What makes Satu
different

One task at a time

Keep your current task front and center right from the menubar, along with how long you've been focused. No lists, no overwhelm.

How it works

01

Type your task

Write what you're working on (up to 44 characters). Or skip it and start a blank session to just track time.

02

Start focusing

A running timer appears in your menubar showing how long you've been at it. Pause or stop anytime.

03

Rest when nudged

Satu gently reminds you to take a break — via notification or a full screen block. You set the interval.

Questions

How do I start a focus session? +
Type your task (up to 44 characters) to keep it simple. Press Enter or hit Start. A running timer appears in your menubar showing how long you've been focused. Use Pomodoro style or set your own focus interval so you can pause anytime — it's up to you.
How do break reminders work? +
You set the interval for focus & break, then Satu does the nudging. Choose between a friendly notification or a full-screen blocking view that takes over your screen. Notifications behave like your usual app notifications. The blocking view is impossible to miss.
Can I start a session without a task? +
Yes. If you just want a timer to track your flow, skip the task name. The time counter still does its thing, keeping you aware of how long you've been in the zone.
What is the Lofi Player? +
It's a built-in YouTube player with shuffled lofi or ambient tracks. For those with a specific vibe in mind, the Pro version allows you to paste your own YouTube link.
I just want to chill with some Lofi without doing any work! +
Satu has its own dedicated Chill Mode. Simply activate it and let the app play a random lofi or ambient track — no timers, no reminders, just pure relaxation with your favorite tunes.
Why can't I play my YouTube link? +
Some YouTube videos don't allow embedding due to copyright, age restrictions, or privacy settings. If your link doesn't work, try a different track.
Is this app still being developed? +
Yes. More features are actively being built. Pro includes custom links, Reminders integration, favorite tracks, quick notes, a floating mini window, flexible reminders, and auto-start lofi — with more to come.
How do I give feedback? +
Send an email to singgihnn@gmail.com — whether it's praise, bugs, or ideas.
