Ich fühlte mich von Beginn an gut begleitet: durch Eingehen auf meine Anfragen seitens konkreter Mitarbeiter von focusmate. Es entstand z.B. kurzer Austausch per E-Mail, und ich lernte weitere Funktionen kennen: z.B. wie ich mich direkt beim Partner der Sitzung entschuldigen kann, wenn bei mir kurzfristig ausnahmsweise etwas dazwischen gekommen ist. Auf mich wirkt der Umgangs"ton" von focusmate sehr wohlwollend (!), leicht, auch heiter. Das "steckt an" - so ist auch der Grundtenor seitens der Partner in den Sitzungen. Auch wenn einer von beiden äußert, mal nicht so zufrieden zu sein mit seinen/ihren Ergebnissen, scheint er/sie akzeptierend und optimistisch die Sitzung zu verlassen. Mich erleichtert sehr, dass ich - einmal entschieden - kaum willentliche Energie brauche, sondern mich von zeitlichen, räumlichen und personenbezogenen Faktoren geführt fühle, wenn ich meinen Aufgaben nachgehe.

I absolutely love focus mate. while sometimes I have an unproductive session. 99% of the time I am so much more productive than I would have been without it. the only annoyance is when you are matched but then the partner changes, or there is a no-show. but it happens soo infrequently that it really is just part of is working with humans. another thing love is being able to have gender-preferences, having task lists that can be checked off, favouring people, snoozing people. I particularly love the snooze feature as I dont like seeing the same person in one day to me is feel awkward so snoozing them for 8 hours is perfect.

It was great; I do actually like it The cons I notice are that I consistently change partners, but so far I do enjoy it; it has helped my productivity. So I'm thankful in my life i have this platform.

I tried Focusmate a couple of years ago and it worked perfectly for me. Now that I'm back in my thesis writing-up season, I honestly can't wait to use it again. There's something about having another person on the other side of the screen that makes it so much easier to actually sit down and get started. It's simple, supportive, and genuinely helps me stay accountable. Highly recommend it to anyone who struggles with focus or procrastination!

Look its such an amazing idea, and truly well developed. This site has no bugs or glitches as far as I can tell, (and I use the service daily), and was made with a 'community first' approach. There are members of the Focusmate support team who are always quick to respond and love hearing feature suggestions and recommendations. Truly a very flexibile site, while also keeping safety, privacy and security paramount in its service. They hit the major problem of accountability / isolation in one, where people can hold each other accountable for their tasks and work on it no matter what it may be or what corner of the world you may be from. You can have silent sessions where you communicate via chat if you prefer, or directly talk to your focusmate partner. Sessions can be 25/50 or 75 minutes long depending on your needs. People can be actively doing work and away from desk or not and the website does a great job of matching people up accordingly. In all the sessions I've had across all the times slots and early mornings and late timezones, I have never encountered any harrasment or violation of privacy or security. I have thoroughly been greatful for this service and only wished I discovered it sooner.

I have always struggled to focus on tasks without getting distracted or bouncing from one thing to the next and not accomplishing much. A friend suggested that I try Focusmate and is working very well for me. I love feeling accountable for not only myself and my task goals but also for the person I am on the coworking session with. This has been an absolute game changer for me. I am grateful for the experience I am having using this platform. I hit 50 sessions today!

What an amazing platform. I am not a psychology expert, so I don't know how it works, but I know for sure it does. Since I started using Focusmate, my productivity has increased, and I have more time to enjoy my family and time with friends.

Focusmate is awesome - give it a go... I can't recommend it more highly!!
