Pomodori is an app that will help you become a more productive person. The app serves as a timer which is meant to be used in conjunction with the Pomodoro Technique™ - a time management technique developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s.

Pomodori also helps answer the question "was I productive today?", by allowing you to rate each Pomodoro after it has been completed. You can choose to grade yourself with a pass/fail to see if you’re actually getting things done or if you need to make adjustments to your expectations. You can review your ratings throughout the day from the progress bar at the bottom of the screen. You can also name your task to help remind you what you’re supposed to be focusing on. Rating and naming of Pomodori are optional, and won’t interfere with those who wish to use the app as a basic Pomodoro timer.

Here’s how the technique works:

First decide on a task to be completed, then start the Pomodoro timer and try to complete that task in the allotted time. The running timer is meant to remind you to focus on a single achievable task. After the Pomodoro timer is finished, you’ll take a short break (5 minutes), before carrying on to the next Pomodoro. After four consecutive Pomodori are completed, you can take a longer break (15 minutes). This combination of intense focus and short breaks will help you become more a more productive person. Additionally it will also teach you to better estimate how long it takes for you to complete tasks.

Pomodori lets you customize every aspect of the experience.
• Start, stop, pause and reset the current timer
• Name the current task
• Customize Pomodoro, break, and long-break duration
• Automatically start the next timer, or set the timer so it has to be manually started
• Pomodori will notify you when your running timers are done, even if you close the app

Pomodori is not meant to be a task management app. It is, however, meant to make you a more productive person, by encouraging you to ignore the daily distractions that prevent you from getting things done everyday.
