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".

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.

I started using Session about two years ago during my GCSEs. Despite trying various websites, methods, and apps, nothing held my interest for more than a week. I stumbled upon the app by chance, but I'm grateful I did. Its customizable interface for timers and breaks, integrated calendar, and wide selection of background sounds have consistently kept me engaged from GCSEs through A-Levels to my current undergraduate studies. It's the perfect tool for students.
Best I could find

I had been looking for a free Pomodoro app for so long and after trying your app, I couldn't have been more happy.It has all the features I was looking for. The menu bar icon on the Mac is beey handy. The calendar sync helps me see my schedule and writing notes helps me better my sessions.
Perfect!!!
