must-have app.
Awesome. Makes notifications so much easier to manage. But I'd like to suggest additional features for future versions. One being the ability to batch different apps in different time slots so that we can choose to receive different notifications at different times. Also, it would be great to have the feature where certain notifications that the users set are enabled and notify them immediately throughout the day but by a certain time they become completey disabled. Like an auto disable.
This app looked really promising for defering notifications at certain times in a smarter way than the android's default do not disturb settings. But it doesn't let you set a time when it "batches" your notifications and a time when it doesn't. Once you set it up it's "on" all the time. If I wanted notifications to never be instant, I wouldn't have them set up in the first place. It looks like others have put similar feedback here but the developers aren't willing to accept it. Sadly uninstalled
Fantastic concept, but not usable for me in its current state. When notifications do come through, they need to behave like the app isn't there, which isn't happening in all scenarios (crucially, it's broken whenever phone set to vibrate only). Also as others say the ability to see the contents of the inbox in between batch release times and without pausing the app is missing.
The app is great and I've been a user since early days. I'm perfectly ok to pay a nominal one time or yearly fee to keep the app updated, as I value the developer's effort. But like many others have pointed out I don't see why I should pay a good recurring fee for an offline app. Makes me wonder if the developer wants to harvest user data but putting it on their cloud. Uninstalled until the pricing makes sense. You guys built a great app that many liked but now you are losing most of them.
Great idea! There are a few problems though, that keep me from using this app regularly. First off, I can't disable the app completely if I want to. Secondly, I can't add anymore batches. I'm stuck with 4 batches only, I'd like to add a few more. There are generally very few settings to tweak the app to ones likings.
This is a great app. This is probably the app which I have been looking for years. This is the only app which solved my notifications problem. But unfortunately, it doesn't work smoothly on my poco F1, it asks me to restart my phone frequently. And when it stops working, I start getting the notifications again, which is very disturbing. So I am gonna uninstall the app after I hit post. I request the developers to kindly notify me if ever they have fixed the above mentioned problems.
Great concept and product, but since they started subscription, what benefit does the app have over the native android 10 features? For example, if I turn on focus mode within digital wellbeing, that will only allow certain apps thru. and then in Do not disturb, I can even customize which contacts I want to allow thru. In addition Samsung Phones have the NotiStar app that shows all notifications, in a separate tab. In short, the need for app is outdated. One time payment would be doable.
This seems like a great app but it is missing a bit of functionality to me. It would be great to be able to schedule when this app runs. I would like to batch ALL my notifications when I'm trying to work but would like to have more of my notifications come through when I'm not working. I would settle for being able to turn all the batching on and off through a simple setting instead of it just being ON as soon as you set it up or uninstall it. If this setting exists it was not easy to find.
Was a 5-star app before needed paid subscription. I've been using this app for month. Loved it because instead of simply blocking notifications, it'd show me what I missed a specific times in the day. I really need an app that could do both, not just block. I didn't realize it was only a free trial until a few days ago. The app is useful, but I wish it was more clear from the beginning that it was only a trial. I really had no idea it was a trial since I'd had it for months.
The UI is quite easy to use. I've already tried to look for apps with similar functionality to this one, but really nothing to compares to its reliability and ease of use. 5 stars alone is not enough to how much it helps clutter out my phone's notifications.
I've been using Daywise for hardly a month, but it's already helped me *so* much. I was diagnosed with ADD years ago, and app notifs constantly got the best of me; oft got derailed with each ping from apps I *didn't* want to mute. I came across Daywise when I needed it the most, and it's been invaluable ever since. EDIT: Switching to a subscription-based model is completely understandable during these trying times. I've subscribed and I hope everything works out. Best of luck!
This app is great at what it does, and super simple to use. The lifetime sub is a single payment for like $7 more than a yearly. The lack of communication about the app going premium sucked, especially for the price of a yearly subscription without initially offering the lifetime option. But I'm more than happy to pay once to both support the developer and have access to the app forever. If you can justify the $30 after the trial it's totally worth it
Very good app. The only thing missing is to be able to set time periods and days of the week that stops batching notifications and delivers them all instantly, instead of having to manually pause the app. I'll have to hold on to using it until that feature is added.
The subscription model somehow doesn't make sense for me. The app is great, to be honest, but the cost is so high. Not all currencies are created equal. If you added localized pricing or add a one-time payment, I'll surely pay for it. I'll look for alternatives for now or I'll stay to an older version of the app.
