Pomozen
Pomozen is an open-source timer for organizing focused work periods and breaks. Its standard cycle has 25 minutes of focus, a 5-minute short break, and a 15-minute long break; users can change the durations, session count, and reminder behavior. Presets provide quick timer choices, while customizable notifications signal transitions and separate reminders prompt users to drink water. The app tracks focus sessions, break times, and productivity patterns, and supports custom labels for tasks or activities. The maker says all features, timers, and logs work offline, with logs and preferences stored on the device rather than sent to servers or third parties. Pomozen lists no third-party integrations and uses the Apache License 2.0. Its listed plan costs nothing, and it has no free trial. The releases page identifies v1.2.3 as the latest release and describes Ambient Mode in that version. The README directs Android users to download a release and install the APK. The maker invites bug reports, feature suggestions, and pull requests; its contributing guide is marked as coming soon. Version 1.1.0 dropped support for the Glyph feature on devices that support Glyph.
