Turn focus time into gems

What's New in PomoGem

- During a focus, going to the Home Screen or another app now pauses the timer by default from the moment you left; tap Resume when you come back to continue. If notifications are allowed, up to five reminders say the focus is paused. On an iPhone with a passcode, locking usually keeps the timer running; without a passcode, locking also pauses it. Turn the pause or its reminders off in Settings > Focus Timer. - Settings now has nine entries grouped by purpose, making Focus Timer, Sound & Haptics, Records & iCloud, and other options easier to find. Navigation between settings and detail pages is now consistent. - Improved the jar’s depth so its Time Core is easier to distinguish from the gems in front. A transparent lid makes the closed opening visible, and pile light and mist follow gems more smoothly as gravity moves them. - The app interface is now available in English as well as Japanese. Ten gems form a crystal, and Weight Journey shows the next milestone for the time you have built up. - Louder timer-end alarms. By default (Standard), the sound you choose and a strong vibration continue until you stop them, the screen stays on meanwhile, and they stop by themselves after 3 minutes. New sounds: Bell, Digital, Marimba, School chime, and Alarm clock (break ends use them too). Choose Maximum to ring even with the silent switch on while the app is open and, on iOS 26 or later with alarms allowed, to ring an alarm when the app is not open. Choose them in Settings under Sound & Haptics. - Choose an Apple Music playlist or station to play during focus and breaks. An Apple Music subscription is required. Open it from the music button on the timer or Settings > Focus Timer > Focus Music. - Added optional Screen Time recording: each confirmed 10 minutes of combined learning-app use adds a 100-gram gem. Choose up to five learning apps for free, or unlimited apps with Pro. OS notification delivery may be delayed. - Selected distraction apps can add black gems. App selection is unlimited for everyone. Black gems combine only with black gems and stay outside study totals and sharing. - Screen Time settings remain responsive while saving, with safeguards against duplicate saves and duplicate records during changes or resets. - In iCloud mode, preview cloud contents and explicitly confirm replacing this device's data, including unsent changes, from Settings > Records & iCloud. Replacing all iCloud data with device data remains unavailable. - Improved launch retries and offline-access checks. Missing iCloud management information is no longer incorrectly described as another device replacing the data. - Screen Time learning records remain in your personal history and are excluded from shared images, GIFs, captions, and JSON export. Summaries with unverified contents are also excluded from external output.
