A fixed interval doesn’t know if you just found your stride. If you resent the bell, Mindmizu is built for you. Stay with the work. Past the plan, extra minutes bank toward a longer, calmer break—rest that matches the effort, not a generic pause. You get tunable modes, overrun banking, focus and rest states, phase-matched music, app and site blocking, a planner you can peek mid-session, logbook and heatmaps, and Calendar & Health when you want them. Calm underwater UI on macOS (menu bar), iPad, and iPhone. #Dive on your terms Depth you can tune • Quick — 15 min • Routine — 25 min • Intense — 50 min • Deep — 90 min • Zen — count up, no hard stop Breaks follow actual focus time—not a fantasy schedule. A timer that doesn’t punish flow Overrun time adds to what you can take on the other side. The zone is not a mistake. Where you are in the work Focus: Descending → Deep Flow → Fatigue Rest: Resting → Recharged → Stalling (don’t let rest turn into drift) Music that does a job Tracks support entrainment and masking for the phase you’re in—sound that gets out of the way while you work. Block what breaks you Pick apps and sites, keep blocking on for the session, use a 5-minute bypass or session-only off when you need it. Progress you can see Diver patches: Depth (modes, repeatable), Consistency (streaks 5–60 working days), Experience (10–1000 sessions). Celebrations in rest; history in Logbook → Milestone. Plan, then work Checkboxes, bullets, headings; peek the planner without leaving focus. See your depth Log task, mood, and distractions. Heatmaps from today through a year; export for AI or a sheet. Apple Health, Calendar, leaderboard Mindful Minutes to Health; sessions to Calendar with notes. Optional anonymous weekly board. Design Gauges and depth that mirror effort—not generic chrome. #Who it’s for • Writers, developers, designers • Students and researchers • Anyone building a serious focus habit • Optional friendly competition on the board #macOS and iOS macOS 14+ — Menu bar app; sessions can run in the background. iOS 17+ — Home, Planner, Logbook, Settings. Blocker — iOS: Screen Time; macOS: sites + help closing listed apps during focus. #Privacy Local by default. No ads or ad tracking. iCloud only for features you turn on (e.g. anonymous leaderboard). HealthKit, Calendar, Screen Time: opt-in. No account.
