I just purchased an app called Time Master for my iPad for doing time tracking as I’m working on a number of projects. Unfortunately the developer doesn’t understand user interface and added every feature in the book. The application is unwieldily and it took me 15 minutes to setup 4 projects. In addition, when you add projects and other things, you get a warning to backup your data before editing/adding information. Wow, I sure can’t trust this program if the developer doesn’t even trust the database. The response I got from the developer is that there is no backup for the data. Well, warning the users every time they enter the setup is a very bad idea.
I had high hopes for this application, but wasted $10 on it and can’t find a way to get my money back. I used the “report a problem” link in iTunes and after writing my problem, I got a message that said to contact the developer. OK, fine. I wrote the developer and he claimed that the issues are things he can’t do anything about as his app works just like Contacts. He can believe whatever he wants to believe, but his application needs a user interface overhaul.
Here are some screenshots of the app. The configuration is far too complicated for a time tracking app.
