Getting Started

Tomatoes lives in your menu bar. Click the timer to access controls:

  • Start/Pause - Begin or pause your focus session
  • Reset - Reset the timer to 25 minutes
  • Music - Choose from ambient radio stations

How It Works

The Pomodoro Technique uses 25-minute focus sessions followed by 5-minute breaks. After four sessions, take a longer 15-minute break. This helps maintain concentration while preventing burnout.

Music Stations

The app includes free ambient music from SomaFM:

  • Drone Zone - Atmospheric ambient textures
  • Groove Salad - Downtempo ambient grooves
  • Deep Space One - Deep ambient electronic
  • Space Station Soma - Spaced-out ambient and mid-tempo

Troubleshooting

Music not playing?

Check your internet connection. The music streams from the internet.

App not opening?

Right-click the app and select "Open" if macOS blocks it.
