FocusPomo review: price, free version and privacy

Our verdict

FocusPomo fits students who like clean design and want real data on their focus habits, with a fair lifetime option. Those who want a game or a group challenge should look at Flora or Study Bunny.

What FocusPomo is

FocusPomo is a Pomodoro timer built around statistics. Each finished session adds a small tomato to your weekly pile, and the developer says it avoids addictive game-like rewards on purpose. It offers focus trends by task and time range, a calendar timeline, custom focus tags with their own durations, white noise, an app blocklist, Apple Health sync and widgets. It syncs through iCloud with iPad, Mac and an Apple Watch app that works without an iPhone.

Who it suits

• Students who want to track where their study time goes
• Apple users who study across iPhone, Mac and Watch
