Tomatoid
Tomatoid is a free web app that structures work into timed focus sessions and breaks. Its timer begins with 25 minutes of work followed by a five-minute break, then offers a 30-minute break after four rounds. Users can play, pause or reset the timer at any time. The minimalist design is intended to reduce distractions and keep attention on the session. No account is required, and Tomatoid says it does not collect personal information from timer users. After the page loads, the timer can work offline while the page stays open in the browser. The site says it is optimized for Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Safari and should work in most modern browsers. It can be used in desktop browsers on Windows, macOS and Linux, and mobile browsers on iOS and Android; users can also add it to a device's home screen.
