## What is Pet Pause?

Pet Pause is a quiet Pomodoro timer for people who like working in focused blocks — and who could use a little company on their breaks.

Start a focus session. While the timer counts down on your Dynamic Island and lock screen, the app stays out of your way. When the session ends, a small animal companion slides into view and stays with you through your break.

That's the whole app.

— FROM THE PET GATEKEEPER FAMILY —

Pet Pause is the mobile companion to Pet Gatekeeper, the browser extension that lets cats and dogs wander across your screen between tabs. Same cozy cast — now on your iPhone, paired with a focus timer. If you came here from Cat Gatekeeper or Dog Gatekeeper, hi.

— FEATURES —

• Customizable focus (1–90 min) and break (1–60 min) durations
• Live Activity on the Dynamic Island + lock screen — countdown ring + MM:SS, the same way Apple's Timer works
• End-of-session notifications — tap to jump straight into the next phase
• A small cast of cute pet companions, more on the way
• Light and dark themes, follows system automatically
• Bilingual: English and 简体中文

— PRIVACY —

Pet Pause does not collect anything. No analytics, no accounts, no ads, no third-party SDKs that phone home. Everything you set — your durations, your pet, your theme — stays on your iPhone. Read our full policy at:

— REQUIREMENTS —

• iOS 16.1+ (Live Activities)
• Dynamic Island countdown looks best on iPhone 14 Pro and later, but the lock-screen widget works on all supported devices
