About

Enso

Features
Read full description

Enso is a calm, minimal Pomodoro timer for iPhone β€” inspired by the Japanese ensō circle and the idea that focus should feel effortless, not noisy. One tap starts a focus session. A soft ring of ticks fills as time passes, a gentle haptic and chime let you know when it's time to rest, and the whole thing stays out of your way. No clutter, no accounts, no distractions β€” just you and the work in front of you. Keep it in view, everywhere β€’ Live Activity β€” watch the countdown on your Lock Screen without unlocking. β€’ Dynamic Island β€” glance at the time remaining right from the top of your screen. β€’ Home Screen widget β€” see your session and start or pause it with a single tap, in two sizes. Why you'll love it β€’ The Pomodoro method β€” focus sessions, short breaks, and a longer break after every cycle. β€’ Beautifully minimal β€” a single ring of ticks, clean typography, and one calm vermilion accent. β€’ Light, dark, or system β€” the app, widget and Live Activity all match your choice. β€’ Made yours β€” adjust focus, break lengths, and sessions per cycle. β€’ Gentle by design β€” an optional chime and a soft haptic when a session ends. β€’ Private β€” everything stays on your device. No account, no tracking, no data collected. Focus, the calm way.
