Read full description

Pomopush is a calm Pomodoro timer. Nothing moves while you focus, so the only thing that has your attention is your work. Breaks breathe; focus stays still. FOCUS YOUR WAY • 25-minute sessions with short and long breaks, or your own rhythm • Wind the timer: drag the dot around the dial to choose how long you focus • Say what you're working on, or pick it from today's reminders • "+5 min" when a session ends while you're in the flow, and undo for a skip or reset • Focus mode that fills the screen, in portrait and landscape, in pure black on OLED • Freeze a paused session under a layer of frost to keep it for later EVERY APPLE DEVICE • Apple Watch: a timer of its own with a full-screen ring, double tap to start or pause, the Digital Crown to set the length, and complications. Works without your iPhone • Start on iPhone and your timer follows on Apple Watch, iPad and Mac • Live Activity on the Lock Screen, in the Dynamic Island and in the Smart Stack on Apple Watch • Widgets, Control Center and the Action button • Siri and Shortcuts: ask for a timer in your own words, pause or resume by voice, or build a shortcut for a 50-minute session KEEP DISTRACTIONS OUT • Suggestions that learn what you work on at each time of day, and the next step: after Chapter 4 comes Chapter 5 • Link a Focus such as Work to start a session automatically • Music from Apple Music that pauses for your breaks UNDERSTAND YOUR FOCUS • Statistics for the week, your best time of day and what you worked on • An honest focus coach that names what holds you back this week, written on your device with Apple Intelligence • Streaks, achievements, a weekly goal and monthly events • Finished sessions in a Pomopush calendar in iCloud, if you like • After a session, note how it felt as State of Mind in the Health app, and count breaks as Mindful Minutes if you like PRIVATE AND ACCESSIBLE • No account, no ads, no tracking: Data Not Collected • Your history syncs through your own iCloud • VoiceOver, Voice Control, Larger Text, Reduce Motion and Increase Contrast supported throughout • In English and Dutch
