Compás

What is Compás?

Compás combines timed focus blocks with an open-ended stopwatch for work or study. Use Pomodoro when you want a defined work interval, or switch to Cronómetro when a task needs flexible timing. The starting cycle is 25 minutes of focus, five minutes of rest and a 15-minute break after four completed blocks; durations and cycle length are configurable. Breaks and new blocks start manually rather than moving you into the next session automatically.

Work records stay on your Mac without an account or subscription. The publisher documents daily history, a seven-day view, daily goals and all-time totals. Active time from partial blocks is retained, while breaks are excluded. Daily totals can be exported as CSV, and full session data as JSON. JSON export is not a restore workflow: there is no backup-import interface yet.

In version 1.0.1, closing the window with the red button leaves the timer running. Reopen it from the Dock to return to the session; quitting with Command-Q or putting the Mac to sleep pauses timing. These behaviors are documented by the publisher, not independently tested here.

The linked DMG is the arm64 release for Apple Silicon Macs, not an Intel or universal package. The publisher has not specified a minimum macOS version in the reviewed documentation. The app is signed ad hoc but not Apple-notarized, so macOS may request approval at first launch. Its interface is currently Spanish, and its local history is not encrypted by the app.
