The Pomodoro Timer That Actually Blocks Your Apps
The Pomodoro technique works in 25-minute focus blocks separated by 5-minute breaks. SupaFocus is a Pomodoro timer for iPhone that also blocks your distracting apps and websites during each focus block — so the technique is enforced by iOS, not by willpower.
Why most Pomodoro apps don't change anything
A normal Pomodoro app is just a countdown. It asks you to focus for 25 minutes while the most distracting device ever built sits unlocked next to you. The technique is sound — the enforcement is missing.
SupaFocus closes that gap: when a Pomodoro block starts, your chosen apps and websites are blocked at the system level until the break. During breaks, they unlock. When the next block starts, they lock again — automatically.
How the Pomodoro technique works
- Pick one task.
- Focus for 25 minutes (one “pomodoro”).
- Take a 5-minute break.
- After 4 pomodoros, take a longer break.
The rhythm prevents burnout and makes big tasks feel startable. Pro users can customize work and break durations (50/10, 90/15, or anything else).
