You opened your phone to check the time. Somehow, you're now watching a stranger renovate a bathroom. Stickly brings an app blocker, habit tracker and Pomodoro timer together, so your good intentions get a little more time on the schedule. GIVE YOUR ATTENTION SOME SPACE Choose distracting apps and set a blocking session for studying, reading, work or bedtime. Your thumb may file a complaint. BUILD HABITS YOU CAN SEE Track routines and count-based goals, see your progress in heatmaps and streaks, and earn medals for showing up. Small steps count. No motivational speech from a mountain. POMODORO, WITHOUT THE DETOUR Start a classic 25-minute focus session with 5-minute breaks. Keep the timer in sight with a Live Activity. “Just one more video” is not a recognised unit of time. FOCUS WITH A FRIEND Invite a friend to a shared Pomodoro session through a private iCloud connection. Accept the invitation, then the host starts the session. Both people need Stickly and iCloud. REMINDERS ON YOUR TERMS Choose reminder categories, timing and quiet hours. A habit app should not become another reason to check your phone.
