Focus & Study Timer : Snowball

AEcho

About this app

Could this be the simplest focus app in the world? That is the idea behind Snowball.

WHAT IS SNOWBALL?
Snowball is a minimalist focus and study timer that turns focused minutes into a growing snowball. It is designed for studying, reading, writing, coding, and deep work without a busy productivity dashboard.

MINIMAL BY DESIGN
The entire scene is built around just three visual elements: a snow slope, a snowball, and clouds. No scores. No rankings. No streak anxiety. Just one quiet place to begin and watch your effort grow.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
Most everyday actions use four simple directions:
• Swipe down to start focusing
• Swipe up to stop
• Swipe left or right to switch between goals

No menus to study. No complicated system to maintain. The interface gets out of the way so you can focus.

WATCH FOCUSED TIME GROW
As the focus timer runs, your snowball rolls through the winter scene. Every session adds to its size, making focused time visible and tangible.

KEEP EVERY GOAL SEPARATE
Create multiple snowballs for the things that matter to you. Keep study, deep work, reading, writing, coding, and personal projects in their own calm space.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your focus progress is stored locally on your device. Snowball has no accounts, ads, analytics, social feeds, or cross-app tracking.
