StudyBreak: Procrastinate Less4.4.8 - App Store

StudyBreak is a study timer and app blocker that keeps you off your phone and focused on your work. Pick your study/break ratio, start the timer, and the apps that distract you stay locked until it's time for a break.

NEW: BLOCK DISTRACTING APPS
Choose the apps that pull you away (social media, games, videos) and StudyBreak blocks them automatically every time you start a study session. They unlock again when your break begins. No willpower required.

A FOCUS TIMER BUILT FOR STUDYING
- Set your own study-to-break ratio, from Pomodoro-style sprints to long deep-work blocks
- Pick up your phone mid-session and get a nudge to get back to work
- Get an alert when it's time to rest, so you don't study for hours without a break and burn out
- Studied past the timer or cut a break short? StudyBreak banks the extra break time for later

TRACK YOUR STUDY HABITS
- See how many hours you study each day and how efficiently you use your time
- Color-coded timers: green when you hit your goals, red when you don't
- Premium: reminders to start studying, plus alerts if you're falling behind on today's goal
- Premium: add study time manually or edit past sessions

PLAN AND REVIEW SMARTER
- Study planner: upload your syllabus and get a personalized study schedule built around your classes
- PDF to podcast: turn lecture notes and textbook PDFs into audio you can review on the go

WORKS WHEREVER YOU STUDY
Available on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch. StudyBreak keeps running in the background, and the widget lets you start or stop a session in a tap. With the Apple Watch app, you can track your session without touching your phone until break time.

Whether you're preparing for finals, the SAT, MCAT, bar or CPA exam, or just trying to beat procrastination, StudyBreak helps you study with focus and take breaks without guilt.
