Pomodoro Timer helps you stay focused and beat procrastination with structured work and break cycles, detailed productivity stats, and ambient sounds designed for deep work. Set your ideal focus and break durations, then let Pomodoro Timer handle the rest. A smooth circular countdown keeps you anchored in the present moment, updating correctly in the background so you always know exactly how much time remains — even after locking your screen. Label each session with a task name so your daily log reflects what you actually accomplished. At the end of the day, see every completed cycle grouped by task. Over the week, the built-in Swift Charts statistics view shows your focus hours, session counts, and streaks at a glance so you can spot patterns and stay motivated. Ambient sounds — including rain, white noise, and café atmosphere — play during focus sessions to mask distractions without pulling your attention away. They pause automatically during breaks and resume when the next focus cycle begins. Streak tracking rewards consistency. Complete your target number of Pomodoros each day to extend your streak. The home screen displays your current streak alongside today's session count so the momentum is always visible. Key features: - Configurable focus and break durations (1–60 minutes each) - Accurate background timer with circular progress display - Task labels and per-task daily session log - Weekly productivity stats with Swift Charts - Ambient sounds (rain, white noise, café) - Daily streak tracking - Keep-screen-awake option during focus sessions - Local notifications for cycle start and end - No account required, no ads, no subscriptions
