Focus Keeper review

Focus Keeper sticks closely to the original pomodoro method: 25-minute focus sessions, 5-minute short breaks and a longer break after 4 sessions, with the next session starting automatically. You can change the length of sessions and breaks, and charts show your focus time and work patterns over time. The vendor, PIXO Inc., says sessions and tasks are saved and available from any device, and the timer runs on iOS, Android and the web. The app is free to download, and the US App Store lists Focus Keeper Pro subscriptions starting at $3.99 a month, alongside several yearly and one-time options up to $199.99, which makes the pricing harder to read than rivals. The vendor does not describe app blocking or a task manager, so it is a timer and a tracker, not a planner. For beginners who want to learn the method with nothing else in the way, it is easy to start, but Flow and Forest offer more for similar or lower prices.
