What is Reddit's opinion of Pomotodo?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I use pomotodo.com embedded into my "Today" dashboard. It's a 25 minute timer with a 5 minute break. Time-blocking helps me compartmentalize my Tasks and effort throughout the day because I work on many different projects/tasks. I have gotten into the habit of saying "This will might take 2 blocks" meaning 2x 30-minute work blocks = 1 hour of effort.

The best part of the app above, is that if you are still working after the 25 minute timer goes off, the app will continue to count the time. So you can finish your task whenever you "feel like it" and not when the app says so. At the end of the day, I can look back at how I spent my time and then I add the Time Spent on each of my Tasks.

In my main "Tasks" database, I simply have a field called "Blocks" and I put in a # for how many 30 minute blocks I worked on a given task. So 6 blocks = 3 hours.

Also: Sometimes I will track unstructured time, wasted blocks, leisure activities, etc. Sometimes it helps to know what doesn't work in order to find out what works.

There was an app that was perfect called Simple Pomodoro. It has a nice AMOLED mode, a sort of focus mode that made it the lock screen to prevent other apps distracting, and synced with Google Tasks as a todo. Unfortunately the dev stopped working on it.

What I use now is Pomello on Trello. The Kanban style makes it easy to move around tasks like you seem to want. Unfortunately, while Trello has a good Android app, Pomello is only for Chrome.

Also I found something called Pomotodo

What I've found most effective for me, if you're familiar with the Pomodoro technique, is Pomotodo. It's both a timer and a to-do list app. I can associate a pomodoro with a certain task, it has online sync with web, desktop, and mobile apps, free for what I use it for, the works.

It also has some pretty sweet graphs to track your productivity. (at oo, alam ko na wala akong napala this holy week. ;_; )

I use it, I am on a break right now actually. I use an app called Focus (mac - with trial) that actually blocks distracting websites (including reddit) and I combine it with another one with a todo list specifically made for pomodoro called Pomotodo.

I've been using the Pomodoro Technique for a few days now and feel like it's extremely useful. It helped me accomplish tasks easier because all I need to do is focus on one objective for 25 minutes and then take a 5 minute break. The link I've included is from one app, but the app I'm currently using is https://pomotodo.com/ which attracted me because it includes a To Do List with the Pomodoro timer. I was struggling with this web design project in Wordpress with a crappy theme. Now I've accomplished more in the last couple of days than I did in the last month.

Has anyone else had any experience with this technique?

I wouldn't recommend the ticktick pomodoro module if you want "very detailed stats" personally I use Pomotodo. I have lost count of the number of pomodoro apps I've used over the years but time and again I come back to pomotodo.

I think this technique is great and really recommend it to everyone. You still have to make the effort to focus but it really helps to know that it will be for 25 minutes and then a break. So you can really accomplish a lot in short burst of action. I recommend the Pomotodo because it also has a To Do List along with the timer and you can use it both in your phone and Computer .

I'm unable to answer directly to your question but have you tried pomodoro tools? If not, I think they could be worth testing for you. (http://pomodorotechnique.com/get-started/)

Todoist is a pretty nice tool but it's not really good if you want to set for example 30 minute goals for yourself. With pomodoro technique you try to do something for 25 minutes and then you have a 5 minute break and then continue working again.

I haven't really used pomodoro technique / tools myself but I would recommend testing a tool called Pomotodo.

Please, can you share it? I have had such a hard time finding a good Pomodoro timer. The best one I can find is Pomotodo.

I'd like to see what you've done. Was it just a simple alarm cycle or more? I really want to build myself a few good applications, chiefly a Pomodoro and GTD hybrid like Pomotodo, and an Instapaper clone that I can use for personal stuff.
