A Pomodoro timer that respects your attention. No accounts. No ads. No analytics. Nothing leaves your device — your settings and your history are yours alone. Open the app, start a focus session, and get to work. Set your own focus and break lengths with a simple scroll wheel — minutes only, no clutter. When a session ends, a gentle chime and optional vibration let you know it's time to switch. If you'd rather power through, breaks can be skipped, and the app remembers it honestly in your history. Set a daily cycle goal and watch it fill as you work. Each day's goal is frozen at midnight, so yesterday's record stays exactly what it was — changing your ambitions today never rewrites your past. The Reports view shows your focus history day by day: cycles completed, goals met, streaks of real work. All of it computed from what you actually did, stored only on your device. Light and dark themes. An option to keep the screen awake during focus. Local notifications so a finished session reaches you even when the app is in the background. Works completely offline. Built by ClawRock for people who want a timer, not a subscription.
