Focus Timer & To do
Read full descriptionHide full description
Whether your studying to ace that test, starting a habit of reading more, sketching more, or increasing your word count, Focus Timer offers simple features to help you recharge your focus and stay on the task at hand. Pomodoro Focus Timer has a minimal design to keep distractions away. It is an effective tool to retain motivation and focus. This app uses the Pomodoro Technique which is proven to keep you focusing on your work. Break up what seems like impossible tasks into short chunks and be surprised at how much you can get done. Decide what the task you want to work on is (ex. studying, writing, reading, note-taking, drawing, etc.). Focus sessions are pre-set to 25 minutes, simply press the play button to begin the timer. Roll up your sleeves and get to work, focus on your chosen task until the timer rings. The break sessions, which are pre-set to 5 minutes, will begin. Take the time to walk away from you work, and give your brain a chance to relax until the timer signals that it’s time to get back to work. Your amount of focus sessions completed are being tracked. Once you have completed 4, you deserve a longer break. Your pre-set Long Break session will begin to countdown, when the timer rings the cycle starts all over again.

You can't improve what you can't see. And most people have no idea where their time actually goes. TimeTruth is a self-improvement tool built on one habit: throughout your day, it checks in and asks what you just did. Hold the notification and type your answer right there, no app-opening required. Tag it green (moved you toward your goals), yellow (somewhat), or red (didn't). Fifteen seconds at a time, you build an honest picture of your life. Because that's where real improvement starts: not with motivation, but with the truth. BECOME WHO YOU'RE TRYING TO BE Pick the goals that matter, growing your business, getting healthier, learning skills, being present with the people you love, and see exactly how much of your life each one really gets. IMPROVE YOUR WORK AND YOUR LIFE Set your work hours and TimeTruth splits business time from personal time automatically. Your career and your life each get their own goals, their own check-ins, their own truth. A HABIT THAT TAKES SECONDS Hold the check-in notification and type right on it. Tap it instead for the full log with colors and goals. Small enough to actually stick, powerful enough to change how you spend your days. WATCH YOURSELF GET BETTER Your day builds into a colored timeline. Stats show your green trend over time, your best and worst days, and which goals are starving. Progress you can see is progress you keep. YOUR JOURNEY STAYS YOURS Everything you log lives on your phone. No account, no ads, no analytics. We never see your entries. Try TimeTruth free for 7 days, then $6.99/month. Cancel anytime. Stop guessing. Start improving.
