What it is
My Deep Work is a simple, free tool for running focused work sessions — either as a single deep work block or as a Pomodoro cycle. You set a goal, tag what you're working on, start the timer, and get out of your own way. Everything else — the stats, the habits, the streaks — is there to help you show up again tomorrow.
Why it exists
Most productivity apps add noise. This one tries to remove it. There are no ads in your face, no gamified nonsense, and no data selling. Just a big timer, a clear goal, and an honest record of the hours you put in. The interface deliberately fades away while you work so nothing competes with the task in front of you.
What you can track
- Deep work and Pomodoro focus sessions, with goals, tags, ratings and notes
- Weekly, monthly and yearly focus goals with progress and an activity chart
- Which projects you spend your focus on, via a tag breakdown
- Daily habits with current and longest streaks
The philosophy
“Deep work” describes the ability to focus without distraction on a cognitively demanding task. It's a skill, and like any skill it improves with deliberate practice. This app is just a practice ground. For a deeper dive, read the Deep Work Guide or browse our focus tips.
