Hey Product Hunt! I'm Oybek, the maker of Mellow 🌸 Mellow is a small focus timer for Mac, built around a simple idea: make it a little easier to sit down and start one thing. Name a task, choose a duration, and pick a companion to keep you company. As your session moves along, your companion changes through little stages. Finish a session, and a flower joins today's garden. A few things you can do: • Choose from seven companions: Plant, Cat, Candle, Fox, Coffee, Moon, and Cactus. • Plan up to 20 tasks, each with its own duration and breaks. • Keep the timer nearby in a floating panel, compact view, or your menu bar. • Start, pause, and control sessions with keyboard shortcuts. • Pause or end early whenever you need to. Your companion stays fine, and the flowers you've already earned stay with you. Mellow is free and designed for macOS 26 Tahoe. I'd love your feedback: does the companion make a focus session feel more inviting? What would make Mellow fit better into your daily routine?
