## What is Simple Pomodoro Timer + Watch?

A simple Pomodoro timer that helps you focus: 25 minutes of work, 5 minutes of break, repeat.

■ Truly works with Apple Watch
- iPhone and Apple Watch stay in sync in real time — control the timer from either device
- Works standalone on Apple Watch, no iPhone needed
- Feel a haptic alarm on your wrist exactly when the phase ends, even with the screen off
- Complications show the remaining time right on your watch face

■ Reliable in the background
- Notifications fire at the exact end time — even when the app is closed or the screen is locked
- Live Activity on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island shows the countdown at a glance
- Start and pause from Home Screen / Lock Screen widgets (StandBy supported)

■ Track your focus
- Completed pomodoros are logged automatically, with an optional task label (tag)
- See today / weekly / all-time counts, total focus time, and your streak
- Per-tag breakdown shows where your time actually went
- Set a daily goal and watch the progress dots fill up

■ Make it yours
- Customize work and break lengths (down to seconds)
- Long break every 4 pomodoros — the classic Pomodoro cycle
- Choose alert sounds, haptic strength, and ambient sounds

■ No strings attached
- No account, no sign-up. Open the app and start
- Just a small banner ad at the bottom — it never interrupts your focus (one-time purchase to remove)
