Most affordable Pomodoro timer!

I’ve been looking for an affordable Pomodoro timer. Most of them are very expensive. This one is really cheap though, works very well and is cross-platform! I use it on my iPad & Mac at work and on Vision Pro when working remotely. 👏

The Apple Music integration makes it easy to. I used to forget that a break began, but because the music automatically pauses, you are very aware of it in this app!

Great music, easy to use

This app is simple and yet beautifully designed. And the Mac menu integration makes it so comfortable to use. The music selection (requires Apple Music subscription) is awesome! I didn’t know that Pokémon music can be so beautiful and relaxing…

I can really get into deep focus for a long time with this app and I never miss the breaks thanks to the music pausing. I can really recommend!

Great app for writers!

I am really enjoying this app for focused writing sessions. My only two little critiques is that I wish it worked with Spotify instead of just Apple Music (or that I could use my own playlist at least) and I wish it had more backgrounds to choose from.

I'm a little confused as to why it needs a subscription for the app AND Apple Music, wish is why I wish I could just use my own playlists.

It would also be nice if I could change themes in the middle of a session/during a break instead of just having to close the app and restart.

Other than those personal preferences, however, I'm enjoying the app quite a bit and look forward to updates and improvements.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for the kind words! I’ve noticed 3 feature requests from your review and put them all in my roadmap:

1. Option to play music from elswhere manually.
2. Change themes during a session.
3. More themes to choose from (or did you mean the background images?)

I’m planning to tackles these in the coming weeks or months. Please stay tuned!
