Apple Watch Productivity Timer

Press Like to appreciate it.

Pomadoro Timer

Over the summer of 2023, I seized the opportunity to learn SwiftUI. During this time, I discovered a lack of good Pomodoro timers for the Apple Watch, prompting me to develop one myself. I opted for a minimalistic approach and adhered closely to the Apple Human Interface Guidelines.

Pomadoro Principle

The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s. It's a simple yet effective way to improve focus and productivity by breaking work into intervals separated by short breaks. Here's how it typically works:

  1. Set Timer: Choose a task and set a timer for 25 minutes (a "Pomodoro").

  2. Work: Focus solely on the task until the timer rings.

  3. Short Break: Take a 5-minute break after each Pomodoro.

  4. Repeat: Start another Pomodoro, then take a longer break (15-30 minutes) after four Pomodoros.

This technique helps maintain focus and avoid burnout by balancing work with regular breaks. Adjust intervals as needed.

Made with Figma. Based on the Human Interface Guidelines. Explore more possibilities in watchOS 10. Full-screen content brings a new visual direction.
