Description

- Do you procrastinate and spend your time mindlessly?
- have problem with focusing?
- often get distracted while trying to focus?
- maybe you are burned out because you worked too much and forget to take necessary break?
- or, maybe have an ADHD?

Session can help you with your focus problem.

Trusted daily by tens of thousands of engineer in Silicon Valley, independent studios in Madrid, writers in Netherlands, and creative worker + freelancer all over the world.

It helps you be more productive by guiding you to work in sessions, block distractions, track your time, and remind you to rest.

GET INTO HABIT OF WORKING IN TIME BLOCK
Inspired by Pomodoro technique, Session helps you block your time for focus. 25 minutes or 45 minutes is all you need to get closer to your goal

KEEP YOUR FOCUS BY BLOCKING WEBSITES AND APPS THAT DISTRACT YOU (MAC ONLY)
Session block distracting website and apps when you started a Session. It'll automatically restore your website when you are on rest / session has ended.

BLOCK SLACK TEAM
Session will automatically mute Slack team you choose when Session has started and open them up again when Session has stopped working.

DON'T FORGET TO TAKE A REST
Forcing yourself to work on long period of time is ineffective. Rest is as important as work / study. Why? Because rest is a crucial time where you:
- store what you have learned in your head, and where
- your brain solve difficult problem on the background.
Notice that you usually get a new idea and solves problem when you're on walk and shower. Or anywhere where you're away from "work".

AUTOMATE YOUR WORKFLOW (AUTOMATIC DO NOT DISTURB, PLAY MUSIC)

Imagine having no distracting notifications while working on. It's possible by turning on Do Not Disturb. What if you can turn it on when you started your Session, and disable it after Session ends—all automatically? Or maybe change bulb color, play Apple music when Session has started? Different playlist on break? It's possible with Session.

Automate it with AppleScript on MacOS and Apple Shortcut on iOS

Superb app that needs more upgrades

AlbertWilroy on

I’ve been subscribed since day one, this app is phenomenal and the sync between the devices is magical, however a subscription model in my opinion usually entails continuous improvements and updates which I didn’t observe since 3 months, the developer is very open to suggestions and very friendly, hope to support this app down its roadmap

Best pomodoro timer yet!

hsj76 on

I use the pomodoro technique for university work - depending on the task, it’s either 25 or 50 minute sessions. I love body doubling, however I don’t always feel up to it (being social and chatting to people that is!). This is where Session wins hands down: the free version allows the setting of an intention at the start of each session and self-reflection at the end 🙌🏻

perfect

jcbvek on

this is the perfect app for using the pomodoro technique. love the ability to see what you've done that day so that you can evaluate how your work is going. also love that you can write a note to yourself about what you have done in that session - i use this for time blocking and its useful to see what i did last

Frictionless experience Great support

seanaytiz on

When I used pomodoro timers in the past, I often had to combine using a timer app with a watch, pen, paper... what have you... because there would always be one feature or automation missing. Session is a focus app where pretty much every feature is covered, when it comes to studying and taking breaks with no friction. The app handles everything. On top of that, when I ran into a minor bug, I emailed the dev and got an explanation for it on the very same day, as well as letting me know when the update would fix that. I also find the notes/comments, that you can write into each session and each break, proved to be a feature I underrated over time; the ability to export my Session comments (which were me "real-time" thoughts in my most difficult moments of studying) really pays off in the long term.

Amazing timer, but overpriced for pro features.

Ddog the hog on

This is probably the best pomodoro app available, absolutely beautiful UI/UX, plenty of stats and tracking, and really flexible, not instantly forcing you to stop when your timer has ended. I would love to support this app more by upgrading to pro but there is just no way I can justify the price being charged, I feel like a lifetime purchase or a way lower subscription price would make this app a perfect 5 star.

Works exactly how I want it to

Astopy on

For me, Session has just the right mix of features. It lets me track time spent on different categories and tasks, without trying to replace my existing to-do list. The Pomodoro timer works as you'd expect, and it's nice that it's flexible – it's easy to add extra time to a session, and it keeps going when the timer runs out so it accurately logs the time spent on a task even if you don't stop on time. I also like that it has a good selection of widgets, showing things like a live timer and an overview of the week. Real time syncing between devices works well too.

I'm loving this so far!

RobRecord on

I’m absolutely loving this app so far. Recently discovering I have ADHD, I need help. I’ve been through a lot of timers and such, even positive ones, but this one is very good: - Sync in real-time between phone and mac so I can leave my desk for a break and know when I’m due back. It even has a live timer on my Lock Screen. - Notes! I can keep session notes which is VERY handy to jot down distractions or a log of what I’ve done so I can pick back up later. - a timeline / calendar integration - sessions show on your calendar, and calendar events can be used as session templates. - feature to set an intention before a session and do a few deep breaths to center. Love this! It’s been very helpful so far - if not keeping me completely focussed, it does help me when I do go off piste and bringing me back on track. Otherwise I would LITERALLY be, as I usually am, quite lost! It’s really very well designed and thought out. I can’t thank the developer enough- so here’s my 5 stars.

Both well-designed and powerful

greenseaturtles on

This has been one of my most-used apps for a while. It’s fundamentally a Pomodoro app, not one of those tedious time tracker apps. Really like it, worth subscribing.

Expensive app with good UX

Shiva1729 on

App is very expensive for a Pomodoro timer.. but it works well and has a pleasant UX.
