Pomodoro Study vs Kairos

A calmer take on the pomodoro technique: real blocks, real breaks — and the next block is always your choice. Calibrate is built for the moment before you begin. The task is big, the hour is open, and starting is the hard part. So you don't start with 25 minutes. You start with three. JUST START Swipe any to-do and you're in — three minutes with it, that's the whole deal. At the checkpoint, you decide: another block, a break, or stop here. Stopping counts. You started. REAL BLOCKS, REAL BREAKS Work in blocks that end with one honest question — how did it go? Breaks get their own clock, and coming back is a choice too. Nothing auto-starts. Nothing runs you. YOUR LOCK SCREEN DOES THE WORK The whole session lives on your Lock Screen and Apple Watch — the countdown, the check-ins, the next-block choice. Your phone stays locked. You never have to open the app. EMPTY YOUR HEAD FIRST Brain-dump every loose thing into one list for today. Spaces keep work, home and health apart, so today stays short. Every to-do gets a day — or waits, without nagging you. AN HONEST WEEK, NOT A SCORE The weekly recap shows what actually happened — facts, never grades. No streaks, no scores. Miss a day, nothing breaks. WHO IT'S FOR Students in long study sessions. ADHD brains — the app never punishes a wandered mind, it just asks kindly. Anyone who's tried blockers and streak apps and wants something gentler. Calibrate helps you notice. It never notices for you. Focus sessions, to-dos, spaces, lists and keeping track are free — all of it, unlimited. Calibrate Plus adds the long view: your weekly recap, your sharpest hours, and every day you turned up. Monthly, or one purchase that's yours for good. Privacy policy: https://usecalibrate.app/privacy.html Terms of use: https://usecalibrate.app/terms.html
