What's New in Pommie Lite

8.7

December 17, 2022

• Old notifications are removed when the app is opened. • The app now requires at least iOS/iPadOS 13. If you find Pommie Lite useful, please rate or review it in the App Store, or recommend it to family, friends and colleagues. This makes a huge difference to me and the future of the app. Please also consider paying for the full version of Pommie to help support development. The full versions includes many extra features: • Configurable work and break durations. • Over 35 alert sounds to choose from. • Use Timer Profiles to configure timer settings for different kinds of task. • Timer Profiles appear in iOS search results. Tap a result to automatically launch the app and change the timer settings. • Siri shortcuts for controlling the timer, getting its status and selecting a Timer Profile. • Shortcuts run in the background without opening the app. A custom, animated, response view shows the current timer status. • Customise which timer status information is included in the text response displayed or spoken by Siri. • Use Pommie shortcuts in Apple's Shortcuts app to control Pommie. Background execution is supported. • Interactive iOS notifications to view and control the timer. • Home Screen Widgets to quickly view and control the timer. • iOS 16 Lock Screen Widgets to quickly view the timer. • External display support showing a custom screen-filling view of the timer. • iPad multitasking. • iPad external keyboard shortcuts to control the timer. • Handoff the timer to or from Pommie running on another iOS or Mac device. • Independent Apple Watch app, including complications, with its own timer. Thanks in advance, Geoff.

User reviews

First use required upgrade!

The first setting I wanted to change (length of work time) required an upgrade. This is blatant bait and switch! Deleted!

Response from developer

I think it is very unfair to claim this is a bait and switch. The App Store description very clearly states that upgrading to the full version of Pommie is required to configure work and break durations (and includes many more features).

Been looking for this!

A straight forward Pomodoro (not a timer). It’s great. And it’s so minimalistic. Just what you need!

Work out

I just wanted a regular clock. I can’t even set this one. Therefore I can’t rate it anything but one for the look.

Simple, sensible, elegant

A simple, sensible idea elegantly implemented. (Look up "pomodoro technique" for the full story. Pommie Lite replaces the tomato.) When using this app I'm more focused. I no longer work till I drop or till I get that exhausted feeling. It's amazing how fast the 25 minutes pass. Then I go outside and walk around the block or do some exercises and come back refreshed. I can keep it up for hours and feel great. I love this way of working! I'll probably upgrade to the full version.
