iPhone
A Pomodoro timer where a tiny animal companion curls up beside you during each break. Focus deeply, rest gently. No ads, no accounts, no data leaves your phone.
Pet Pause is a quiet Pomodoro timer for people who like working in focused blocks — and who could use a little company on their breaks.
Start a focus session. While the timer counts down on your Dynamic Island and lock screen, the app stays out of your way. When the session ends, a small animal companion slides into view and stays with you through your break.
That's the whole app.
— FROM THE PET GATEKEEPER FAMILY —
Pet Pause is the mobile companion to Pet Gatekeeper, the browser extension that lets cats and dogs wander across your screen between tabs. Same cozy cast — now on your iPhone, paired with a focus timer. If you came here from Cat Gatekeeper or Dog Gatekeeper, hi.
— FEATURES —
• Customizable focus (1–90 min) and break (1–60 min) durations
• Live Activity on the Dynamic Island + lock screen — countdown ring + MM:SS, the same way Apple's Timer works
• End-of-session notifications — tap to jump straight into the next phase
• A small cast of cute pet companions, more on the way
• Light and dark themes, follows system automatically
• Bilingual: English and 简体中文
— PRIVACY —
Pet Pause does not collect anything. No analytics, no accounts, no ads, no third-party SDKs that phone home. Everything you set — your durations, your pet, your theme — stays on your iPhone. Read our full policy at:
