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.

Session will help you stay focused

When everyone and everything is fighting for my attention, Session makes me able to focus and be more productive.

It has a nice feature set, blocks and updates my status on Slack and notifies me on my watch when the break is finished. I can view nice statistics about my week and lots of other good stuff.

Not least, it looks gorgeous and you'll be supporting an indie maker.

Great app for your productivity

Everything fights for your attention and tries to distract you. Using Session I manage to focus on the tasks I want to accomplish and be more productive.

It looks great and has a nice set of features. If you want to give pomodoro a try, and you should, give this app a chance!

This is the app for studying

I've tried several apps for an exam, and this one is the best so far. Simple in nature, intuitive in using and easy initial set-up for your goals.

It keeps a board with working periods and breaks, for later review.

Watch integration for notifications would be great.
