## Details

## Beyond Basic Pomodoro

TickTick implements Pomodoro as a complete workflow with four distinct phases, not just a 25-minute timer.

## The Four Steps

### Step 1: Planning
- Select tasks for the Pomodoro session
- Estimate how many Pomodoros each task needs
- Prioritize task order
- Set session goals
- Prepare workspace and eliminate distractions

### Step 2: Executing
- Start 25-minute focus timer
- Work exclusively on selected task
- No multitasking allowed
- No checking email, social media, or messages
- Stay focused until timer ends

### Step 3: Tracking
- Mark Pomodoro as completed
- Note task progress
- Record distractions or interruptions
- Update task estimates if needed
- Take mandatory 5-minute break

### Step 4: Analyzing
- Review completed Pomodoros
- Examine focus duration statistics
- Identify productivity patterns
- Assess estimation accuracy
- Adjust approach for next sessions

## Integration with TickTick Features

## Why Four Steps Matter

Simple timer: Start, work, stop
Complete workflow: Plan → Execute → Track → Improve

The complete workflow creates continuous improvement rather than just time management.
