## What is Pomodoro Focus Timer?

Stay focused, block distracting apps, and finish what you start with Deeply - a Pomodoro focus timer, app blocker, study planner, and body-doubling companion in one beautifully simple app.

Whether you are studying for exams, doing deep work, building an ADHD-friendly routine, or trying to reduce screen time, Deeply helps you start faster, protect your attention, and build consistent focus habits.

BLOCK DISTRACTING APPS

Focus Shield helps you stay away from distracting apps while you work or study. Choose which apps to block during a focus session, or schedule Focus Shield for the hours when you need uninterrupted concentration.

Need extra accountability? Commitment Mode adds deliberate friction when you try to end a session early, helping you follow through on the goal you set.

A FLEXIBLE POMODORO FOCUS TIMER

Choose the focus method that works for you:

• Classic 25-minute Pomodoro sessions
• Custom focus and break durations
• Longer deep-work sessions
• Open-ended stopwatch mode
• Tasks, projects, and tags
• Intentional break reminders

Live Activities, Dynamic Island, StandBy, widgets, and Apple Watch support keep your timer visible without repeatedly reopening the app.

LIVE FOCUS ROOMS AND BODY DOUBLING

You do not have to focus alone. Join live Focus Rooms such as Cozy Café, Silent Library, and Coding Cave to work alongside others in real time.

See who is currently focusing, send encouraging reactions, and use body doubling to create gentle accountability. Public Focus Rooms are free to join, while Deeply Pro lets you create custom rooms of your own.

PLAN YOUR DEEP WORK

Turn your intentions into a realistic focus plan:

• Schedule focus sessions throughout the week
• Organize work with projects and tags
• Sync focus time with Apple Calendar
• Launch planned sessions with less friction
• Build healthy break habits such as hydrating, stretching, walking, or breathing

TRACK YOUR FOCUS AND BUILD CONSISTENCY

Understand where your time goes with clear productivity insights:

• Daily, weekly, and monthly focus statistics
• Focus streaks and achievements
• Session history and activity reports
• Time tracked by project or tag
• Insights into your most productive hours

CREATE YOUR PERFECT FOCUS ATMOSPHERE

Set the mood with calming ambient sounds including rain, white noise, café ambience, fireplace sounds, and more. Connect Apple Music to automatically play your chosen focus playlist when a session begins.

Personalize your timer with multiple themes and custom colors so your workspace feels like your own.

### 4/5 — App for mac

*2026-07-29*

Hi, i have been using this app for focused productivity and it is helping me to prioritise things, i loved the scheduled tags which will be shown in the calanders, which helps in spaced repetition. I would love to see the same app on my mac or through the web so i can keep timer on one screen while i work in my ipad. It really helps alot.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the thoughtful feedback! 😊 I am really glad Deeply is helping your workflow. Great news - Mac support is already in the works and will be included in the next update. 
Thanks for the suggestion and for supporting the app!

### 5/5 — does exactly what it promises

*2026-07-27*

Clean design, focus shield blocks the apps i tell it to, and the streak tracking keeps me honest. No bloat no ads - just a pomodoro app that works.

### 5/5 — Focus

*2026-07-26*

using deeply focus app for my sketch sessions from last few days and honestly i am loving it. I can block my social media apps so i can finish what i start, and the commitment mode is brutal in the best way so no escaping mid session. only thing i'd love is a cafe background sound, that's my whole painting vibe. I hope i will see it in the future updates.

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot for the kind words! 😊 It's awesome to hear you're using Deeply Focus for your sketch sessions and that Commitment Mode is helping you stay with your work.

We already added restaurant background sound in our recent update but will look forward to add cafe sound too in our upcoming updates.
