FocusDeck vs Pomofocus
Beyond the Pomodoro: reusable focus blocks you design once
Pomofocus runs one timer. FocusDeck lets you design a sequence of different blocks — focus, rest, practice, review — and reuse it every day.

What changes when you switch
Single-task only
Pomofocus runs one timer for one task. Real work sessions have phases — reading, coding, reviewing, resting. A single 25-minute cycle cannot model that.
FocusDeck decks hold multiple block types in sequence. Design a session with focus, rest, practice, and review blocks — each with its own duration and purpose.
No session reuse
After each Pomodoro you start over. There is no way to save a sequence and replay it tomorrow, so you manually set the same timers every day.
Save your deck once and run it any day. One tap starts your full sequence — no reconfiguration, no decision fatigue, just the routine you already designed.
No progress tracking
Pomofocus counts Pomodoros completed but that is all. No session notes, no history trends, no insight into whether your focus is actually improving.
FocusDeck tracks every session with notes, completion rates, and time trends. See how your focus patterns evolve and adjust your deck based on real data.
