Pomodoros

Focus in blocks, with a name on each one so the totals mean something later.

The Pomodoros screen with a twenty five minute timer ready to start, a row of lengths from fifteen to ninety minutes, a field for what you are working on, and totals of three today and forty nine all time over a bar chart.
Pick a length, name the work, go.

How it works

  1. Five lengths

    Fifteen, twenty five, forty five, fifty, ninety. Twenty five is the default, and the other four exist because twenty five is often wrong.

  2. Name what you are doing

    One field above the button. It costs two seconds and it is the difference between forty nine sessions and forty nine sessions you can account for.

  3. Forty nine sessions, twenty hours

    Counted all time, with three today and a chart of the last fortnight underneath.

Keep Pomodoros. Ignore the other twenty five.
