About

Sunny

Read full description

Sunny is a focus timer for people who drift, get bored, or burn out halfway through a long session. Instead of work then rest, you alternate two things you chose: a hard task and an easy one, writing and email, studying and a short game. Every switch resets your attention. Switching is the break. HOW IT WORKS • Pick two or more activities and give each one its own rule: 25 minutes, 10 minutes, or “until done” with no countdown at all. • Start. Sunny counts down, chimes, and asks you to switch. • When the chime rings, add 1 or 5 minutes, keep going, or switch. Done early? Hold to switch whenever you like. POMODORO AND FLOWTIME IN ONE Run the classic Pomodoro (25 minutes on, 5 off), short 10-minute bursts for days when focus is hard to find (a favorite with ADHD brains), or Flowtime-style blocks that run until you’re done. Mix them in one session: 20 minutes of reviews, then 7 minutes of a game, then back again. A TIMER YOU CAN TRUST WITH THE SCREEN OFF • The chime rings on time, even when the phone is locked. • Live Activity on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, with pause, resume and switch right there. • Sessions survive backgrounding, restarts, even force-quitting the app. Reopen and resume exactly where you were. • Home Screen widget to start your set in one tap. NO ACCOUNT. NO ADS. NO TRACKING. Everything stays on your device. Sunny works completely offline and never asks you to sign in. There is no quiz before your first timer: open, tap, focus. FREE FOREVER, PRO IF YOU WANT MORE The full timer is free: unlimited sessions, every interval rule, three activities and one saved set. The free tier never expires and never loses features. Sunny Pro adds unlimited activities and saved sets, session history, stats and streaks, and CSV export. Pay once for lifetime access, or choose yearly with a 7-day free trial for new subscribers, or monthly. MADE FOR • Work and deep focus: pair a demanding task with a lighter one and keep going for hours. • Students, exam prep and language learning: rotate subjects or drills so revision doesn’t stall. • ADHD and easily-bored brains: short bursts, frequent switches, zero guilt. No streak shaming, no nagging. • Chores, writing and side projects: anything you keep putting off gets small enough to start. • Anyone who hates sitting through a forced “break”. Sunny is built by one developer and has no servers. If something is off, write to support@sunnyfocus.app and a human answers.
