Suggested Superfocus preset: Pomodoro + Todoist sync

How to run a Todoist pomodoro session

Name one outcome. “Study chapter 4” or “write the intro,” not “be productive.” Vague tasks are why people search how to focus and still open Slack.
Pick Pomodoro + Todoist sync. If starting feels heavy, cut the block in half. A finished 15-minute sprint beats a abandoned 25-minute pomodoro.
Start the Superfocus timer and optionally a cassette (lofi, rain, white noise) in the same tab. Do not open a second “study with me” video.
When it rings, stand up. The break is part of the pomodoro technique, not optional chrome. Then start the next block or stop for the day.

Keep planning next to the clock

Todoist and other lists fail when the timer lives elsewhere. Import or copy one next action into Superfocus, run the block, then mark it done. Planning without a running clock is a diary. A clock without a task is a tomato animation.

Stacking three tools: a tomato timer, Spotify, and a task app. Context switching is the product.
Skipping breaks until you crash. Cirillo’s pomodoro technique uses 5-minute pauses on purpose.
Judging the day by hours in a chair instead of finished blocks. Superfocus analytics count completed sessions, not tab time.
Forcing 25/5 when the work is a 90-minute deep-work problem — or forcing 90 minutes when you cannot start.

Why use Superfocus instead of a kitchen timer

A kitchen timer or a silent chrome pomodoro extension only answers “when does this end?” Superfocus also holds the task, ambient sound, and a record of what you actually finished. That is the gap between a tomato timer novelty and a study timer or focus timer you will reopen tomorrow.
