WHY FOCUS BOOSTER?
**Get focused**
Simplicity is at our core, all you need to do is focus. We take care of
the rest.
- Getting started is as simple as downloading and signing up, you will be ready to go in less than a minute.
- The app is designed to be as minimalistic but functional as possible, so you can focus on doing the important things.
**Discover productivity**
Get back to finishing your days with a sense of accomplishment;
- By focusing in short bursts with no distractions, you will whip though your to-do list
- Breaks will keep you super fresh and alert, so you eliminate burnout
- Improve the quality and quantity of your work
**The pomodoro technique**
Using a pomodoro timer will recalibrate your productivity. The best part is, the technique is simple, here is how to get started;
1. Choose a task to work on
2. Start a pomodoro session (25 minutes is the recommended length)
3. Work through the session, avoiding all distractions (it helps to turn off things that are likely to distract you, emails, other apps, or just hit airplane mode)
4. Take a 5-minute break; refresh, move, get caffeine
5. Do this three more times and you have completed your first pomodoro (name for a group of 4 sessions), well done!
**Make it yours**
While remaining very simple, we give you the ability to choose the way you work;
- Set the session and break lengths, audio and alarm to your preference
- Choose from a dark and light theme to suit your mood
**Use it everywhere**
Whether you are on your laptop, someone else's computer or on the go, we have an app for you;
- Web app: the heart of focus booster, go there to see all your timesheets and reports, export CSVs for reports or add a manual session
- Desktop app: Windows and Mac versions of the iPhone app, if you forget your mobile and are in need of a focus boost (wink)

MISCONCEPTIONS OF THE POMODORO TECHNIQUE
Worried the technique won't work for you, don't be... here is why;
- The pomodoro technique isn't for everyone - Yes it can be. It is so flexible it can be adapted to suit anyone. Use it with GTD, the Action Method, or any other todo app.
- Some interruptions are unavoidable - Maybe some, but very few, this will help you control how you use your time...call them back later.
- The rules are too rigid - Only if you let them constrain you. You can choose how long a session is, you can group similar tasks, make it yours.
- I can't use it all the time - Fine by us, but it will work when you do and that is all the reason to find the time to use it.
