About this app

Bring structure to your workflow by utilising time blocking technique.


Time blocking is an effective strategy for using time wisely and achieving greater results. Blocking out time for specific activities allows you to focus on one task at a time, limit distractions and procrastination.


It's really simple to use:


1. Define your tasks at hand, make a task list.

2. Define a block of time during which you will eliminate all distractions and give all your focus to your tasks. Start the timer and work.

3. Take frequent breaks. Regular breaks are conducive to greater productivity and concentration. During these breaks take a breath of fresh air, do some push-ups, stretch or anything else that helps you to restore your power. Your body will thank you.

4. Repeat this work/break cycle and take a longer breaks when you feel you need to.


Daily goal setting, minimalistic design beautiful color themes, notifications and more.

Ratings and reviews

It's nice when it works, but it's glitchy. sometimes the alert doesn't go off. Sometimes the timer just starts going into negative numbers instead of stopping. sometimes it does the long break when it's supposed to be doing a short one. Otherwise, when it's working, it's great for my productivity, it's simple to use, and there are no annoying pop ups.

This is a great app, I very much recommend. But I wish it weren't so hard to find a timer that didn't have a persistent notification. I don't need a notification the entire time any timer is running. I need reminders only. Wish these two different types of notifications weren't grouped so I could toggle for what I actually need. Edited: After using it's okay, it has a very quiet sound for alarm or notification that I can't change so I miss the notification. Looking around again...

The idea is great. the app helped me stay productive and organized, that is, when it worked. Unfortunately it's full of bugs. 60% of the time it "forgets" to notify me, and sometimes it counts down past 0 (I noticed that on short breaks. if the app is open and the screen is on, after it reaches 0, it starts counting into negative time instead of stopping and notifying me.) This app deserves a 5 star rating if it wasn't for those bugs.
