About
20 Dots is a pomodoro timer that fits your actual day.
No start button, no remembering to start again after a break, it just works automatically, synced to the clock. Every half-hour is one pomodoro: 25 minutes of focus, then a 5-minute break - and the app is always exactly where the clock is. Open it, and you're already in rhythm.
Here's the quiet magic: meetings, classes, and video calls almost always start on the hour or the half-hour - the exact moments a normal pomodoro timer drifts past or things get messy. But because 20 Dots runs on the clock, your focus blocks land right there too. Your pomodoro practice and your calendar finally agree, instead of fighting each other.
Your day is 20 dots. Twenty focused half-hours, laid out in front of you, filling in as the day moves. It's a picture of your day, not a quota. End your day whenever you're done, and rest.
That's the whole idea: no streaks to protect, no notifications to dismiss, no accounts to make. Just a calm, honest picture of your day and a steady rhythm to work to.
WHY IT'S DIFFERENT
• Make your meetings - focus blocks land on the hour and half-hour, exactly when meetings, classes, and calls start.
• No start or stop - the timer follows the wall clock, so it never drifts and never needs babysitting.
• Begin anywhere - sit down at 9:17 and you're already mid-pomodoro; 20 Dots snaps to the half-hour you're in.
• Your whole day at a glance - 20 dots (ten hours on the clock, eight-plus of pure focus), filling as you go.
• A soft chime marks each switch between focus and break - the only sound it ever makes.
• Three faces - big digits, a pie countdown, or both. Your pick.
• Nothing to configure - open it and go.
