What it is
pawl: the homepage
pawl is a tiny focus companion that lives in your Mac menu bar. Pull on your paw to start a focus timer, and check how much time is left at a glance. You can adjust your focus time, break time, and focus intervals to fit the way you like to work, making it more flexible than a traditional pomodoro timer. The app stays in your menu bar without opening additional windows, and provides a quiet heads-up shortly before your focus session ends. You can customize your experience by switching between eight lovable paw designs and different themes.
