Pomodoro is one of my favorite productivity apps, it's easy to use and it really helps to keep you focused. I like the fact you can track your tasks. It helped me to write my bachelor theses.
Nobody is mentioning if they used the free or paid version. The reviews say the free version has very annoying reminders to pay for the app, and the paid version reviews mention important bugs that aren't mentioned to be fixed in the updates. Can someone speak to these?
@tombielecki I used the free version for a few months at first. Ads were not a big deal. One day I got a notification that the pro version was on sale for $3. I upgraded primarily to support the dev.
A core belief of mine is that tracking time and reviewing the data weekly, biweekly or monthly is a key to success. I've run the gamut of time tracking/task management apps and I've tried Pomodoro before, perhaps for about a month.
I liked it, but I think Chronomate takes the cake considering it ties directly into Freshbooks which I use for timesheets which then get sent to my clients for review. I know Pomodoro takes somewhat of a different approach, but Chronomate seemed to do all I needed and I can share reports.
I still love Pomodoro's interface, though. Pretty darn slick!
I've been using this for a while now, on and off, and it's pretty good. I tried using it in the office and find it hard to stick to it, with the interruptions from colleagues, but I've been working from home this week and managing to clock 10 pomodoro's consistently. Definitely think this has increased my productivity and focus 👌
I like how it's on the menu bar with the time instead of the dock! Much better than the other pomodoro apps. And I like how it looks exactly the same as the mobile version.
If you need to track the time and you use Toggl, it's Chrome Extension allows you to stop tracking time after 25 minutes. I use that when working on different clients to track how much time I work on them and being able to focus at the same time
