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

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".

I used to use this plain and simple pomodoro apps since I like simplicity. However, I failed to complete each session and slowly stopped using those apps as it didn't really work for me. I just found "Session" recently and I was a bit skeptical at first looking at a sophisticated UI for a pomodoro app. But I was proven wrong. Small things like specifying the intention at the beginning of each session and writing a small retrospective at the end of the session in the notes app really helps to get the best out of each session for me. And the calendar helps me visualize my day better.
The best pomodoro app for your work flow.

1)How accurately it presents the data of your daily studying hours .2)In case you forgot to start the timer you have the option to log it manually in the app .3)This is my favourite feature ,the timer even if it's set for an hour it keeps on running until i have completed my task ,this helps me a lot since in other pomodoro app i had to start another timer after an hour4)The widgets that you get for the app are also very cool .5)And the way it sinks with my devices is also very nice .
Minimalistic yet premium UI sets this Pomodoro/Focus app apart from the competition.

Littlethings like setting an intention before a session and making notes in between to seeing every part of your day organized on a calendar makes a lot of difference to keep you motivated. I've personally had some significant personal growth since I started using this app and it helps me keep track of where my time is going. Also, being a student, I'm mostly always on my Mac so it really helps to have an app that keeps an eye on what i'm doing throughout the day.
