## What is Anti?

Ever lost a brilliant idea because a timer went off at the wrong moment?

Anti-Pomodoro is a focus timer that works with your brain, not against it. Instead of rigid countdowns and forced breaks, you work for as long as you need and decide when to stop.

— HOW IT WORKS —

• Timer counts up like a stopwatch
• Gentle nudges remind you to check in (30, 45, 60, or 90 min intervals)
• You decide when to end—the app never interrupts your flow
• Track sessions and discover your natural focus patterns

— WHY ANTI-POMODORO? —

The Pomodoro technique works for some, but not everyone. If you've ever felt frustrated stopping mid-thought because a timer demanded it, this app is for you.

We believe your flow state deserves respect. No arbitrary 25-minute limits. No guilt when you "fail" to take a break. Just you and your work, for as long as you need.

— FEATURES —

• Count-up timer with start, pause, and end
• Configurable nudge intervals
• Soft haptic feedback—never jarring alarms
• Optional task labels that persist between sessions
• Session history with categories (Deep Work, Shallow, Meeting, Break)
• Daily focus time tracking
• Break quality tracking (walked, stretched, snack, scrolled, chatted)
• Flow Score system (1-6 based on session length)
• Deep Work badge for 60+ minute sessions

— PRO FEATURES ($0.99, one-time purchase) —

• Insights & Anti-Stats dashboard
• Track your average flow score
• Break quality analysis
• Peak focus time discovery
• Natural pattern recognition
• Export sessions as CSV
• Support independent development

— THE ANTI-POMODORO PHILOSOPHY —

Count up, not down
You decide when to break
Gentle nudges, never interruptions
No streaks, no guilt, no gamification

— PRIVACY —

All data stays on your device. No accounts. No cloud sync. No tracking. No ads. Just a simple tool that does one thing well.
