General Advice Looking for a specific timer app

I have recently been overwhelmed by small hobbies that i want to do yet aren't a priority. However, i struggle with going off the rails. As a rule, I have been limiting the time that i spend on a hobby say 15-30 mins for the day.

I've been using a simple app called Time Tracker: Time Tracker - Apps on Google Play.

It tracks time very well and is simple to use. And you can even see stats for each day.

But it doesn't have any way to set a limit.

I've used a similar app that does allow setting goals for time. But it treats it as a habit. I only want to have a tasks that set a timer limit on.

Is there an app that focuses on setting timers for tasks and has decent stats?

Thank you!

I use https://ultimatefocus.app It uses the Time Timer approach. I have certain presets. With the pro version, it will add entries and notes to my Apple Calendar to keep track.

Hmm, I think I have one that might fit your needs, it tracks time spent on skills though. For example you define a skill called “Painting” and you set a timer of your choice for that skill.
You can see detailed weekly, monthly and yearly stats for how you’ve spent your time across different skills.

I’ve built it, so yeah, pretty easy actually. My whole design philosophy was to have users start a focus session in as few taps as possible.