Helpful app. Now my phone does not bother me unnecessarily during the day. Removing 1 star because the app is not detecting 'Microsoft SMS Organizer' app, which is a bummer, because I cannot whitelist it to show its notifications immediately. As a result, I cannot see the SMSes as they arrive if I've set Microsoft SMS Organizer as my default messaging app.
Can't find a "Clear All" feature. I wish this app had the feature to swipe down on a notification to see all the notification content. That'd be really handy. Also, I wish I would specify specific times of a day where I want to batch my notifications, for example, I batch them during working hours, and after working hours, I recieve them as they arrive. Better yet, add a feature where I batch notifications on speific days of the week, and receive them as they come on days when I'm not working.
I never really understood the subscription fees for an app which can run on the devices directly without any infrastructure need at the server end. Anything more than $1 or $2 is ridiculously high amount for this. I have uninstalled it. Others who are frustrated with this move by Daywise, try Spren (com.spren.android) for me it serves the purpose.
A useful app that empowers me to control the time to receive and read the notifications (especially those from the news apps). There is a bug that somehow pressing the notification items in the Daywise inbox does not open the corresponding app properly for some apps. If the bug could be fixed, the app will be perfect for me.
Great concept and implementation. But the subscription fee is unaffordable. It's higher than the least price of a password manager (around ₹950 for Kaspersky) per year. I felt it's better to stop the notifications from the apps completely rather than paying nearly ₹1000 per year. Unfortunately, can't keep this good app anymore because of this.
Good app, just dokt trust the auto setup. It wanted to show me yahoo mail immediately but not Gmail or my calendar and some messaging apps. The setup should just let you whitelist a few apps but not do anything automatically. Some people might not double check the recommendations and miss important notifications. Either way I recommend this app, just hope they rethink the auto setup feature.
I edited my review down to 1 star from 5 stars. The reason being they introduced a mandatory google sign-in and a new subscription fee for their app which works offine and has to apparent use for a 24x7 backend server or IT infra. The monthly subscription price is more than Spotify's price, and the yearly subscription is more expensive than Amazon Prime or Disney+ in my country. On top of it, they haven't replied to my email asking for details in the new charges.
A must have app. Will never be without it now EDIT: while the functionality is unparalleled and I have yet to find a suitable replacement, a subscription for this service is just not palatable to me. I would happily pay a one-time fee, even a heftier $10 one, but can't justify paying for it as an ongoing service.
Updated : subscription plans are too high to continue with this. May explore other options. Excellent app. It brings back your undisturbed productive time. You can setup time as to when you want to see non urgent notification and it show up in the app inbox - at your preset time.
LOVED it until the subscription model was forced on me. 1 time payment? Sure, I'd happily do that! Subscription? Nope! Too many things are going subscription based now: if new content or features aren't being offered frequently, I don't feel a subscription is appropriate. Of course that's just my opinion/criteria. I wish the developers the best in their future endeavours!
Previously gave 5 stars for this great app, but there was a notice that the app would go paid subscription in 6 days. I understand that developing the app isn't free, and I'd be happy to support by paying a one time a fee, but I am unwilling to pay a subscription for this app. It's possible that you'll again increase the cost going forward. I'll be uninstalling and searching for alternatives over the next few days...
This is one of the most helpful apps I've used on Android. Notifications had become so pesky that the sound of them alone was starting to cause me crippling anxiety. After realising this, I decided to search for an app that would help me overcome this and after finding multiple recommendations, I decided to use it and boy has my life changed now. I only see what's important to me. The rest of the junk can wait. The developers are very helpful as well whenever I've contacted them.
Many app notifications are not getting blocked. Batching of notification is the purpose of this app right? Assistant features is not working for example if you batch a person on what's app the message will still come through. I'm not getting priority messages which is set as instant on the app. Most of the time I will miss important texts. I can tolerate all of that. But taking 200 ₹ per month without any developer support is ridicules. If you reading this don't waste your money on it.
A must have for those who don't want to switch off all notifications, but also don't want to be disturbed every couple of minutes. Needs some effort to set up according to your preferences (real time vs. delayed notifications), but it's more than worth that effort.
Very useful. Two ideas, if you'd kindly consider. An easy way to set an interval of delivery (every hour). Secondly, making an option for random delivery of notifications. I find when I know my times I feel anxious waiting for delivery (9am, 10am, 2pm, etc.) If it were more random (or had the option to be) I feel I might just let it do it's thing. Either way, thanks for this app.
