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

Easily the best focus timer app I've used

I can't think of anything more I'd want from a focus timer app to help with my productivity. The times are customizable, the app alerts you when your break or focus time is up but doesn't transition to the next phase until you say you're done. I never thought I'd care to take notes about what I'm up to in a given focus session but the app makes it so easy to do that I've gotten in the habit of it. With the paid version, this makes it so easy to reflect back on where my time is going.

The timer I’ve been looking for - so much functionality

I only just got this today, but I’ve done 3 pom sessions and Session keeps track. Saw it on a list of Pomodoro timer apps as a pricey option, but it’s so worth the small subscription price for all the customization and record-keeping functionality. As a busy mom with ADHD, it’s not just a timer, I also get records of what I do. Set a timer for cleaning, planning, writing, reading, knitting, napping - whatever *you* type in to the color-coded categories. How much time do I spend tidying up each week? Now I have a way to know!

Got me over my writing block!

I've tried so many timer/productivity apps throughout out my Ph.D. career, but this one is absolutely the best! It actually helped me get over my writing block by scheduling a 25 minute session everday. I love that it is easy to see how many hours I have worked in comparison to the past few days. It's a great motivator! HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Best Pomodoro App

This app is fantastic and is the only app that replaces my old pomodoro app. I have looked through so many apps over the years and hate subscriptions but this is one of the very few that is well worth it to me. The developer is responsive and has put a ton of work into this one and it shows.

Best app ever

This is the first time I leave review of any app and I absolutely love session! The only thing I want the app improve is that I wanna personalize times of deep breath to do before every session. Otherwise, all good!

Amazing!!!

I've had issues for years with task starting and sticking with it when it comes to studying for university exams. This seems to be doing the impossible, not only it motivates me but helps me stick to the session. Helps give me the feeling that I'm in charge of my time, organizing it, pushing the button when I'm ready to start... And the app is absolutely beautiful and follows the Apple design language.
