About this app

Work for as long as it feels right and your break adapts. FlowTime is a pomodoro timer for study and productivity: three focus modes, no ads and no account.

THREE WAYS TO FOCUS
Pomodoro: fixed blocks of work and rest, so you can start without thinking.
FlowTime: no countdown while you work; when you stop, your break comes from how long you worked. When you are in the zone, nothing cuts you off.
Percentage: your break is the percentage you choose of the time you worked.
Every mode's times are yours to adjust.

KEEPS COUNTING WHEN YOU CLOSE THE APP
The timer runs on the clock, not on the screen. A notification shows the timer with buttons to pause and stop, and you get an alert at the end of each phase even if the app is closed.

WITHOUT OPENING THE APP
A home screen widget and a quick settings tile: start and stop a session right from there.

TODAY'S TASKS
Write down what you want to get done today. Whatever you don't finish shows up the next day, so nothing gets lost. Pick a task for each session and, at the break, the app asks whether you finished it.

TAGS
Study, work, reading, languages: tag your sessions and see where your time goes.

STREAK, GOAL AND STATS
Set a daily goal, keep your streak and level up. See your day, week and month: total time, sessions, averages and your best day.

SOUNDS TO FOCUS
Rain, fire, waves, thunder, birds, heat, a coffee shop, meditation, wind, and brown, pink and white noise, generated on your phone. Mix them, save your mixes and set a timer so they fade out on their own.

MADE YOURS
Dark mode, your wallpaper colors and 11 themes. An optional daily reminder, plus automatic backup and backup to a file. In English, Spanish, German, Italian, Russian and Hindi.

FREE, NO ADS
All three modes, the notification, the widget, the quick settings tile, up to 15 pending tasks, 4 tags, all 12 sounds with 3 saved mixes, your streak, your goal, stats for today, the week and the month, and backups. No ads, no account, no trial.

PRO, ONE PAYMENT
Advanced stats (the whole year, comparison with the previous period, by hour, by mode, by tag and the tasks you spent the most time on) and CSV export; unlimited tags, pending tasks and mixes; 6 new sounds, 6 new themes and 6 new icons; and automatic Do Not Disturb while you work. One payment, yours forever: not a subscription.

YOUR DATA IS YOURS
Everything stays on your phone. No sign-up and no tracking.

Ratings and reviews

it's really simple but I think it's a really great start. maybe have a dark mode instead of just a color scale. the audio button also seems to get in the way on the pixel 9 pro hanging out on the top? The only other thing I would ask for is to give a category option (cleaning, studying, working, etc). that the user can fill in. I really do like the sound options though and I think you're on to something there. maybe let people save a few presets of the sound that they like so its easier.

I am PSYCHED for a Flowtime technique app. I would like more contrast in some of the themes (text is hard to read), or an option to automatically calculate a defined percentage of time for a break (ie 33% of Time Worked is converted into Break Time), but the custome range options will suit me well otherwise. It does what it says on the tin, it's exactly the kind of app I was looking for.

It would've been a great app if it weren't for the fact that the clock doesn't run in the background! So when you come back after *hours* of work, it says you only did minutes of it. Edit: Well, I find it strange to not have it for background use. I wish it was said explicitly that it was not in background use unless if I'm mistaken and it was said somewhere.
