Boosting focus and productivity for students

After the pandemic, students struggled with reduced focus, lower persistence, and social disconnection

Structured focus sessions

To make working sessions productive and engaging, we based the flow on the Pomodoro method — short, focused intervals followed by regular breaks to reduce burnout and improve time management.

Social aspect

Engageable allows students to create groups, share progress, and “boost” each other for support. This sense of shared work and encouragement increases motivation and builds connection.

Dynamic Island

Having a Dynamic Island for the timer is important because it significantly enhances user experience and functionality. It provides real-time updates and quick access to the timer, ensuring that users can keep track of their time without having to switch between apps constantly.

Chrome extension

Also we created an integration for Google Chrome browser that allows linking your Google Calendar to block off time for deeper, more focused work, studying, or play.
