This app is great for people who need to find that balance between work and breaks. If you’re a student, the learning process becomes much more fluid and paced, as long as you stick to the pomodoro technique that this app promotes. The additional graphical features also aid in keeping track of your progress and time management. Overall, the app is helpful, as long as you allow yourself to be helped by it.
The Best Timer Out There
Carrot Driver
I tried tens of different Pomodoro timers, and while the others may be more “aesthetic”, I find that I always come back to this one. The minimalistic feel is perfect for a work session. My favorite part is how they record your data — how long you spent doing a specific task. It’s not only key in optimizing your day, but it gives a sense of accomplishment that other timers don’t.
Love it!

Helps me stay focused and productive plus it keeps track of my tasks. The break timer/notification also helps a lot every after work mode because i tend to exceed my study break without the timer 🤣🤣 the app is aesthetically pleasing but still very functional. Hope you could add more features on the PRO version like change of theme color, etc. Thank u so much for this app! More power to the developers🤩
Good app for studying or working
ChanArbs
The app is amazing, however one thing that I feel lacking in it is the ability to reset your goals or intervals for a day. It tends to "carry over" the intervals from a previous day. In other words, if there are two remaining intervals from my previous day or study or work session, then after two intervals in my new session, it tends to go through long break instead of short break first. I hope the developer adds this option. Thank you!
Bug fixes and stability improvements.
