Focus Valley vs Tickari

Focus Valley is a Pomodoro timer that works in any browser without signup, rewarding each focused minute with sparks that count toward a global weekly ranking.

Tickari keeps daily tasks, quick notes and checklists in a calm web app, with push and email reminders plus an optional public profile page for sharing lists.

About Focus Valley

Focus Valley is a browser based Pomodoro timer for students, developers and remote workers who want structure and a little friendly competition. The default preset runs 25 minutes of focus followed by a 5 minute break. Each minute of completed focus earns a spark, and daily streaks are stored locally, so no account is needed. Signing up is optional and serves only two purposes: joining the world leaderboard, which resets every Monday in UTC, and syncing data across devices. The top three each week receive Gems, which never expire. A desktop app that covers the screen when work stops is described on the site but is temporarily unavailable. The web timer is free with no time limit.

About Tickari

Tickari is a lightweight task manager meant for people who keep abandoning complicated productivity systems. Users add a task, tick it off and move on, optionally attaching a short note, an image or a checklist converted from a note, in the style of Google Keep. Desktop users can rearrange items by dragging, while mobile users see a simple grid. Reminders arrive by push notification when enabled and by email. Sign in is handled through Convex Auth. Personal use is free, and Tickari Pro, bought once, adds a custom subdomain and a public profile page for sharing lists, though its price is not stated on the pricing page.
