Focus timer

Deep work, one focus session at a time

Start a Pomodoro-style focus session on any task. Planzer.io keeps the task’s notes and subtasks in view, lets you know when time is up and reminds you to take a break.

Planzer.io focus timer running on a task with its subtasks

Focus sessions

Pick a length and start focusing

Choose 15, 25, 45 or 60 minutes, or set your own length, and link the session to a task. Pause when you need to, add five more minutes when you’re in the zone, or finish early with “I’m done”. Still going at 00:00? The timer keeps counting in overtime.

Breaks

Built-in breaks so you don’t burn out

When a session ends, take a short break — or skip it. Set your own break lengths, get a longer break after every few sessions, and let the next one start automatically if you like.

Time tracking

Pair focus with time tracking

Start the timer on the task you’re working on and compare estimated and actual time in Analytics. Task timers show how far past the estimate you are. On desktop, the running timer lives in your menu bar or system tray, and idle time is stopped automatically.

Timer on any task or subtask

Idle auto-stop from 5 minutes to 4 hours

Menu bar timer on macOS, tray timer on Windows and Linux

Timebox alerts (phone apps): when a planned task starts, Planzer notifies you, and you can start the timer right from the notification
