About

CLEPSYDRA

Features
Read full description

CLEPSYDRA is a quiet sequential timer for routines, focused work, study, practice, and any day that refuses to go exactly as planned. Instead of setting separate alarms, restarting timers, or forcing your life into rigid calendar blocks, you create a simple chain of tasks with durations. CLEPSYDRA runs them one after another, shows your progress visually, and helps you keep moving through your plan. Think of it as an upgrade to the Pomodoro technique. Classic Pomodoro timers work well when nothing interrupts you. CLEPSYDRA is built for real days: interruptions, delays, unfinished tasks, changing priorities, and the small chaos of ordinary life. If something cannot be finished now, you can send it back to the queue and continue. Your session can bend without breaking. The goal is simple: get everything done, one task after another, even when the day interrupts you. At the end, CLEPSYDRA gives you a clear session report: what you planned, what actually happened, how long things took, and what remained unfinished. Over time, this helps you understand your real working rhythm and plan future sessions more honestly. CLEPSYDRA is also AI-ready. Your AI assistant can easily create a list of tasks and durations, and you can paste the whole plan into CLEPSYDRA at once. Features: • Create a sequence of timed tasks • Paste multiple tasks at once • Move through your plan one task after another • Handle interruptions without losing the session • Finish a task later and return it to the queue • easily extend or reduce the active timer by one minute • Receive iOS notifications when a locked-screen timer finishes • Review and share a session report • Works locally, without accounts or sign-in CLEPSYDRA is intentionally minimal. No feeds, no tracking, no gamification, no complicated setup, and nothing to learn. Open it, add your tasks, start the first one, and the idea becomes clear immediately.
