Pomo 60

Pomodoro timer for iPhone
Coming soon

Pomo 60 is a pomodoro and focus timer app for iPhone. A kitchen timer without buttons. Wind the knob round the dial, let go, and it ticks back to zero.

Pomo 60 is the timer from a kitchen drawer, made for focused work. Wind it to 25 minutes, let go and start. When it reaches zero it rings, whether the app is open or not.

There is nothing to set up and nothing to tap. The knob is the whole interface.

Wind it for a 25-minute work session, a five-minute break, a boiling egg or a nap: any stretch up to an hour.

Questions

Does the timer ring when the app is closed?

Yes. At zero a chime plays, the phone buzzes, or both, whether Pomo 60 is open, in the background or the phone is locked.

How long can I set it?

Anything from one minute to sixty, with a firmer detent every five minutes.

Is it a pomodoro timer?

It is the kitchen timer the pomodoro technique was named after. Wind it to 25 minutes and work, wind it to five and rest.

Can I see the time left without opening the app?

Yes. While it runs, the time left is in the Dynamic Island, on the Lock Screen and in widgets.

Which iPhone do I need?

Any iPhone running iOS 18 or later.

Does Pomo 60 exist as a physical device?

Not yet. Pomo 60 is a concept made as a digital object: designed and engineered like a real timer, but it exists only on your iPhone. If you make hardware and would like to produce it in commercial quantities, we are open to collaboration: hello@objectism.app.
