Tadam

Simple Pomodoro timer that stays out of
your way and lets you get the work done

Available on Mac App Store

It’s all about simplicity

Tools used all the time should be simple.

Especially productivity tools, because if they aren’t,
they waste your time instead of saving it.

They should always be there when you need them,
they should get out of your way when you don’t.

Simple

Few buttons, few features and no configuration. The simpler the better for your productivity.

At your fingertips

Tadam lives in the status bar, so it’s always just a click away.

Out of the way

Glance at the icon and you already have a sense of how much time is left. Neat!

Just a minute…

You know that feeling when you’re really focusing on something, then the timer rings
and you need just one or two more minutes to finish that little thing?

In Tadam, when the time is about to run out,
the app icon starts pulsing, so you know you need to hurry up.

Timer-circle Timer-circle-fill

You can do nothing and after three minutes or so, you’ll be prompted to take a break

Timer-rang

or you can click on the icon and take a break now (or give yourself more time)

Give me a break!

Your brain needs rest to stay focused.
That’s why taking breaks regularly is essential to Pomodoro.

Tadam makes sure you do.

Break-window

When the timer rings, a big black window pops out, prompting you to take a break.
You cannot ignore it. You can either take a break or choose to work a little more.

You can move it — you’re still the boss — but it will move back in a few seconds.
It’s designed to be annoying enough that you will take the breaks you’re supposed to.
