Tomatino overview

Tomatino is a Pomodoro timer for the macOS menu bar. It counts the session down on a dial, and it takes over the two steps around it: a work session turns on a Focus mode and starts your music, the break turns Focus off and pauses the music again.

macOS has no public interface for setting a Focus mode, so Tomatino goes through the Shortcuts app. It brings along the two shortcuts it needs and adds them at the press of a button.

  • A capsule in the menu bar with the time left: filled while it runs, outlined while it is paused, coloured by phase.
  • Sessions from 15 to 90 minutes, your own cycle length and breaks, started by hand or by themselves.
  • Focus on for the session, off for the break, through two shortcuts the app installs.
  • Music from an Apple Music playlist, a Spotify playlist, or a folder of files that Tomatino plays itself: MP3, AAC, ALAC, FLAC, WAV, AIFF.
  • After a break the music picks up where it stopped instead of starting the playlist over.
  • A break that covers the screen while it runs, on every display and over apps in full screen.
  • A global shortcut, launch at login, a sound and a notification at the end of every phase.
  • No account, no telemetry, no ads, no server of its own. Settings travel between your own devices over iCloud.
  • German and English, following the system language.
  • One purchase of $4.99 covers Mac, iPhone and iPad. No subscription.

What's new in version 2.4.0

  • The phase lengths are free now: 5 to 90 minutes of work, 1 to 15 for the short break and 5 to 60 for the long one, each with a stepper and a field in the Timer tab.
  • "Start Tomatino" and "Pause Tomatino" run from Spotlight, the Shortcuts app and Siri, and in Spotlight and Shortcuts the start can take a work length.
  • Tomatino now also speaks French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean and Chinese.
  • The sounds carry the names they have in System Settings.
