1Task vs FlowMate

A focus timer that only lets you work on one thing at a time. Type what you're doing. A timer starts. When you're done, rate how it felt and add a note. Your reflections build up over time. Look back at your streaks, focus time, and figure out which tasks leave you energized or drained.

FlowMate is a gentle focus timer that supports time awareness without pressure. It helps you stay present with what you’re working on without constantly watching the clock. It’s especially helpful if you experience time blindness or overwhelm, or find traditional productivity timers stressful. Start by naming what you’re focusing on. If it helps, jot down a few small tasks to ground your attention without turning your session into a to-do list. For things you return to regularly, keep reusable checklists. Arrange items in the order you want to work through them, and let completed items move out of the way so what’s left stays in view. Choose calm visual timers that help you feel time passing. Optional sound cues and spoken time updates can help you stay oriented, or you can work in complete silence. FlowMate adapts to how you work. Use Pomodoro sessions or set your own pace. Pause, adjust, or stop anytime. There are no streaks, performance scores, or guilt for changing your plans. When you want to look back, your session history can help you notice your focus patterns. Use FlowMate without an account, or sign in to sync your sessions across your phone, the web, and the FlowMate browser extension. FlowMate is for anyone who wants a calmer relationship with time, including people with ADHD, time blindness, or sensory sensitivity. Use it for studying, creative work, daily routines, care tasks, or moments when getting started feels hard. Whether you’re settling into deep focus or simply trying to begin, FlowMate supports you at your pace.
