Tomato App is a time management application based on the Pomodoro technique, specially developed for the Elementary OS 0.3 Freya and Elementary OS 0.2 Luna systems.
The app is quite straight-forward, after you start the counter, you will be notified after 25 minutes to take a break. The users can modify the pomodoro duration and break duration, via Settings.
The latest version available is Tomato 1.0, which brings the below changes:
- Colorful windows to represent the current app status
- Warning notifications (if the app is paused for a long period)
- Motivational notifications
- Notification sound
- Time worked: how much time you worked in the current day
- Progress bar (when the app window is not focused)
- Quick controls (right-click the app icon to see them)
