Pomodoro
Focused sprints.
Work in timed sessions with short breaks between — and a long one when you've earned it. Adjust every duration, or let a preset drive.
Three ways to focus. One honest record of where your time went.
A focus timer for iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch. No account, no ads, no tracking — your sessions stay yours.
Three ways to focus
Free Roam
Just start.
An open-ended timer that counts up while you work. End it when you're done; Quartz keeps the honest total.
Flowmodoro
ProFlow first, break after.
Work as long as your focus lasts. When you stop, Quartz sizes your break to how long you flowed — one minute of break for every five of work.
Everywhere you work
One purchase covers iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch.
Apple Watch
Start any mode from the wrist, and pause, resume, skip or finish what's running. Count-up modes show a live face, and you can switch modes with a two-tap confirm.
Mac menu bar
A mode-aware popover that starts all three modes, ends the one that is running, and offers your earned break inline. Turn on Open at Login and it is always there.
Widgets
Keep a countdown session in view: Home Screen widgets in three sizes on iPhone, and a watch face complication or Smart Stack card on Apple Watch.
Lock Screen
Countdown sessions run as a Live Activity, so the time left is on your Lock Screen without opening the app.
Focus Filters
Add Quartz as a Focus Filter and turning that Focus on sets your session length, ready for you to start.
Shortcuts and Siri
App Intents let you start a session by voice, or wire one into any shortcut or automation you like.
iCloud sync
Your sessions sync through your own private iCloud database. Sync has a per-device switch on iPhone, iPad and Mac, and takes effect the next time you open Quartz.
Your sessions stay yours
No account. No ads. No tracking — ever. Your sessions live on your devices and in your own private iCloud. You can turn sync off per device in Settings.
No account
There is no sign-up and no log-in. Quartz has no idea who you are, because it never asks.
No ads
No ad network, no sponsored anything. The app has no way to serve an ad.
No tracking — ever
No analytics, and not one third-party SDK. Quartz ships with zero external dependencies and makes no network calls of its own.
Your own private iCloud
Sessions live on your devices and mirror to your personal private CloudKit database. There is no server the developer can read.
Sync is optional
Turn sync off per device in Settings and that device keeps everything locally instead. Your existing data stays put.
Free is a real product
Pomodoro and Free Roam are unlimited and free — the full timer, tasks, history and your core focus stats. No trial clock on them, ever.
Quartz Pro adds Flowmodoro, Insights, custom presets, sequences and four more themes, from $24.99 a year.
Final price set by the App Store in your region.
