Pomodora vs Calume

You know that feeling when you sit down to work and suddenly two hours vanished into your phone? Yeah. We built Pomodora to fix that. Pomodora is a focus timer that actually makes you want to lock in. Start a session, put your phone down, and watch a live timer count on your lock screen while you crush whatever you're working on — studying, coding, working out, painting, writing, anything. When you're done, that session becomes a colorful block on your personal timeline. The more you focus, the more your day fills up. It's oddly satisfying. YOUR LOCK SCREEN BECOMES YOUR FOCUS COACH Here's the best part: you never have to open the app to check your timer. Pomodora shows a live countdown right on your lock screen and Dynamic Island. Pause, resume, or stop your session from the lock screen. Your phone stays locked. Your focus stays locked in. A TIMELINE THAT MAKES YOU WANT TO DO MORE Every focus session you complete appears as a color-coded block on a beautiful 24-hour timeline. Studying for an exam? See your sessions stack up. Grinding on a project? Watch your timeline fill with deep work. It turns productivity into something visual and motivating — you'll actually want to start another session just to fill the gaps.
