Can't get started? Vitamin-R turns daunting work into short, single-minded time slices, so you stop procrastinating and build momentum one focused burst at a time. It's a complete focus method for your Mac, not just another timer.
Rated 4.5 out of 5 by Macworld. A complete focus method for your Mac, not just another timer.
For over 15 years, Vitamin-R has helped people quiet the mental noise and do their best work. Instead of staring down an overwhelming task, you commit to one small objective, start a short timer, and work distraction-free until it rings. Short bursts stay below the radar of the fight-or-flight response that fuels procrastination, so getting started feels easy.
HOW IT WORKS
• Name a single objective for the slice. Clarity beats overwhelm.
• Choose your rhythm: classic Pomodoro, or your own durations and breaks.
• Work in focused, distraction-free bursts, then take real breaks to recharge.
• Review your log and watch both your focused hours and your momentum grow.
MORE THAN A TIMER
• Stay-on-task prompts and a place to park intrusive thoughts, so distractions don't derail you.
• Focus-boosting soundscapes and a built-in noise machine to block out the world.
• A detailed logbook and analytics that turn effort into visible progress.
• Gentle, customizable notifications that keep you on track without nagging.
FITS HOW YOU ALREADY WORK

• Many people with ADHD find Vitamin-R's structure invaluable for holding focus.
SIMPLE, FAIR PRICING
