You keep showing up, but the time you put in soon fades from memory. Tsumoru keeps a record of the time you spend on yourself: reading, study, practice. The total only grows, so you can tell your own story of where your time has gone. Tap to start Stick an NFC tag on a book, a notebook, or your desk. Hold your iPhone to it to start a session, and again to stop. You can also start from the Action button or inside the app. Only real time counts While a session runs, the apps you choose to block show a screen first. Choose β€œPause & unblock” to pause the session, then reopen the app. That time isn’t counted, and when you come back to Tsumoru, the same session continues. Time you can’t pad Records come only from the timer. There’s no manual entry and no edit that adds time. You can shorten or delete a record, so the numbers stay honest.
