simple, easy to use, that is all i need, nice free pomodoro app
nice app with sweet and simple UI

Great app, but needs more free options
Simple and efficient. Please remain free
Genuinely improves focus and study productivity

so useful for keeping me focused
beautifull app that does what it needs todo
Very helpful. I have never been this focused and productive before. I used to get distracted every 10 minutes whilst studying but not anymore. Thanks to this app!!! 👍✨
Flexible duration and cycle configuration
Custom work intervals, short and long break lengths, daily goals, and cycle counts — easy to tailor to any workflow
very useful and easy to costumize
great app for students
es muy fácil de usar no tiene demasiado anuncios y es minimalista. Es difícil que te distraigas además tiene varios breaks. Muy buena está app 💞
Works well for people with attention difficulties and ADHD
Specifically praised as a simple tool for those who struggle to maintain focus
good app
Simple and easy to use. Gets the job done.
This is literally the best app, I have adhd and use this either as a 5 min or 2 min Pomodoro in order to track time as well as act as a starting timer
Does exactly what it promises and runs in the background
Straightforward timer with no surprises; keeps counting when minimized and can keep the screen active
exactly what you want
this is great app
Great, does exactly what its meant to do with minimal distractions.
Nice visuals and color palettes, but theme options are limited
Pleasant look, soft colors, and background choices are well-received
nice app with sweet and simple UI
Seems to be a bug with notifications. The alarm doesn't go off, and when I check my phone the notification is always frozen at less than 20s left. Unfortunately defeats the point.
Noicee!!!
What users hate
End-of-session alert is too quiet or doesn't fire
The most common complaint: the alarm is often inaudible or fails to sound, leaving users unaware the interval ended
perfecto
great app, has made my studying much more effective and satisfying but most of all it made it rewarding. i'm finally enjoying studying again
gud pp
Alert doesn't trigger when the screen is off or locked
Sound and notification often don't arrive when the screen is off — users have to keep the phone on, which defeats the point
It has very structural problem when your phone is off and your time is up, it won't make any sound I can't study with a awake mobile phone.
It's nice when it works, but it's glitchy. sometimes the alert doesn't go off. Sometimes the timer just starts going into negative numbers instead of stopping. sometimes it does the long break when it's supposed to be doing a short one. Otherwise, when it's working, it's great for my productivity, it's simple to use, and there are no annoying pop ups.
A great app i like it
Timer goes negative instead of stopping and starting the break
After a session ends the counter dips into negatives and the break doesn't auto-start; users must manually open the app and tap Start
after the timer ends, there is no bell and it just goes into negative seconds
it is a really good and useful app
it was good 🙌👍
Users want volume control, multiple sounds, and custom alerts
Missing: volume adjustment, ringtone selection, looping alarm, custom sounds, and separate tones for work vs. break
great app, has made my studying much more effective and satisfying but most of all it made it rewarding. i'm finally enjoying studying again
gud pp
need some more feature like sound and orbit planning like what we are going to study today
No statistics or session history
No accumulated daily or weekly data — users can't see how much they've studied and want progress charts
good app, very useful
great
I love this app for its bare bones simplicity. It really is what it says on the package: a pomodoro timer. No bells, whistles, or hidden fees. My only soft complaint is that there is no way (that I have found) to reset the number of pomodoros. So if I do two extra one day, those two are still marked the next day.
Cycles don't reset — yesterday's Pomodoros bleed into the new day
The counter doesn't reset, so after a long break or the next day it behaves unexpectedly; a Reset button is missing
Needs some sort of feature to completely reset the pomodoro. Like, let's say you do 3 pomodoros and then you take a long extended break. When you come back to do more, the cycle hasn't been reset, so when your 25 minutes are up it will give you a 15 minute long break on the first one.
1. Нет возможности запуска текущего интервала с заданным временем. 2. Неудобная система переключений видов интервалов (надо пролистывать друг за другом в определённом порядке) 3. Нет возможности задать день с начала. Если у тебя остались две точки-цикла с предыдущего дня, то тебе сегодня радостно пройдёт всего 6 циклов, и затем закончит. 4. Бывает, пропускаешь уведомление о конце цикла - из-за тог
very useful 💯 u can also install
Persistent notification and per-second watch pings
A permanent notification stays up throughout the session, and smartwatches receive an alert every remaining second — intrusive and drains battery
It helped me a lot ❤❤
very good for students
Great app!
Users want a widget and one-tap launch
Users want to start the timer from a home screen widget instead of opening the app every time
Great app, but needs more free options
This program is really great and it helped me a lot to finish a lot of lectures.
ok
No true AMOLED dark theme or landscape mode
Users want a true black background for AMOLED displays (battery savings, burn-in concerns) and horizontal orientation support
This is a very useful App, my productivity at work grows wnd i get more break time then the 30 minutes that the law prescribes.
Great app!
makes setting and adjusting pomodoro timers super easy
Users want task labels and daily session planning
Users want to tag sessions by topic (study, workout) and plan what to work on in each interval
need some more feature like sound and orbit planning like what we are going to study today
goated
very useful 💯 u can also install
Students need longer blocks and easier interval switching
Requests include 50+10 study presets, the ability to skip an interval, and switching interval types without cycling through all options

Easy to use. I love that I can set it up for multiple cycles, so we can just run throughout my work day.
