Read full description

PomoTask helps you find how long you can truly focus β€” then gently stretch that edge. PROGRESSIVE TIMER Start around 5 minutes. When you’re in the flow, the next block grows a little β€” up to 25 minutes. After each focus block, a quick check-in tunes what comes next: go longer, shorten, or take a break. STRUGGLE ESCAPE Stuck mid-session? Pause, cut about a third of the remaining time, or start a short break β€” no guilt, just options. CLASSIC POMODORO Prefer a fixed rhythm? Create custom timers with focus, break, and repetitions. Organize by Work, Study, Home, or Wealth. STATISTICS YOU CAN FEEL See week focus, streaks, active days, and a tomato splash calendar that turns every focus day into a hit. APPLE WATCH & WIDGETS Start and track sessions from your wrist. Toggle Progressive focus from the Home Screen. Check week focus and streaks at a glance. ALERTS THAT CUT THROUGH Optional AlarmKit alerts break through Silent mode and Focus when a session ends. Session notifications keep you on track in other apps. THEMES & ICONS Solid colors, gradients, and handcrafted app icons so your timer feels like yours. Classic mode stays free. Unlock Progressive with Pro for adaptive focus, check-ins, stats, and themes. Privacy-friendly: focus stats stay on your devices.

a minimal focus timer that helps you build deep work habits β€” without the noise. Start a session, pick a tag, and focus. Loop runs quietly in the background, tracking your time through the Dynamic Island and Lock Screen. When you're done, your session is saved automatically. - Simple by design : No Pomodoro pressure. No forced breaks. Just a clean timer that stays out of your way and lets you work at your own pace. - Tags for every kind of work: Create custom tags β€” Study, Work, Exercise, Reading, or anything else. See exactly where your time goes. - Stats that actually mean something: Weekly and monthly charts show your focus patterns at a glance. - Built for your rhythm: Night owl? Set a custom day boundary (e.g. 3 AM) so your late-night sessions count toward the right day. - Always within reach: Live Activity, Home Screen widget, Apple Watch companion app. - iCloud sync: Your sessions sync automatically across all your devices via iCloud. Start a session on your iPhone, check your stats on another device β€” everything stays in sync.
