Pomodoro Timer

Pomodoro Timer is a small Windows application whose purpose is to help you time a specific activity or task. You are given the freedom to allocate a certain time to a task and check if you can do it in the specified time interval.

Since this is a portable program, it is important to mention that it doesn’t leave any traces in the Windows Registry.

You can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you need to time your activities on the breeze, without having to go through installation steps.

This is a Java-based application, so you should make sure you have previously installed the working environment on your computer; otherwise you cannot run the tool.

You are welcomed by a clean feature lineup that allows you to carry out most operations with minimal effort. There’s not much to brag about the user interface, as everything is kept as simple and clear as possible.

Pomodoro Timer gives you the possibility to enter a user-defined time in minutes. As soon as you enter the desired value, the utility displays a countdown timer in the primary panel letting you know how much time is left until you need to finish the task. When the time is up, a small popup window lets you know that it’s time you stop working.

Tests have shown that Pomodoro Timer carries out a task quickly. It leaves a minimal footprint on system resources, so the overall performance of the computer is not affected.

On the downside, it doesn’t provide support for advanced features that could help you reveal a user-defined text message, play sound notification at the end of the task, and run a user-defined program.

Pomodoro Timer offers a simple software solution and comes bundled with limited features for helping you make use of countdown timer in order to time various tasks.
