Focus Timer

Deep work sessions with built-in audio and streak tracking

∞Focus sessions logged

Xenith's Focus Timer helps you enter deep work states using timed sessions, ambient audio, and session logging — all in a distraction-free interface. Track every minute of focused work across your day.

Key Benefits

Flexible session lengths

Set custom focus durations from 5 minutes to 4 hours. Whether you work in 25-minute sprints or 90-minute deep blocks, Xenith adapts to your rhythm.

Ambient audio modes

Choose from focus-tuned soundscapes — brown noise, rain, lo-fi, or silence. Audio plays inside the timer so you never lose your flow switching tabs.

Automatic session logging

Every completed session is automatically recorded with duration, timestamp, and tags. Your focus history builds an accurate picture of when and how much you work.

Session streak tracking

Build a daily focus streak that motivates consistency over intensity. Xenith shows your streak alongside a weekly focus-minutes chart.

Navigate to /app/focus from the sidebar. No setup required — the timer is ready immediately.

3
Press Start and enter focus mode
The timer counts down in full view. A subtle progress ring keeps you anchored. Notifications are blocked in focus mode.

When the timer ends, the session is auto-logged to your focus history. You'll see your total focused minutes for the day update in real time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Xenith's Focus Timer based on the Pomodoro technique?+

Xenith supports Pomodoro-style 25/5 splits but is not limited to them. You can configure any session length you prefer — many users prefer longer 90-minute deep work blocks aligned with ultradian rhythms.

Does the focus timer work offline?+

The timer itself runs entirely in your browser and continues counting even if you lose connectivity. Session data syncs to your account when the connection is restored.

Can I track focus sessions without logging in?+

You need a Xenith account to save and track sessions over time. Xenith is currently free during its beta — accounts are free with no credit card required.

What ambient audio options are available?+

Xenith offers several built-in focus audio modes including brown noise (which research shows improves concentration), rain sounds, and a lo-fi music stream. You can also run sessions in silence.
