Pomodoro done right
Everything in one calm place

Four small habits that change your day.

No noise, no guilt-trips. Just gentle structure that fits between your commits.

Focus timer

Deep work, in measured waves.

A Pomodoro rhythm built for engineers. Start a session, name your task, and let ByteBreak count you down to a well-earned break — work and rest auto-alternate so you never grind past your limit.

  • Custom 15 / 25 / 50-minute intervals
  • Auto-scheduled breaks & session tracking
  • Earns XP toward your level & streak

Hydration

Sip by sip, stay sharp.

Mild dehydration quietly tanks your focus. ByteBreak tracks every glass with a satisfying tap, learns your rhythm, and nudges you toward your daily goal — without being annoying about it.

  • One-tap logging — 100ml to 750ml
  • Goal ring, daily reset, gentle reminders
  • Home-screen widget & ByteTips
Hydration screen
Desk exercises

Unknot your neck between builds.

A library of guided micro-stretches for the parts of you that take the hit — neck, wrists, eyes, back. Each one is a minute or two, with clear steps and an XP reward for showing up.

  • 40+ guided stretches by category
  • Step-by-step, difficulty-rated
  • 20-20-20 eye rest & breathing

Stats & streaks

Watch your rhythm take shape.

Every focused session, glass of water and stretch rolls up into a clean weekly picture. Build streaks, climb levels, and unlock badges that celebrate consistency — not crunch.

  • Daily & weekly focus charts
  • Streaks, levels & 12 badges to earn
  • All on-device — your data stays yours
