What Pomello is

Pomello turns Trello cards into Pomodoro tasks, letting users work through cards in timed intervals. After installing the desktop app, connect a Trello account so Pomello can read and modify cards. By default, it adds a pomodoro count to card titles, logs events in card comments, and tracks productivity statistics; these updates can be customized by board or list. Users can also create Trello tasks from Pomello and set details such as board, list, title, description, and labels. The timer provides short breaks after pomodoros and replaces the short break with a long one after four valid pomodoros. Its Productivity panel displays pomodoros, distractions, and related activity, and requires a Pomello account login. Basic is free; Premium costs $20 a year. Both plans include unlimited boards and lists, productivity and time tracking, checklist items as tasks, custom timer sounds, and productivity data export. Pomello is available for Linux, macOS, and Windows. Its Android download page says the Android version is coming soon.
