Pomodoro for phone distraction
Use Pomodoro with a phone pause so breaks do not turn into automatic scrolling sessions.
Quick answer
Pomodoro helps protect time blocks, but it fails when every break becomes a phone reflex that is hard to stop.
Practical workflow
Choose one work block, define the break, add a pause before social apps and return to work when the opening was automatic.
Signal to measure
Measure completed Pomodoros, avoided phone openings during breaks and whether the user returns on time.
