FocusFlow – Pomodoro & Forced Breaks for Anki

Stay focused. Take real breaks.

FocusFlow is a lightweight Pomodoro-style timer built directly into Anki Desktop. It is designed to stay out of the way while you study. No large windows, no unnecessary dashboards β€” just a small, minimal timer that helps you structure focused study sessions and actually take breaks. Features

  • Minimal floating timer inside Anki
  • Custom study duration
  • Custom break duration
  • Start / Pause / Reset controls
  • Automatic switch from Focus mode to Break mode
  • Optional forced break mode
  • Blocks Anki review during active breaks
  • Clean dark interface
  • Designed to avoid covering your cards
  • Settings are saved between sessions
  • Works directly inside Anki Desktop How it works Choose your study and break duration, then start a Focus session. For example: 45 min Focus β†’ 10 min Break When the Focus timer reaches zero, FocusFlow automatically starts your break. If Block Anki during break is enabled, card review is temporarily disabled until the break ends. Once the break is finished, you can start another Focus session whenever you're ready. Why FocusFlow? Long Anki sessions can easily turn into hours of sitting without proper breaks. FocusFlow is intentionally simple. It does not try to turn studying into another complicated productivity system. It gives you one small tool to help maintain a sustainable rhythm: Focus β†’ Break β†’ Focus β†’ Break Custom durations You are not limited to classic 25/5 Pomodoro sessions. Use whatever works for you:
  • 25 / 5
  • 30 / 5
  • 45 / 10
  • 60 / 15
  • or your own custom setup Designed for Anki FocusFlow was designed specifically to stay unobtrusive while reviewing cards. The timer sits in a compact corner widget and keeps the main study area clear. Compatibility FocusFlow is designed for Anki Desktop on:
