Focus Timer runs the Pomodoro cycle and nothing else. Twenty-five minutes of work, a short break, and a long one when you have earned it. Buy it once. No ads, no subscription, no account. Ever. WHY THIS ONE Free Pomodoro apps interrupt the break with a video ad, or lock the statistics behind a monthly plan. That is the exact moment you needed the app to stay out of the way. This one costs a dollar, once, and shows you everything. THE CYCLE, YOUR WAY • Focus from 5 to 90 minutes • Short and long breaks, both adjustable • Choose how many sessions come before the long break • Start breaks automatically, or decide each time • Skip a phase when the meeting runs over THE SCREEN STAYS OUT OF THE WAY • One dial, one number, nothing else • Dots show where you are in the cycle • A different colour for work and for rest, so a glance is enough • A sound at the end of each phase, which you can turn off SEE THAT IT ADDS UP • Minutes focused today and this week • Your streak of consecutive days • A seven-day chart • Your best day of the week, called out • Every session kept, on the device MADE THE RIGHT WAY • Works completely offline, even in airplane mode • No data collected, no tracking, no analytics • No permissions requested • Full dark mode, VoiceOver and Dynamic Type • iPhone and iPad The timer keeps counting correctly even if you leave the app — the time comes from the clock, not from a countdown that pauses.
