The problem this product is built around
The timer method should fit the work. Equal intervals help when a task is repetitive or starting is hard; they hurt when stopping inside a thought is expensive. Flowtime and Pomodoro solve different scheduling problems.
How Wick solves it
Wick lets you choose a fixed interval or a Flowtime block ending at a natural boundary. History makes the actual session visible, so you can test the method against the work instead of arguing from preference. Open the Wick product page for current availability and plan details.
A practical workflow
- Use Pomodoro when equal work and breaks help you start.
- Use Flowtime when stopping mid-thought costs more than a bell helps.
- Keep app-blocking scope constant while comparing.
- Review output after several sessions, not one day.
What to check before you trust the result
Neither method fixes an overloaded schedule. Flowtime can expand without an end, while Pomodoro can interrupt badly. Define outcome and stop condition first.
Who this workflow is for
Use it when you are unsure whether the problem is starting, sustaining or recovering.

Wick is useful when it shortens a repeated decision while keeping evidence, assumptions and stopping points visible. Try Wick.
