Flow Timer
About the Flow Timer
Flow states rarely appear in five-minute slices. This Flow Timer targets ninety-minute immersive sessions for coders, designers, and researchers who need uninterrupted context loaded in RAM. Use it when switching cost is high: refactoring a module, storyboarding a video, or reading a dense paper series. The longer block discourages fake productivity breaks that are really avoidance.
How to use it
- Open the Flow Timer page and review default work and break lengths for this profile.
- Name the current task in the task field so sessions stay searchable in your notes.
- Choose Work, Short Break, or Long Break, then start the first focus phase.
- Let the timer advance phases automatically or switch manually between rounds.
- Use fullscreen and sound alerts so breaks start even when you are in flow.
Good to know
A focus timer does not finish the work for you. Pick one task before you start, and keep the tab open so the break actually arrives on time.
