Description

Welcome to Pomodoro Hero !
The Pomodoro Technique is a time management system that encourages people to work with the time they have—rather than against it

This is about focus
Using this method, you break your workday into 25-minute chunks separated by five-minute breaks. These intervals are referred to as pomodoros.


What do you do in a 5 minute Pomodoro break?
One important thing to remember is that this short break is meant to be a break. The key here is you should spend the time doing something completely different than what you had been doing. You can have a short walk,meditate, drink water, stretch, clean etc.."

Benefits
This technique is an effective way to achieve a balance between quantity and quality, and all you have to do is focus for 25 minutes at a time

How to use Pomodoro Hero?

1. Determine the project to complete
2. Start the Pomodoro Timer (by default is set to 25 minutes but you can adjust in settings)
3. Concentrate on finishing the task to be completed until the Productivity Timer sounds
4. When the timer sounds you can have a break (by default is set to 5 minutes but you can adjust in settings)
5. During the break try to accomplish the recommended habits
6. When the short or long break timer sounds, begin at step 1 again.

Love the app but wish it had a few little things

I paid for the premium version and I definitely feel more productive and focused with it than without it. However, I wish there was the option for the timer to automatically go into the next session without having to press start again. I feel like I would be less likely to procrastinate if it had this feature and it would be easier to move on to the next session without having to think about it. If you could add this that would be great. Thanks!

Dear Sir/Madam. Thanks for your kind words and your five stars. The "breaks" are built in purpose so the users are 'conscious' of what they are doing. Anyway we will consider adding this feature in our settings as it is technically possible. Best

Good timer IF

Really like this program and would be willing to pay annual subscription fee EXCEPT I use the timer on my phone and I often listen to music or audiobooks while I complete tasks and the timer doesn’t break through. I have to switch back to the app to check my time. Same if I’m working on flash cards in another app. I get a notification but have to go back to the app to hear the timer go off. This makes the timer a lot less useful to me. I will probably delete.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for your review. There is an option in Settings where you can switch the alarm channel to 'Music' , it will force the timer to not only notificate via push notification but also to ring even if music is on.

Timer notification doesn’t work

I thought I could stop searching for a Pomodoro app due to the great project features BUT a major part of the Pomodoro method is the timer. If you are using another app when time is up, you don’t get notification by sound, vibration, nor visual. You have to keep going back to the app to check the time. Very inconvenient and disrupts focus.

I’ve seen comments by developers saying there’s something wrong with the user’s settings. No, it’s the app! They mentioned turning notification to “music” would fix the issue; however, this “music” setting does not exist. Do you know your app? Unsubscribed. The search continues.

Developer Response ,

Dear Sir/Madam, thanks for your detailed review, it help us on take the app to the next step. As you mention in your main concern we will have to investigate it further as it appears that this 'bug' only happen in certain devices. As per the notification "music", it was available in earlier version of the app. We are currently working hard so we can take you back. Best
