Questions

Is Studdy free?+

Yes. The timer — all four techniques, unlimited use — is free and does not require an account. You only pay if you want streaks, leaderboards, groups, tasks, achievements, and ambient sounds.

Is this a subscription?+

No. Studdy Pro is a one-time payment of $9.99 that unlocks those features for good. There is no recurring charge.

Do I need an account to use the timer?+

No. You can run a full focus session as a guest. Creating a free account just lets you save that session and start building a streak.

What happens after a focus session ends?+

The timer automatically switches to a short break for the technique you picked (5 minutes for Classic Pomodoro, for example), then back to focus. You don't have to wait through the break — hit Reset any time to start a new session right away.

Does my session save if I close the tab early?+

No. A session only saves once its focus timer actually reaches zero. If you close the tab, refresh the page, or your device sleeps before that happens, that session won't be logged — so it's worth leaving the tab open (or your device awake) until you hear the completion chime.

How exactly does my streak work?+

One completed session — any length, any technique — keeps your streak alive for the day. Miss a full day with zero sessions and it resets to 1 on your next one, though your longest streak is always saved even after a reset.

What happens to my streak if I don't pay?+

Your sessions still log and your streak keeps counting in the background — you just can't see the streak counter, heatmap, or leaderboard rank until you unlock Pro. Nothing is deleted.
