Choose three things from today's five and finish them in short sprints. Sprint Focus combines the pomodoro idea, sprint training and habit building into one timer that is deliberately small — small enough that starting never feels like a decision. TODAY'S MENU, GENERATED FOR YOU Five items are drawn from the menu you keep switched on: studying, reading, exercise, tidying, idea work, anything you like. You pick three. SPRINTS OF 3 TO 20 MINUTES - 3 minutes times 3 sets (standard) - 5 minutes times 5 sets (hard) - Or a fully custom setup Choose between timed sprints, task sprints and count-based tasks. YOUR OWN MENU Add whatever you want: "read for 10 minutes", "five ideas", "tidy for 3 minutes". HISTORY AND PROGRESS Daily completions and total time are recorded, so the habit has something to lean on. A MORNING NUDGE A 9am notification tells you today's candidates are ready. WHO IT SUITS - Anyone who wants to concentrate on study or exam prep - People building a habit a little at a time - Anyone trying to keep reading or tidying going - People who bounce off complicated task managers - Anyone who finds short bursts easier to sustain Strict, but easy to keep going. Doing three things a day is enough to start moving.

Make your own time work for you. The day fills up and disappears. You studied hard, but you cannot really feel how far you got. TimeHack is a deliberately simple time log that turns those hours into something you can see. WHAT IT DOES Simple to record. No setup, no accounts. Add an entry and mark it done. Analysis that fits the question. Today, this week, this month, this year - your time is totalled up for you automatically. Progress you can see. Study, reading, training: watch the hours add up as a chart. "I actually did this much" is what carries you into tomorrow. Find the time you were losing. Once the aimless hours are visible, your days settle into a rhythm on their own. GOOD FOR - Logging study for an exam or a qualification - Tracking billable or side-project hours accurately - Anyone looking for a simple tool to build a habit - Ending the day with something to show for it BUILT TO STAY OUT OF THE WAY Recording should never feel like work, so everything unnecessary has been stripped out. Every time you open the chart, your effort is right there. Your entries stay on your device. Nothing is sent anywhere. Export to CSV any time from Settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Sprint Focus at none against TimeHack's shown. Sprint Focus also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 months). TimeHack's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
