Work deeply.
Rest intentionally.

Simple by design.
Powerful by habit.

Pomo distills the Pomodoro Technique into three quiet steps โ€” no friction, no fuss.

01

Add your tasks

Write down what matters today. Star the most important one โ€” it'll always appear in your menu bar so you never lose the thread.

02

Start a session

25 minutes of pure focus. No notifications, no distractions. Pomo counts down quietly in the corner while you do the work.

03

Rest, then repeat

Take a short break. Then return. After four sessions, a longer rest. The rhythm builds momentum โ€” and momentum builds great work.

The app

Beautiful in both
light and dark.

Pomo adapts to your Mac's appearance โ€” clean and minimal either way, never getting in the way of the work.

Focus sessions

A timer that stays
out of your way

No bloated dashboards. Just a clean countdown in your menu bar. When your session ends, Pomo lets you know โ€” then quietly resets, ready for the next one.

  • Customisable focus and break durations
  • Gentle audio cues at session boundaries
  • Auto-start breaks or review before continuing

"Incredibly simple. It doesn't try to be a productivity suite โ€” it just keeps me focused on one thing at a time, and that's the whole point."

James O.
Freelance Developer

"I love that my most important task is literally always on my screen. It's like having a quiet coach reminding me what I decided to work on."
