Can't stay focused? Focusito doesn't just track time — it shows you where and why your attention breaks. Your AI-powered focus assistant analyzes every session and coaches you toward deeper, more productive work. Unlike basic Pomodoro timers, Focusito tracks your distractions in real time and boosts your concentration with personalized insights. GET STARTED IN 3 STEPS 1. Set Your Goal: Pick a category (Study, Work, Reading, Creative...) and set your timer. Tap "Focus" and the world stops for you. 2. Be Honest: When your attention drifts during a session, tap the "Distracted" button. This isn't failure — it's data! Focusito maps exactly which minute your focus broke. 3. Harvest Insights: When your session ends, mark how you felt and what caused distractions (fatigue, notifications, wandering thoughts...). Your AI coach delivers a personalized report. WHY FOCUSITO? A regular timer tells you "you worked for 25 minutes." Focusito tells you this: • Finds Your "Sweet Spot" — "Your most productive blocks are 12 minutes, not 45. After minute 13, your focus drops 80%." • Exposes Your Saboteurs — "This week, your own thoughts distracted you most. Maybe you need a meditation break?" • Mind Coach by Your Side — Weekly AI reports show which days you're most productive and how stable your focus is. • Builds Awareness — Every time you tap "Distracted," you train your brain's muscle to reclaim focus. AI-POWERED INSIGHTS After every session, get a personalized analysis from your AI focus coach. It identifies your distraction patterns, recommends optimal session lengths, and helps you understand when you concentrate best throughout the day. Weekly AI reports summarize your progress with actionable tips to improve concentration and productivity. DETAILED STATISTICS View daily, weekly, and monthly focus breakdowns with beautiful charts. Track your most productive hours, compare performance across different days, and share weekly report cards with friends. Clean, elegant visuals — not overwhelming data dumps. CATEGORIES & PROJECTS Organize sessions by subject — Study, Work, Reading, Creative, Exercise, or create your own. Compare focus scores across categories and discover which tasks demand the most concentration. STREAKS, GOALS & CHALLENGES Build consistency with daily streaks and weekly challenges. Set daily focus goals that progressively increase as you improve. Unlock achievements, earn streak freezes, and celebrate milestones. Invite friends with referral codes to earn premium days together.

About

Pomo Tender

Features
Read full description

Pomo Tender is a focus timer built to last, not to make you feel guilty. It follows the Pomodoro method — work sessions broken up by rests — without turning your attention into a score to beat. No streak to protect, no accusing reminder: your statistics tell you what happened, kindly. YOUR DATA NEVER LEAVES YOUR DEVICE Pomo Tender has no server and makes no network calls. No account to create, no tracker, no advertising. Your tasks, statistics and settings are encrypted locally (AES-GCM 256-bit) with a key tied to your device, and excluded from iCloud backup. Nothing reaches us, because there is no one at the other end. THE TIMER • Freely adjustable work and rest durations • Automatic cycle sequencing • Full-screen view with estimated finish time • Faithful recovery after the app is closed: elapsed cycles are recovered YOUR TASKS • Activity types, due dates, notes • Search by title, activity or date • Pomodoro counter per task • Start a session straight from a task YOUR STATISTICS • Focus time, completed cycles, consistency • Day, week, month and year views • Readable charts, never preachy ONE TIP A DAY A focus tip when you open the app, one per day, in a pop-up you dismiss with a tap. It follows what you actually work on: after a study, sport or creative session, every other tip comes from that same category. Can be turned off in settings. WHEREVER YOU ARE • Apple Watch: ring, controls and wrist haptics • Quick start widget on the home screen • Live Activity on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island • Interface adapted for iPad FIVE LANGUAGES English, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese. YOUR THEME Light or dark, Pomo Tender stays clean and distraction-free — that's the default theme, entirely free. POMO TENDER PRO Some features are gathered in Pomo Tender Pro, available as a one-time purchase or a subscription — both unlock exactly the same thing: • Day Sky and Night Sky themes: animated clouds that drift and part at your touch, stars, a shooting star • Bali theme, its golden jungle and fireflies • Ambient sounds: rain, forest, café, ocean, white noise • Blocking distracting apps and websites during focus • Smart calendar: slot reservation and suggested times • Automatic adaptation to iOS Focus modes • Weekly report • Gentle summary and activity breakdown • Unlimited timer presets • Multi-select for tasks Without Pomo Tender Pro, the timer, tasks, today's statistics, daily tip, light and dark theme, Watch app, widget and data export remain fully usable. COMPATIBILITY Live Activity: iOS 16.1 or later. Quick start widget: iOS 17 or later. This app does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. It is not a substitute for professional medical care. Always consult a doctor for any medical concerns. Questions? hello@pomotender.app
