Apps we've shipped

Each one built with care for a single audience and a single problem.

Ice Study On App Store

Focus until the ice melts

A calm, visual focus timer that replaces progress bars with something more human: a real cup of ice that slowly melts as you work. Pomodoro mode, ambient soundscapes, and streaks that don't nag.

About

A small studio with a long-term view.

JTR Labs LLC is an independent software studio based in the United States. We build apps and websites the way we'd want them built — quietly opinionated, free of dark patterns, and respectful of your time and your data.

We're not a venture-funded growth machine. We're a small team shipping software that's worth keeping on your home screen — or in your browser tabs.
