Key features
Focus Keeper
- Pomodoro timer
- Runs the classic cycle of 25-minute focus sessions and 5-minute breaks, with a longer break after four sessions, and can start the next session automatically.
- Custom session lengths
- The length of focus sessions, short breaks and long breaks can each be changed to fit your own way of working.
- Charts of focus time
- Work sessions are logged automatically, and charts show focus time and work patterns so you can spot trends.
- Tasks alongside the timer
- Tasks are kept with the timer and its analytics, so sessions can be tied to what you are working on.
- History saved to an account
- Focus sessions and tasks are saved automatically, and the history can be opened from any device.
- Web, phone and watch
- A timer runs in the browser at focuskeeper.co, with apps for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Android.
Goodtime
- Timer profiles
- Strict countdown timers suit techniques such as Pomodoro, with longer breaks after several sessions. An open-ended count-up mode builds a break budget as you work.
- Swipe controls
- The timer is paused, skipped or extended with swipe gestures on a plain screen, and sessions can be set to start automatically.
- Colored labels
- Labels organize sessions by task, each with its own timer settings, and can be archived when finished. Labels are a premium feature.
- Statistics
- Statistics total your focus time, with a configurable start of day and week. Premium adds views by label, notes and manual editing of sessions, including ones done offline.
- Backup and export
- Premium includes automatic local backups, manual export and import for moving to another device, and CSV or JSON export. Optional sync uses your own Google Drive or iCloud.
- Do Not Disturb and alerts
- Do Not Disturb mode can switch on while the timer runs. Premium alerts add a screen flash, the torch and persistent notifications.
