【About Just Start】 We believe that "Starting" is the greatest action of all. Just Start is not just a timer; it’s your launchpad to beat procrastination. We stripped away the clutter so you can do one thing the moment you open the app: Act Now. 【Why Just Start?】 1. A Companion from the Stars: Laika Remember Laika, the first dog in space? She didn't disappear; she traveled to your phone. When you focus, Laika waits by your side on the screen. Whether you're studying late or working early, she is there. It’s not just a timer; it’s a warm, silent guardianship. 2. Pro Features Unlocked (Yes, Free) We believe your growth data belongs to you. No paywalls for self-reflection. 3. Unlimited Categories: Coding, Reading, Meditation—create as many tags as you need. Free. 4. Full History Stats: Your every minute counts. Access all history records, duration stats, and trend charts without paying a cent. Visualize your achievements. 5. Starlight Mode: A Connection Across Time Focusing can feel lonely, but not here. When you start the timer, you will see the glimmering starlight left by others who have traveled this path before you. Just like looking at the night sky, these lights are echoes of past efforts from people around the world. It’s a subtle "cloud companionship" that tells you: someone else has worked hard right here, just like you.
