The Problem

Constantly checking the clock

You lose focus every time you glance at the time, wondering how long you've been working.

App switching kills flow

Opening a separate timer app pulls you out of your work and breaks your concentration.

Overcomplicating productivity

Most Pomodoro apps are bloated with features you'll never use — projects, reports, integrations, accounts.

How We Solve This

Lives in your menu bar

Always visible, never in the way. See your remaining time with a quick glance — no app switching required.

One-click simplicity

Start a focus session with a single click. Pause, reset, or take a break just as easily.

Stays out of your way

No sign-ups, no sync, no notifications begging for attention. Just a timer that does its job.

Built by an indie developer who actually uses it.

It's a time management method where you work in focused 25-minute sessions followed by 5-minute breaks. After four sessions, you take a longer break. It helps maintain focus and prevent burnout.

Can I customize the timer durations?

Yes. You can adjust focus session length, short break length, and long break length to match your personal workflow.

Does PomBar collect any data?

No. PomBar runs entirely on your Mac. No accounts, no analytics, no data leaves your computer. Your focus habits are your business.

Does it work offline?

Yes. PomBar works completely offline with no internet connection required.

Is there an iPhone or iPad version?

PomBar is Mac-only, designed specifically for the menu bar. For focus tools on iOS, check out our other apps at MonoSuite.
