Yellow Tomato — Pomodoro Focus Timer & Website Blocker

Description

🍅 Pomodoro Timer 🚫 Website Blocker 🔥 Focus Streaks ✅ Tasks 📊 Stats — free, no account, private Yellow Tomato is a Pomodoro focus timer with a built-in website blocker. The sites that distract you stay blocked while you work — even tabs you already had open — and come back the moment your break starts. Use it as a study timer, or to protect deep work while you write or code. Focus sounds, a task list, forgiving streaks and honest stats come with it. Free forever. No account. No cloud sync. Private — your data never leaves your browser. ⸻ 🍅 How it works Add the sites that pull you away — once — and switch on "Block distractions". Pick a task — every session you finish counts toward it. Press Start. For the next 25 minutes, the sites on your blocklist are off-limits. Any tab already open on one of them is redirected too. The session ends with a sound and a notification that stays until you've seen it, and your sites come back. Take your 5-minute break guilt-free — you earned it. Your first tomato of the day lights up your streak. Check your stats and watch real progress build: focus time, completed and abandoned sessions, and the time behind each task. Sessions and breaks can be any length — drag the slider (5–90 minutes) or type the exact number you want. Pause, skip, and resume work the way you'd expect. Want a hands-free loop? Let breaks and sessions start themselves until you stop. ⸻ ✨ What's included (all free, all the time) 🎯 A focus timer that fits your flow Any session and break length, plus an optional long break after every 2 to 8 sessions. You decide what happens when a session ends: start the break right away, ask you first, or keep counting while you're in the zone — the extra minutes go into your stats (up to 4× the session length), or discard them if you'd rather not. And when a break ends: wait for you, or start the next session automatically. It keeps counting with the popup closed. 🚫 Distraction blocker that respects your breaks Block websites by adding them to your blocklist — as many as you like. Blocking a site covers its subdomains too, so youtube.com also blocks m.youtube.com. Need one part of a blocked site? Add an exception: block google.com and still allow mail.google.com. The blocker only runs during a session: press Start and every open tab on a blocked site is redirected right away. The moment you're on a break, the sites come back. A blocked page shows a friendly screen with the live countdown and a motivational message, not an angry error, and offers a way back to the site once it's unblocked. 🎧 Focus sounds Ambient music, ambient piano, lo-fi, birds, a stream, wind, or brown, pink and white noise. The sound plays only during a session, fades out when you pause or stop, and stays quiet during breaks. Set the volume, or mute it with one click from the popup. Every sound is built into the extension, so it works offline too. 🖥️ Full-screen view, display mode and mini timer One click in the popup opens the full-screen view in its own tab: a big countdown that shows when your session ends, your task list right next to it, and a button for true full screen. Display mode keeps only the big countdown, for a big screen, a meeting where you share the tab, or a stream. Or pop the countdown out into a small always-on-top window and keep it in view over a call or another app. Keyboard shortcuts open the popup (Alt+Shift+T) and the full-screen view (Alt+Shift+F). 🔥 Streaks that don't punish you Build a streak of consecutive days you hit your tomato goal. Choose your own work week — Monday-to-Friday by default — so weekends don't break your run. Miss one day after a strong week? The streak auto-freezes with a rescue day, so a single off-day doesn't wipe out weeks of progress. Motivating, not guilt-inducing. ✅ Tasks linked to your sessions Add what you're working on, reorder by priority with drag and drop, check things off as you go. Pick "Focus on this task" and every session you finish counts toward it — each task shows how many Pomodoros and how much time it took. Bulk actions to clear completed tasks. Survives browser restarts. Hide the section entirely if you prefer a pure timer. 📊 Statistics Every session is logged locally, completed AND abandoned (most timers only count the wins). Day, week, month and year views compare each period with the one before. A calendar heatmap shows your streak days, another shows the hours you work best, and a ranking shows where your time went, task by task. Click any day to see its sessions. Forgot to press Start? Add the session by hand, or fix one that went wrong. Export everything as CSV or JSON. 100% on your device. 🔔 Toolbar badge, sounds & notifications Show remaining minutes or completed sessions in the toolbar at a glance — or turn the badge off entirely. When a session or a break ends, a sound plays (a classic ding, chimes, marimba, a singing bowl, a bell, a kitchen timer or an alarm clock, or none) and the notification stays on screen until you've seen it, so you don't miss the switch. An optional page at the end of each session can walk you through a short breathing or eye-rest exercise for your break. 🌗 Light and dark themes Auto follows your system, or pick Light or Dark. It applies everywhere: the popup, the full-screen view, statistics, and the block page. 🌍 Three languages English, Español, Português (Brasil) — fully localized. ⸻ 🔒 Privacy by design No account required. Ever. No cloud sync. No analytics or telemetry pings. No host permissions for arbitrary sites. All data stays on your device, in your browser. We can't see what you're working on, and that's the point. There's no Pro tier and nothing to upsell.
