All of us waste time and hate ourselves for doing so. All we need is just one nudge, one mental reset to get out of that rut and get on with our lives. That's exactly what Just Press helps you to do. Whenever you catch yourself doomscrolling, playing games, or procrastinating aimlessly, just go to our app, and press the button. By pressing the button, you make a social contract with yourself to stop procrastinating and to stop 'being a piece of sh*t'. It serves as a mental reset, a psychological fresh start from which you can bounce back and do the task you wanted to do. You can also track your progress with the Calendar. Here, it shows how many times you've pressed the button each day. First, we want to see the number of presses growing as you train yourself to press the button whenever you want to procrastinate. Gradually as you develop more self control, the numbers should start falling. The button sounds like a doorbell for a reason too: We want you to imagine your best future self standing outside your house, and ringing the doorbell, asking you to let them into your life. Do you want to become that best future version of yourself? Answer the doorbell when they ring, and stop procrastinating, and get stuff done. It all starts with Just Press.

**The only timer that actually tracks focus.** Most timers count the clock—not your attention. Every coffee run, every glance at your phone, still counts as “focused time.” Timero is different. It uses on-device AI to detect when you’re actually at your desk and focused, so only real focus time counts. **AI PRESENCE DETECTION** • Uses your device’s front camera to detect when you’re present and looking at the screen • Automatically pauses the timer when you step away—no more cheating the clock • Resumes the moment you return so you stay in flow • 100% on-device: no screenshots, no recordings, no data sent to servers. Your focus stays private. **POMODORO & NORMAL MODES** • Classic Pomodoro with configurable work and break lengths • Short and long breaks, with optional auto-cycling • Or use Normal mode for simple countdown sessions • Link tasks to sessions and track pomodoros per task **FOCUS SCORE & ANALYTICS** • Daily focus score based on completed sessions and interruptions • See how much you really focused today—not just how long the timer ran • Track streaks and build lasting focus habits **SMART REMINDERS & TASKS** • Unlimited tasks with estimated pomodoros • Mark tasks complete and see progress at a glance • Stay on top of what matters without leaving the app **DESIGNED FOR DEEP WORK** • Clean, minimal interface that stays out of your way • Standard and Strict detection modes: face-only or head-pose for stricter focus • Optional warning mode: a short grace period before auto-pause so brief glances don’t stop the timer **SUBSCRIPTION** Timero Premium unlocks presence detection, focus score, unlimited tasks, and full analytics. Choose monthly or save with an annual plan. Subscriptions auto-renew; you can cancel anytime in your App Store settings. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account. **PRIVACY** We take privacy seriously. Camera processing happens only on your device. We don’t store or transmit video or images. For details, see our Privacy Policy in the app. Download Timero and start counting the time you’re truly focused. Terms of Service - https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
