Ripple is a focus timer that takes breaks as seriously as work. Most Pomodoro apps stop at a countdown. Ripple turns every break into real recovery — a calming photo from your own library, a song from your own music, a guided breath, or a few quiet minutes of darkness for your eyes. You choose how to recharge, and Ripple remembers your selection. WORK IN FOCUSED SPRINTS - Classic Pomodoro flow: focus, short break, long break - Fully adjustable — set your focus length, break lengths, and how often a long break arrives - A gentle chime marks the end of each session, with four sounds to choose from (or silence) - Your settings are saved and ready the next time you open the app BREAKS THAT ACTUALLY RESTORE YOU - Memory Photo — bring up a favorite photo full-screen and breathe - Music — play a track from your own library, with album art and simple controls - Guided Breathing — a calming 4-4-4-4 box-breathing animation - Dark Rest — the screen fades to near-black to rest your eyes A live timer stays visible during every break, so you never lose your place. DESIGNED TO FEEL CALM Ripple's "Liquid Metal" interface shifts color and mood as you move from focus to short break to long rest — a shimmering ring, soft glass cards, and a gentle drifting particle background. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Ripple keeps your data on your device. No accounts. No analytics SDKs. No tracking. No servers. Your music plays from your own library through Apple's system player — Ripple never uploads or stores your songs, photos, or health information. Focus better. Rest better. Ripple.
