Better than pomodoro

I used this app to help me study for boards and I feel like it’s helped me study so much more efficiently than pomodoro!

The 2 minutes allows me to get situated and plan out what I need to do. The 20 minute stretches are long enough to get a section done but not too long that I get fatigued.

I especially love the 5 minute breaks. When I get too long of a break I lose motivation on my main task but 5 minutes is perfect for me to doom scroll or do a small task around the house!
