POMO is a calm study timer for focus sessions and deep work โ€” the classic tomato-technique rhythm. Work in a focused sprint, take a short break, repeat. After a few rounds you earn a longer break. POMO keeps that rhythm on one clean screen: a large progress ring, background-accurate timing and local notifications, so a session survives a locked phone. FREE - The classic 25/5 pomodoro, unlimited sessions - History of your sessions and daily stats - A notification when focus or a break ends POMO PREMIUM - Every built-in preset, from short sprints to deep work - Custom focus and break lengths - Custom tags for your projects US$4.99 per month or US$29.99 per year. The classic pomodoro stays free. No accounts, no sign-up, no ads. Your sessions stay on your device.
