A to-do list with no hours in it
Twelve tasks, one evening. The list never says that is impossible — it just carries the leftovers to tomorrow, and the day after.
Fixed. Tasks go into real time blocks. When the day is full, the app says so.

Find out where your hours actually went
Most timers only count down. Task & Timer connects the timer to a plan — block real hours, focus against them, and see at the end of the day what you meant to do next to what you did.

Why another timer
The four ways a study day quietly disappears
Not a discipline problem. A measurement problem — you cannot fix what you never see.
The timer that stops when you look away
Switch apps to check one message and the countdown quietly dies. You come back twenty minutes later with nothing recorded.
Fixed. Exact alarms fire at the right moment whether or not the app is open.
"I studied all day" — did you?
Without a record, the feeling of a long day and the fact of a long day are the same thing. They usually are not.
Fixed. Planned against actual, per subject, per day — in numbers, not impressions.
One subject eats the week
You keep returning to the subject you enjoy. The one you are weakest at gets whatever is left, which is usually nothing.
Fixed. Weekly target per subject, and the app tells you which one is falling behind.
Inside the app
Plan it, run it, then look at what happened
Fifteen things the app does. Search to find one.
Focus sessions
Start a block, and the app holds you to it. Deep Focus makes leaving deliberate rather than accidental — you exit on purpose, not by drifting.
Alarms that actually fire
Sessions use exact alarms, so the end of a block reaches you even when the app is in the background and the phone is in your bag.
Overtime, counted honestly
Ran past the block because it was going well? The extra time is recorded as overtime rather than silently folded into the plan.
A planner that pushes back
Blocks cannot overlap, and when there is no study time left in the day the app says so instead of accepting a plan that was never going to happen.
Tasks and a backlog
Anything that does not fit today stays in the backlog rather than disappearing. Nothing is quietly dropped to make the day look finished.
Subjects with weekly targets
Set the hours each subject deserves in a week. The app tracks you against it and flags when one is on target, under, or exceeding.
Planned versus actual
The number most apps never show you: how long you thought a task would take, against how long it took. Estimation accuracy improves once you can see it.
Where the week went
A focus breakdown and a subject breakdown, so a lopsided week is visible on the day it happens rather than the night before an exam.
A daily review
Close the day with what worked and what did not — including a note to your future self, which is the part you actually read back a month later.
Goals
Something bigger than today to point the blocks at, so a week of focus sessions adds up to a direction instead of a pile of minutes.
Quick focus
No task, no planning — just start. Quick sessions still appear in your history and analytics, so a spontaneous hour is not lost from the record.
Stopwatch and study watch
For work that does not fit a countdown. Time counts up while you go, and still lands in the same history as everything else.
Fullscreen clock
Prop the phone on the desk and the remaining time is readable from across the room. No unlocking to check how long is left.
Breaks that take themselves
Default focus and break lengths, auto-start the break, auto-start the next session, break reminders — set once, then stop deciding.
Delete everything, for real
One option in Settings permanently removes your tasks, sessions, goals and the rest. No form to fill, no email to send, no waiting.
Nothing matched that. Try focus, planner, subject or review.
A day, laid out
This is what "planned" means here
Not a list. Actual hours, which can run out — and do.

Getting going
Five minutes to set up, then it runs
1
Install and sign in
Free from Google Play. Create an account so your history follows you, and confirm your email.
2
Quick setup
Tell the app your usual study hours and default focus and break lengths. Everything after this is adjustable.
3
Add your subjects
Create each subject and give it a weekly target. That target is what the analytics later measure you against.
4
Block out today
Drop tasks into real time slots. The planner refuses overlaps and tells you when the day is full.
5
Focus, then review
Run the blocks. At the end of the day, look at planned against actual and leave a note to your future self.
Your data
A study log is personal
What you studied, when you gave up, and what you wrote in a review are not things to sell.
No ads in the app
Nothing is placed between you and the timer, and nothing about your study habits is sold to an advertiser.
Your account, your history
Sessions, tasks and goals sync to your login, so changing phones does not mean starting the record again.
Deletion in the app itself
Settings has a delete option that permanently removes your tasks, sessions, goals and account data. You do not have to ask anyone.
Notifications you control
Break reminders and the daily-review nudge are settings, not defaults you have to endure. Turn any of them off.
Before you install
Straight answers
Is it free?
Yes — free to install from Google Play, with no ads inside it.
How is this different from a pomodoro timer?
A pomodoro timer counts down and forgets. Task & Timer connects the countdown to a plan: you block real hours, focus against them, and afterwards see planned against actual — including how accurate your own estimates were. The timer is the smallest part of it.
Will the alarm ring if I leave the app?
Yes. Sessions use exact alarms, so the end of a block fires at the right moment even with the app in the background. The app asks for notification permission on first run — that is what it is for.
Can I plan more than fits in a day?
The planner will not let you. Blocks cannot overlap, and when the day is full it says so rather than accepting an impossible plan. Whatever does not fit stays in the backlog, where you can see it.
Does it track study subject by subject?
Yes. Create subjects, give each a weekly target, and the analytics show a subject breakdown along with whether you are on target, under it, or exceeding it.
Can I delete my account and everything in it?
Yes. Settings has a delete option that permanently removes your tasks, sessions, goals and account data. It is in the app, so you never have to write to anyone to be forgotten.
Stop guessing where the day went
Install it tonight, plan tomorrow, and by the end of the week you will know something about yourself that you were only estimating before.
