Working smarter is one of the easiest ways to increase your productivity. Sometimes no matter how much you stare at a problem, you just can’t find the solution. Until later when you’re watching TV and suddenly it all becomes clear. 30/30 is the app that wants to trick your brain into a new work cycle.

The concept of 30/30 is simple, work for 30 minutes, relax for 30 minutes. The app is set up so that your half hour of work should happen with no distractions, instead you focus totally on the task and then you get 30 minutes off to give your brain a break. Easy.

The app takes it to the next step and you’re not constrained to the 30/30 time frame. You can schedule tasks throughout your day, back to back, for up to ten days at a time. These do not have to be full half hours, you can schedule for a little as a minute. The important thing is to create a meaningful cycle to your work day. 30/30 is free and only available in the App Store.
