## What is Gamu Nemu?

Gamu Nemu is a privacy-first Pomodoro timer, focus timer, and study timer with one twist: a cat sleeps while you focus. Leave the session, and Gamu Nemu wakes up.

That small moment changes everything. A timer is easy to ignore. A sleeping cat is not.

Whether you are studying for exams, writing, coding, reading, or trying to stop checking your phone every few minutes, Gamu Nemu helps you stay present with a warm, gentle kind of accountability instead of pressure.

WHY GAMU NEKO WORKS

• Sleeping-cat focus mechanic
Start a focus session and Gamu Nemu falls asleep beside you. Leave the app during your session and you will see the result immediately.

• Pomodoro timer and break timer
Use the classic Pomodoro method or create your own rhythm with custom focus and break lengths.

• Tasks and projects
Plan what you want to finish before you begin. Keep your work organized with built-in tasks and projects, then move through them session by session.

• Focus history, streaks, and achievements
Track completed sessions, total focus time, current streaks, and milestones that reward consistency.

• Focus Aura and productivity diary
Turn sessions into visible progress. Save reflections, attach photos of your work, and build a record of what you are accomplishing.

• Cozy customization
Unlock cat packs and backgrounds, personalize your space, and make focus feel inviting.

• Private by default
No account. No cloud sync. Your core data stays on your device.

• Fully offline
Use Gamu Nemu in the library, on a flight, during commuting, or anywhere you want a distraction-free study timer and focus app.

• Backup and restore
Export your data and bring your tasks, settings, history, and diary back whenever you need.

WHO IT IS FOR

Gamu Nemu is made for students, remote workers, creatives, and anyone who wants a focus timer that feels supportive instead of harsh. If ordinary Pomodoro apps are too easy to ignore, Gamu Nemu gives you a reason to stay.

Focus deeply. Protect your time. Let the cat sleep.
