I like the 25/5 approach (25 minute work intervals with regular 5 minute breaks after each work interval). A lot of apps for this purpose are overly-complicated, but the approach Be Focused has used is simplicity and yet clever with the red and green count down timer on the task bar. It’s definitely improved my work productivity since I began using it. If like me you struggle to keep you attention focused on a task through to completion or find yourself easily distracted, then this app is a must have. ** Integration with Focus Matrix requires the Pro version of Focus Matrix, sold separately. * Sync with iOS devices requires Be Focused Pro for iOS, sold separately. Integrate with Focus Matrix to manage tasks using urgent/important principle ** Sync data between iPhone, iPad and Mac * Ability to adjust alarm and chronometer volumes Customizable frequency of the chronometer sound Global hotkeys to start or stop the timer from any app Ability to paste a task list from other apps Customize reports for fast and easy goal tracking Estimate the number of intervals required to complete a task and track the estimation error Specify different timer settings for different tasks Number of intervals between long breaks.Customize the timer settings to maximize productivity: Create tasks, configure breaks and track your progress throughout the day, week or custom period. It’s a surprisingly effective way to retain motivation and focus. The Be Focused lets you get things done by breaking up individual tasks among discrete intervals, separated by short breaks. Staying on task seems is a real challenge for our screen-bound generation.
