Focus Timer (formerly gnome-pomodoro) is a GNOME desktop application implementing the Pomodoro Technique with customizable work/break intervals, screen overlays, and statistics. It integrates deeply with GNOME via a shell extension, system tray icon, hotkeys, D-Bus, and CLI.
Use cases
- pomodoro timer for linux
- take regular breaks while working on GNOME
- track daily and weekly focus sessions
- customize work and break durations
- get fullscreen break reminders
- sync pomodoro sessions with time-tracking services
When to choose
- you use GNOME or another Linux desktop and want a native pomodoro app
- you want statistics on your focus sessions
- you need desktop integration like tray icons, hotkeys, and shell extension
- you want to automate actions on timer events via scripts or D-Bus
When to avoid
- you need a pomodoro timer on Windows or macOS
- you want cloud sync or team time-tracking out of the box
- you need custom automation scripts and can only install the Flathub version
