Recapture the Lost Art of Joyful Concentration. Overcome Procrastination. Get Motivated.

Vitamin-R creates optimal conditions for your brain by structuring your work into short bursts of distraction-free, highly-focused activity alternating with opportunities for renewal, reflection and intuition.

The built-in task logging and analysis features create positive momentum towards productivity by providing you with visible feedback on your progress and achievements.

* Slices Up Daunting Tasks into Manageable Chunks *
Vitamin-R breaks down large, vaguely defined tasks into a series of short "time slices" of between 10 and 30 minutes, each with specific, easily reachable and actionable objectives. During these time slices it keeps you focused on accomplishing only this one objective and provides you with mechanisms for dealing with interruptions, poor concentration, etc.

* Gets You Started *
Vitamin-R concentrates on getting you started allowing you to break through the resistance of procrastination and create a positive feedback loop of small achievements that get you closer to your ultimate aims. You will experience less stress caused by looming deadlines and a lack of clear direction, thus enabling you to enjoy guilt-free breaks that allow your intuition and creativity to emerge.

* Keeps You Focused *
Vitamin-R features an array of highly configurable visual, audio and speech notifications that get you back to your task as soon as your attention starts wandering.

* Effective Task Switching *
Task switching is a big, but often unavoidable productivity killer. So when you need to switch tasks Vitamin-R will make it as efficient as possible and help you pick up where you left off later on.

* Productive Breaks *
Regular breaks are not for slackers. In fact, taking regular breaks is especially important for people who work with high focus. Vitamin-Rs timed breaks make sure that your renewal break does not turn into a free afternoon and the "priming" technique allows your intuition to work overtime before you even start on a time slice.

* Find Your Rhythm *
Each one of us is different. Finding out what works best for you is the key to true productivity. Vitamin-R gives you the tools to gain awareness of where you spend your time and what works for you. Armed with this new knowledge, you can eliminate unproductive work patterns and discover the work rhythm that suits you best.

* Make It Your Own *
Vitamin-R plugs into your life rather than trying to take it over. You can use it occasionally to overcome procrastination or mental blocks or re-organize your entire working life around the concepts that it embodies.

* Syncs with Vitamin-R for Mac *
Vitamin-R for Mac has been the most comprehensive Time Boxing solution on the Mac for years and you can now seamlessly sync you time slices across devices.

* Attention Deficit Disorder *
Vitamin-R was never specifically designed with ADHD "suffers" in mind, but many ADHD-ers have found Vitamin-Rs approach to focusing attention particularly valuable.

* Students *
Many students, especially at Medical School (who will also get the joke), use Vitamin-R to help them achieve their full potential.

No task sync with Vitamin-R 2 for Mac

Therere no tasks synchronization via iCloud/Dropbox - only stat data. The trick is made specifically for user misguidance.

Love vitamin R for Mac -- trouble w- iPhone version

New phone, cant set up Dropbox integration. I use for off screen accountability. Cross device alarms would be an addition that would be so completely awesome & super useful.

Underwhelming

Ive trying vitamin-R on the desktop. Very cool software. But the iPhone app doesnt do much useful to me, and what missing is a Continuity feature to go from app to Mac and back

Ótimo pomodoro

É muito bom, mas falta ser universal!!

No Sync Option

There is no sync-option for Dropbox.

Vitamin-R on iOS and MAC-OS with sync-option

With this app / method you can work more focused and it helps to minimize distraction. I use it every (work-)day and helps to be more productive. I combine it with OmniFocus and this combination is very powerful for me. In the newest version it’s possible that the iOS-version on my iPhone syncs with my Mac version of Vitamin-R, really great improvement!

Needs a lot of work

I ended up buying this despite reading some scathing reviews in the hopes that it might just be somewhere in the vicinity if the functionality I am wishing for. Unfortunately it is not. Clunky at best. Feels entirely unfinished. Rather painful to use. Little things that would go a long way are inconceivably missing. Example. App allows you to leave "breadcrumbs" so that if you are returning to a task you be reminder where you left off. Cool. Interesting and thoughtful idea. So you return to a task and see the breadcrumb and think yes I need to get back to that. Naturally you press on the breadcrumb expecting that it will launch you into the task. But it doesnt. It does nothing. Its just static text. So what seemed thoughtful now becomes thoughtless and infuriating. I think that example about sums it up. I recently bought the desktop app and find it acts in much the same way. So. In conclusion. I think there is tons of potential here. I think its worth supporting on the hope that there is a lot to come. Definitely feels on the pricey side. Would I recommend it? Right now no. But if it develops quickly and in the right direction? Heres Hoping.
