Pomodoro timer for night owls: students, developers, freelancers. Track your focus sessions, study time, and productivity, even when you work past midnight. Cucumber keeps your work session together while other timers split it at 12:00 AM. WHY CUCUMBER? Traditional Pomodoro timers break your statistics at midnight. Work from 10 PM to 2 AM and you get "3 pomodoros yesterday + 3 today". Numbers that don't reflect your actual work. Cucumber groups all pomodoros into ONE work session because that's reality. Your 6 pomodoros stay together. Midnight doesn't interrupt your progress or break your streak. FEATURES • Pomodoro Timer: configurable work and break durations • Work Sessions: intelligent grouping that respects midnight • Visual Progress: tomato icons for each pomodoro completed • Session History: today, this week, this month, all time • Configurable Breaks: short breaks, long breaks, or none • Manual or Auto: transition between intervals automatically or manually • Persistent Timer: continues running after app restart • Notifications: get notified when intervals end • Keep Screen On: optional setting for active timer • Import & Export: back up your history and move it between devices • CSV Export: open your data in Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers • Multi-Platform: Android, iOS, Mac, Windows, Linux PERFECT FOR Students: study late for exams without losing your streak Developers: code through midnight without breaking flow Freelancers: work on your schedule, track accurately Remote Workers: manage time across any time zone Creative Professionals: writers, designers, musicians working late Shift Workers: night shift? Your stats work correctly HOW IT WORKS Cucumber groups pomodoros into work sessions based on natural breaks (8+ hours between sessions). Complete 3 pomodoros before midnight and 3 after. Cucumber shows 6 pomodoros in one session, because that's what actually happened. Built for people who work when they work, not when the calendar says they should.
