The Pomodoro Technique (25 minutes of intense focus followed by 5 minutes of rest) is extremely helpful for more productive studying and working, but let's be honest, we all get distracted pretty easily. My attempts to use the technique looked something like this: set a timer, timer goes off, start scrolling social media or playing a game designed to keep me on for as long as possible, get distracted, and never get back to work. The problem is that most entertainment is designed to monetize your time, the most important resource you have! This free tool helps you solve that problem. It's what I wish I had when I was in school (especially during college), and so I'm putting it out there for free.
When you open Study Arcade, you're presented with an extremely simple interface to set a timer and get going. Hit Start, leave it open in the background, and get to work. It'll alert you automatically when it's time to take a break.
