Description
An Agile Activity manager that implements the Pomodoro Technique. It lets the user define his/her own tasks with deadlines, as well as retrieving detailed remote tasks from one or more Trac systems.
It features easy and fast access to all the features within a couple of clicks.
Pomodroid a free/opensource application that is evolving, based on your feedbacks. I am also looking for volunteers, being them designers, developers or simple willing to send suggestions!

Timer lacks too many basic settings (like changing ringtones) to be useful. Back button shouldn't reset timer, that's what the stop button is for!

No server required anymore, app improved a lot.

Far too elaborate, requiring a lot of explicit task setup for a very simple non-ticking timer. Pomodoro Addicted is a lot more straightforward.

Yeah, this server stuff is simply incomprehensible.

I found this application too complex for my needs. I never even set a task before uninstalling - sorry

Doesn't work while screen is off. Doesn't allow using the back button while timer is on. Draws buttons is a non-standard ugly way.

Nice concept, but the developer probably don't have time to fix bugs and improve the apps :(
