Focus
Known as the Pomodoro Technique, work intervals promote productivity. With customizable intervals, such as 25 minutes working with a 10 minute break, Focus allows users to prioritize work while also allowing for interruptions to respond to messages, or watch t.v.. With a ring, users are notified when a break should start and stop. Unlike other interval apps, Focus allows each user to manually start their break/work session in the app instead of beginning on its own. The app also offers adding five minutes to a session, or skipping it as a whole. Increasing productivity can help achieve goals, while not fully cutting off leisure time.
Only available on the Apple App Store.
