FocusKit - Pomodoro Timer

FocusKit is LIVE on the App Store 🎉 tryfocuskit.com

"It is not that we have a short time to live, but that we waste a lot of it." - Seneca

You have all the tools you need. The only thing you have to defend is your attention.

Me at minute 4 of a Pomodoro: "I should reorganize my desk first."

Created a fresh look for the @focuskitapp website. It's already live and deployed to Vercel 🙌

By popular demand: Added a landscape mode for @focuskitapp 🙏

Asked the Open AI image generation to come up with a Mac version of @focuskitapp and I really like it. I think I will build it, would love to have a Mac version. It would perfectly fit my vision of building the best native focus timer integration!

The trick isn't focusing for hours. It's focusing for 25 minutes, then trusting yourself to come back.

Discipline is choosing what you want most over what you want now. A 25-minute timer just makes the choice smaller.

You don't need to feel motivated. You need to start a 25-minute timer.

The next @focuskitapp update will include support for Danish, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Polish, and Portuguese.

Put your next Pomodoro on the calendar like a meeting. Future-you respects calendar invites more than "I'll get to it later."

Things that take 5 minutes: a Pomodoro break. Things that don't take 5 minutes: a "quick" check of social media during a Pomodoro break.

Playing around with some background patterns for @focuskitapp. Could be a nice addition and make the app more interesting design-wise 🤔

Bad advice: just power through. Better advice: put on noise-cancelling headphones, even with no music.

You don't have to outwork everyone. You just have to outfocus your past self.

The new OpenAI image gen is pretty cool for making marketing material. It extracted FocusKit's home screen widgets from a raw screenshot and put them in a cool backdrop with some highlighting 👌

Finally shipped Home Screen Widget support for @focuskitapp! Now available on the App Store! 🙌 I am really proud of this app, although it doesn't get as much downloads/revenue as HabitKit of course. Still, really happy with it!

Making good progress on the @focuskitapp Intents / Shortcuts integration. Soon you’ll be able to control your entire focus session cycle with Shortcuts or Siri.

Back from vacation: finally found time to finish the home screen widgets for @focuskitapp, and I’ve handed them in for review 🙌

Started working on a big new feature update for @focuskitapp: Home Screen widgets, one of the most requested features!
