Endura is the study app that makes focus feel like something worth fighting for. Set your timer, watch your egg come alive on screen, and stay in the app — because the moment you try to leave, Endura reminds you: your egg won’t survive without you. When time’s up, crack it open. Inside is a rare, real-world endangered animal, released into your personal sanctuary to roam, rest, and grow your collection. Features: ∙ STUDY TIMER — Choose your subject, set a timer, and focus. Our distraction-free timer keeps you motivated with gentle reminders — leave early and your egg might not make it. ∙ HATCH ENDANGERED ANIMALS — Every completed study session hatches a new endangered species — from Amur Leopards to Pangolins. Nickname them, learn about their conservation status, and build your sanctuary. ∙ PERSONALISE YOUR SANCTUARY — spend Eco-Credits on accessories and decorations (yes, your panda can wear a party hat) ∙ PROTECT REAL WILDLIFE — Donate directly to WWF conservation projects from inside the app. 100% of donations go to protecting habitats and endangered species worldwide. ∙ Progress Tracking — weekly, monthly, and subject-by-subject breakdowns with visual charts ∙ Global Leaderboards — compete with friends, classmates, and students worldwide ∙ Animal Study Tips Feed — scroll through unconventional, actually useful, research-backed study tips delivered by your animals ∙ To-Do Lists & Badges — stay organised and get rewarded for every milestone Endura took what makes social media impossible to put down — streaks, leaderboards, collections, social comparison — and redirected it somewhere that actually matters. Built by a 16-year-old IB student who believes her generation can truly change the course for endangered species. Endura is youth-led, free to use, and designed to make every study session count.

Vibr is a Pomodoro timer for vibe coders, developers and PMs who jump between projects all day. It lives in your menu bar. No giant window stealing your screen, no browser tab to lose. Just a clean countdown that tells you when to focus and when to breathe. — THE VIBE — Built around one principle: productivity tools should respect that you already have 12 windows open. Terminal-inspired dark UI, JetBrains Mono everywhere, signal-only orange. Minimal by design. — HOW IT WORKS — 1. Pick 2-3 tasks for your next 25-minute focus session 2. Hit Start Vibr. The timer moves to the menu bar. 3. Work. The countdown is there if you need to glance. 4. Bell rings. Take a 5-minute break. 5. Repeat. Stack pomos. End the day with real stats. — FEATURES — • Menu bar timer that ticks even with the window closed • Tasks organized by Project as tags (no hierarchy, no kanban) • Today list for daily focus plus persistent To Do for everything else • Move tasks between To Do, Today and Done with one click • Search across all tasks by title • Rich text descriptions per task: bold, italic, underline, links, lists • Paste screenshots directly into a task description • Detach any task into a resizable standalone window • Repeat task: recreates an open copy automatically when you complete it • Quick links per task: paste a GitHub PR URL, click to open • Custom Pomodoro durations (5 to 90 min focus, 1 to 30 min break) • Long break every Nth pomo (default 4), configurable • Sound notifications at focus and break end • End of Day report: time per project, pomos done, carryover tasks • Native Apple performance, around 4 MB on disk • Light and dark appearance respected • 10 languages, auto-detected from system • Apple Watch companion: glance at the timer on your wrist — SYNC — Tasks, projects and pomos sync between your devices via iCloud. Private, encrypted, no third-party servers. Your identity is your Apple ID. No signup, no password. — PRIVACY — Your data stays on your device and in your iCloud. We don't have analytics tracking individual users. We don't have an ad SDK. We don't see your tasks. Period. — BUILT FOR — • Developers shipping multiple side projects • Designers context-switching between client work • Indie hackers running a portfolio of bets • Anyone who wants to feel the focus without configuring 47 fields — WHAT IT'S NOT — Not a task manager replacing Things or Todoist. Not a Kanban board. Not collaborative. Not a time-tracking SaaS. It's a Pomodoro timer that respects your aesthetic and gets out of the way. Built by a vibe coder, for vibe coders.
