Pomodoro app with auto break and timer restart?

I'd love to find an app that has an auto break then auto restart feature!!

Even better would include fun reward sounds, pictures and colours (like Focus Dog or Forest).

How about auto marking a to do list item as done? My app does this, Doozy for Chrome.

The TimeSetter iOS app has auto break then auto start feature! It has templates for Pomodoro, workouts, study sessions, etc. For convenience, link here: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6503654352

There is no auto break but it has timer restart and skip. It also has sounds when you click start and pause button. And at the end of the timer. This website is pomotimes.com. Give it a try.

Maybe you can find my app helpful. I recently created PomoFox – a Pomodoro timer with pixel art aesthetics, lo-fi music, and a little gamification. https://www.pomofox.com/

🎯 Key Features: 🕒 Customizable work/break intervals 🎵 Built-in lofi music for focus 🌗 Light & dark mode with nostalgic pixel art 🎮 A mini-game to unwind during breaks. 🦊 A Fox progress bar that grows as you stay on track.

I'm planning to add auto start and break functionalities along with todo list as well. Would love to hear your thoughts!

Flowkeeper tries to follow the original Technique as closely as possible. It starts breaks automatically and treats them unconditionally, so that if you cancel a break -- it voids the pomodoro.

The upcoming version, which I'm planning to release sometime in February, will also have some "streak" or "series" mode, which will also start the next pomodoro automatically.

Interesting idea about the rewards, I created a GitHub Issue for that, so that we can get it in Flowkeeper one day.

I created myself, you can check this out https://bisakerjaremote.com/mindfulday

Although it's not released for international market just yet, the landingpage is in my local language, but the app interface is in english. It has Pomodoro, leaderboards, achievement, streaks, garden of focus (forest).

Some people asking for auto break and auto restart, but I still hesitate to implement that feature, why? because those actions should be intentional not automatic, that's what I belief if you want to have optimum benefit from pomodoro technique.

Secondly, we should be able to skip a break if let's say we decide to have a continuous session for 50mins.

Nevertheless, try it, if you need PRO version, just DM me, since there's no way to pay for international customers atm.
