A study timer that never loses your hours
Your hours are saved even if you refresh or close your laptop, and your stats show when you focus best.
Most study timers are counters: close the tab and the session's gone. Studova's timer records when you started, so a refresh, a crashed browser or a closed laptop lid can't corrupt your hours. Reopen the app and it asks whether you were still studying.
Every session is tagged by subject and flows into analytics: your best hours of the day, your strongest weekdays, weekly trends and lifetime records. The timer is the front door to streaks, daily quests and weekly leagues that make you come back tomorrow.
Built for real study sessions
Count-up or Pomodoro, full-screen focus mode with soundscapes (rain, lo-fi, white and brown noise), blocking for distracting sites and apps, and study reminders that start sessions on time instead of waiting for motivation.
Sessions log by subject, and manual entry covers offline study: a paper-notes evening still counts toward your day.
Numbers that mean something
Ten focused minutes earn a token; tokens buy cosmetics and streak freezes. Finished sessions feed a heatmap calendar, a time-of-day matrix and per-subject breakdowns, so you can see exactly how your week went.
If you study with friends, the same sessions rank you in your pod's daily leaderboard and your weekly league.
Common questions
Does the timer keep running if I close the tab?
Closing the tab pauses the timer: Studova stamps the time the tab was last alive, and when you return it asks whether to continue or end the session. Hours are never silently inflated or lost.
Can I track different subjects?
Yes, sessions are tagged with subjects/categories, each with its own colour, and analytics break your hours down per subject.
Is there a Pomodoro mode?
Yes, alongside the default count-up mode, with configurable work/break lengths.
Is the study timer free?
Yes, the timer, subjects, analytics, streaks and group study are free.
Does the Studova study timer work on iPhone?
Yes, in Safari, and you can add Studova to your home screen. A native iOS app is not out yet, but there is an Android app.
Can I add study time I did without the timer?
Yes. Manual entry lets you add a session you did offline, such as an evening with paper notes, so it still counts toward your day.
