Steady is a Pomodoro timer for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. Users can run the familiar 25-minute focus and short-break cycle or create custom timer profiles for different kinds of work. Once a session starts, controls remain available through the Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, StandBy, widgets, Siri, and Shortcuts, so the app does not need to stay open. The timer can also appear as a floating picture-in-picture window on iPad. Free features include the timer, sounds, widgets, daily goal, and seven days of statistics. Steady Pro adds custom profiles, app blocking, Apple Watch, complete history, CSV export, and visual themes through monthly or lifetime purchase options.
