Description
- 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.
- Vitamin-R offers other features as well, including a scratch pad for getting new ideas out of the way without getting off task and a separate pad for keeping ideas on the current task.
- Vitamin-R is designed to work any way you need it to, so by default, you get to choose the duration of your time-slice and break periods. But, if you're a true Pomodoro Technique aficionado, which works using a specific relationship between work and break timing, you can configure Vitamin-R to adhere to the Pomodoro Technique.

Features
・Time Slice Your Work. 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.
・Get 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.
・Find Your Rhythm. Each one of us is different. Finding out what works best for you is the key to true productivity. Vitamin-R helps you by giving you the tools to gain more awareness of how you spend your time, what works for you and what does not. Armed with this new knowledge, you can eliminate unproductive work patterns and discover the work rhythm that suits you best.
・Get It Out of Your Head Quickly. Did you know that your short term memory can only hold 4-6 “chunks” of information? The slightest interruption and it’s all gone and you have to start from scratch. That’s why Vitamin-R provides you with the “Now and Later Board”, complete with FastType magic, to give you a place to quickly dump all those things that go through your head and allow you to quickly return to your task.
・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. It complements rather than replaces traditional to-do list managers, such as Things or OmniFocus for which direct integrations exist.
・Now With Cloud Synching! If you routinely work on multiple Macs, you will love Vitamin-R’s new ability to effortlessly synch your time slice log across the cloud using the free Dropbox service. Setup is as easy as ticking a checkbox.
・Recapture the lost of art of joyful concentration. Overcome procrastination. Rediscover the motivation within yourself.

What’s New in Version 2.43:
・This version rolls back the new swipe implementation using the new macOS navigation controller. Note: There appears to be UI problems on OS X 10.11 El Capitan and potential crashes when people use keyboard navigation really, really fast. I knew it was a big underlying change with plenty of risks, but I felt confident that I had tested it sufficiently and it is essential for moving the tool forward. I guess I am not a fast enough swiper.. Sorry, guys!
Vitamin R 2 40 – Personal Productivity Tool Set
publicspace today is proud to announce version 3 of Vitamin-R, its innovative time boxing solution designed to overcome procrastination, retain focus and maintain motivation. Version 3 features a completely reimagined single window user experience, a soft break and lock screen option, deeper customization, improved support for the Pomodoro Technique, clearer statistics, faster log handling, personalized profiles, an integrated help system, improved integration with OmniFocus 3 and Things 3 and many other improvements.
Vitamin-R creates optimal conditions for the human brain by structuring 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 users with tangible feedback on their progress and achievements.
New In Version 3:
Version 3 features a completely rewritten single window user interface which integrates all major tools: workflow, log book, statistics, help system and note pads into a single window. The new interface takes Vitamin-R’s peerless configurability to the next level, by offering the option to add or remove user interface and workflow elements to create individualized workflows.
The new “soft break” feature no longer interrupts the user at the end of a time slice, but instead waits for up to 30 seconds for the user to stop typing or mousing. Vitamin-R makes it easy to extend time slices for short periods.
The new “lock screen” feature allows users to optionally lock the display of their Mac during timed break to force them to take breaks away from their desk.
The statistics tool has been completely rewritten for improved clarity and the log file handling has been optimized for users with a lot of logged time slices. The new log book provide a much improved overview of recent time slices and serves as a place to rapidly switch tasks.
Vitamin-R’s integration with OmniFocus 3 and Things 3 has been updated and improved and now imports tag names and durations where available.
The new “Profiles” feature allows users to pre-configure the countless tool options to best match their preferences and workflow. Particular attention has been given to people who want to implement a purer version of the Pomodoro Technique rather than Vitamin-R’s more flexible approach.
The new “Pomodoro-style breaks” control allows timed breaks to be configured with the two or three short breaks followed by a long break advocated by the Pomodoro technique.
Other improvements include quicker keyboard-based controls for changing durations, improved options in the right click status bar menu and support for macOS 10.14 Mojave and its unique visual style.
For now, the Vitamin-R 3 Beta is exclusively available from the publicspace web store for for $24.99 (USD). The web store also offers Family, Business and Enterprise licensing and customers may chose to include a “forever upgrade” with their purchase. Each Vitamin-R web store purchase includes a free license for its companion product, Noise Machine, which is also available separately starting at $4.95 (USD).
