Asked about Pomodoros
What is the Pomodoros module in Cadence?
Focus in blocks, with a name on each one so the totals mean something later. Fifteen, twenty five, forty five, fifty, ninety. Twenty five is the default, and the other four exist because twenty five is often wrong.
Can I switch Pomodoros off?
Yes. The library in Settings has a switch beside Pomodoros, and turning it off takes it out of the sidebar, the search and the Today screen. The other 26 switchable modules work the same way.
Does Pomodoros sync between the Mac and the iPhone?
Yes, once iCloud sync is unlocked for $14.99, paid once and covering the Mac and the iPhone together. Until then Pomodoros keeps its data on the device you typed it into, and it goes nowhere else.
