Focused Work is a flexible Focus Timer that helps you structure your time effectively.
Structure keeps you fresh and productive, so you can get more work done!
A key strength of Focused Work is creating timed focus sessions that break up tasks into smaller parts.
Each task, such as studying, coding, and content writing, could be structured as;
· a 5-minute Planning stage
· two 45-minute Focused Work stages
· with a 10-minute Break stage in the middle
Every session helps you remain self-accountable by asking what will you focus on, and reminds you to maintain focus.
**Core Features**

**Focused Work Pro**
Focused Work is made by me, Michael! I believe that Focused Work's core features should be free for everyone to use, but if you want to support and help me work on the app full time, you can subscribe to Focused Work Pro to unlock these extra features.
