Hi everyone! I’m Andre — a developer with ADHD and the maker of AnyTimer. I built this app after realizing how complicated most focus and Pomodoro apps had become. Too many options. Too much setup. Too much gamification. And some literally lost track of time or skipped notifications, which is the opposite of helpful when you’re trying to stay focused. My wife (she’s a counselor) introduced me to the Pomodoro technique, and that’s where the idea for AnyTimer began. We also put together a simple, calming Spotify playlist, and since research shows that lo-fi/classical music can reduce stress and boost focus, we built it right into the app. Start a session → playlist opens → tap play. That’s it. AnyTimer works fully offline, uses no background activity, and barely touches your battery. It can also block notifications from other apps — a feature that’s been incredibly helpful for me. It’s the first time I’ve been able to actually focus, take real breaks, and avoid burning out. It helped me find balance: working full-time, studying, and still having energy for side projects. Maybe it’ll do the same for you.
