Focus To-Do vs Pomello

Focus To-Do combines task management with a Pomodoro timer for planning work and completing tasks in focused sessions. You can organize tasks and projects, set due dates and reminders, add subtasks and notes, and schedule repeating tasks. Timer controls include adjustable work and break lengths, pause and resume, skipped breaks, and continuous mode. The app can also help plan work or study, keep shopping lists, set birthday reminders, and arrange schedules. Its historical reports summarize work time, completed tasks, daily, weekly, and monthly time, and project time ratios. Focus To-Do syncs across Android, iOS, macOS, web, Windows, and other listed devices including iPad and Apple Watch. Local mode needs no registration, but its data cannot sync and is lost if the app is uninstalled. The free plan is available; the listed three-month Premium in-app purchase is $3.99 a month, billed for 3 Months. The privacy policy says personal information is stored in the People's Republic of China and synced task data is collected for synchronization.

Pomello turns Trello cards into timed Pomodoro tasks. After connecting a Trello account, it can read and modify cards; by default, it adds a pomodoro count to titles, records events in comments, and tracks productivity statistics. These behaviors can be customized by board or list. Users can also create Trello tasks in Pomello and set the board, list, title, description, and labels. The timer uses timed intervals, gives short breaks after pomodoros, and switches to a long break after four valid pomodoros. Its Productivity panel shows pomodoros, distractions, and related activity, and requires a Pomello account login. Basic costs nothing, while Premium costs $20 a year. Both plans list unlimited boards and lists, productivity and time tracking, checklist items as tasks, custom timer sounds, and productivity data export. Pomello is available for Linux, macOS, and Windows. The Android download page says the Android version is coming soon.
