Tomato 2: Pomodoro Timer 4+

Minimalistic & Work Focused

Pro's:
1) There aren't any fancy designs to keep you hindered from your work. Work Focused.
2) It's still very beautiful
3) The little memo box is very helpful! It's like a note from your past self telling you what you're supposed to be doing in that particular time interval. Very nice.
4) Sometimes you don't want to leave your work, and while other apps rip you out of your Zen to remind you that time's up, Tomato 2 allows you to keep on grooving until you say so. You take charge.

Con's:
1) Fluxuating between time intervals is a bit annoying since you have to go through the settings. I'd wish there was at least a toggle button on the home page where you can input your 2 most used pomodoro times (Ex, switch between 60 min intervals or 30 min). But, I'll still give it 5 stars since I don't alternate between time intervals too much.

Great Design for Focus and Productivity

Pros:
- It's a great design that's very simple, sleek, and minimalist.
- Very customizable settings.
- Has all of the features that you might need easy to access.
- The timer at the very top of the screen is helpful.

Cons/Recommendations:
- I would love for there to be a way to plan out the the schuedule in advance. This could look similar to the Stats/Review Panel, but instead of having it serve as a reflection on productivity, it could allow to plan out the Goals and duration of each session. This would help so much with productivity and planning and I would love to have this feature implemented.
- I wish there was a way to stop a session early without throwing off the session/break schuedule. (This may already exist, I'm not sure.)
- I wish it was easier to pause a session/break instead of holding down the option key while clicking the stop button. It would be great for there to be a pause button next to the stop button.
- I wish the button to go to the next thing planned (session, long break, short break) was bigger and more intuitive.

Thank you for this great app! :)

Fantastic simple tool

This has everything I need to have a simple pomodoro timer to stay on track.

The only feedback I would give is that I actually don't like having the window open (I just look at the time in the top toolbar), but when a session ends a notification window AND the main window open. So I have to acknowledge the notification window and close the main window every time, which becomes annoying.

I'm willing to put up with it though because literally everything else about this timer is exactly what I want.

This is fixed now!
