Your pomodoro breaks are making you tired. Five minutes of scrolling turns into forty, and you come back curled up like a shrimp. Shrimpodoro is a pomodoro timer with one rule: your next pomodoro stays locked until you squat. HOW A ROUND WORKS • Focus for 5–120 minutes (25 by default). A tiny hand-drawn version of you types along and slowly curls into a shrimp. • Time's up. The next pomodoro is locked. • Do 5, 10 or 20 squats. Your front camera counts every rep right on your iPhone. Video is never recorded or uploaded, and it works up close, even with your feet out of frame. • A pink tomato drops into your pile, and the next round unlocks. TWO THINGS TO COLLECT • Tomatoes for focus: finish a round and squat for a pink tomato. Skip or give up and it's a black one. They pile up on your home screen all day. • Landmarks for squats: every squat climbs 1 meter. Unlock 38 badges, from a little house to the Eiffel Tower, Mt. Fuji and Everest (8,849 m). ALSO • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, StandBy, and a Dynamic Island timer • Siri: "Start a pomodoro with Shrimpodoro" or "Add 10 minutes in Shrimpodoro" • Day, week, month and year stats • Share your day as an image or a short video • No account, no sign-up. Your history stays on your iPhone. WHY SQUATS Short movement breaks during long sitting are linked to less fatigue and better mood, and a minute of squats every 20 minutes helped keep brain blood flow from dropping during hours of sitting. Standing up alone isn't enough. Moving is. FREE AND PRO Free: unlimited pomodoros and all 38 landmark badges. Shrimpodoro Pro: month and year reports, focus insights (your golden hour, the minute you tend to quit, and whether you’re improving), sharing without a watermark, and the big Tomato Pile and Lock Screen widgets. Monthly, yearly or a one-time lifetime purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage them in your Apple ID settings.
