What is Pomodrone?

In the iTunes description of this app it is described as being designed and built with love, flawlessly crafted. With a description like that you of course go in with high expectations.

For those unfamiliar with the Pomodrone Technique, as I was, it’s actually a time management technique that was introduced in the 1980s.

The way it works is that you use a timer to help you break up your work into intervals of work, then a break, and keep repeating. In the traditional method you would work for 25 minutes at a time, then take a short break. The intervals are called “pomodori.” 

So why use this technique? Well some believe that be taking short breaks at regular intervals you will be able to “improve your mental agility.”

To use this technique you need to set the task, set the timer, get to work until the timer goes off, take your short break (three to five minutes in length), and then after four pomodori you need to take a longer break of 15 to 20 minutes.

The app is free to download but there is a Pro Version available for $1.99. The app currently has four out of five stars from users.

So now it’s time to get productive and try out the app. When you launch the app there is a brief introduction to the technique and how to use it, which I think is really wise to help educate people. Next you will set your session up and then tap to start the timer. At any time you can pause the timer and you can even reset it if need be.

Users seem to really being enjoying this app. As the developer has stated it is very clean and simple to use, you can literally set it up in less than a minute. There have been requests for more customization features to be added, so perhaps in upcoming versions this will happen.
