Notch Pomodoro

A Pomodoro timer that lives in your MacBook's notch. Focus at a glance, your way, and export each day to Markdown. Beautifully simple. Completely offline.

Notch Pomodoro turns the space around your MacBook's notch into a focus timer. Start a session and a small pill sits quietly at the top of your screen, counting down. Click it to expand a full panel, and it tucks away again when you're done. No windows to manage, no Dock icon, no clutter.

BUILT FOR FOCUS

• Run focus, short-break, and long-break intervals in the classic Pomodoro rhythm
• Customize each interval's length and color to match how you work
• Jot a quick note on what you focused on, saved with the session
• A gentle chime, a notification, and a "time's up" pill alert let you know a session ended, even when the panel is collapsed

LIVES WHERE YOU LOOK

• Fits snugly around the notch on modern MacBooks
• On Macs without a notch, or on an external display, it draws a tidy simulated notch so it looks right everywhere

• Follows you to whichever display you're working on
  

YOUR WORK, WRITTEN DOWN

• Every session is logged in a clean History view
• Export a daily Markdown summary to any folder you choose, perfect for Obsidian, a notes app, or a work journal

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

• 100% offline. No account, no sign-in, no network
• Your sessions stay on your Mac. The only thing that ever leaves is the Markdown summary you export yourself

MADE FOR macOS

• Native menu-bar app that stays out of your way
• Full Light and Dark mode support
• VoiceOver labels, Reduce Motion support, and full keyboard control

Focus quietly. Notch Pomodoro keeps your timer one glance away, and everything else out of sight.
