In their own words
Pomodorome
Pomodorome is a focus timer for Mac and iOS that runs configurable work sessions and breaks. On Mac, it stays in the menubar and opens as a popover without taking a Dock slot. Session and break lengths can be set to the second, and users can name their work for a daily log. Statistics include heatmaps, weekly bars, top tasks, and day, week, or month views. History is grouped by day and can be exported to CSV. The Free plan costs nothing and includes custom session lengths, daily statistics, sounds, and notifications. Pro costs $5, paid once, is a one-time payment with no subscription, and has a price that varies by region. Pro adds iCloud sync, advanced statistics and export, per-task projects, and priority support. The site says sessions remain on users’ devices, with no accounts, analytics, or servers. Pro sync is described as end-to-end encrypted through iCloud. Requirements are macOS 14.6+ and iOS 17.6+.
