Punto is the smarter way to get things done. Do you know the Pomodoro method? Well, if you use it, you’re doing it wrong. Science has shown time and time again that working with a high level of focus for longer periods of time is far more effective than taking a break every 25 minutes. Thanks to Deep Work, you’ll be able to finish your tasks in much less time (and rest more) β€” or achieve much more in the same amount of time you used to spend studying. Welcome to Punto, an app designed to help you focus better β€” not just for longer. With carefully crafted questions that estimate your level of focus during each session, Punto calculates your focus score, letting you analyze your progress and motivating you to push your focus to the max every time you study. You can also set daily study goals, making it easier to stick to them. In Punto, you can log all your study sessions in one place: your diary. You can add titles, descriptions, and even tags to your sessions, and they’ll be saved so you can review them whenever you need. With Punto’s diary, studying feels more satisfying, and tracking your sessions helps you stay committed to a steady pace. In the Statistics section, you’ll find several charts that visualize your progress over time. You can analyze both your total study hours and your concentration level, and the β€œby tags” view lets you check whether you’re spending way more time on one subject than another. Punto has many more features, but I won’t spoil them here. Don’t waste another minute β€” try Punto.
