Try Flow State TimerWhy Most Timers Kill Flow State
❌ Forced Breaks Destroy Focus
You're deeply focused, making progress, then the timer forces a break. It takes 15-20 minutes to get back into flow.
❌ Rigid Timing Ignores Your Brain
Some days you need 20 minutes, other days 60. Fixed intervals don't adapt to your energy or task complexity.
❌ Interruptions Waste Momentum
Flow state is precious. Research shows each interruption can cost up to 23 minutes of productivity.

The Science of Flow State
Why Flow State Matters
Flow state is the optimal state of consciousness where we feel our best and perform our best. Research by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi shows that flow occurs when challenge meets skill - and uninterrupted focus is key.
Traditional Pomodoro timers were designed for factory work, not knowledge work. They optimize for predictable output at the cost of creative breakthrough. Our flow state timer optimizes for your best work, even when it doesn't fit a 25-minute box.
