I built a free Pomodoro app with white noise and cute focus buddy animations — would love some feedback

I know there are already tons of Pomodoro apps, so I tried not to build “just another timer.”

The idea was to make a focus timer that feels more like a calm study companion instead of a strict productivity tool.

Main things I focused on:
\- Built-in white noise for focus sessions
\- Cute focus buddy animations to make the session feel less boring
\- Simple Pomodoro / break flow
\- No ads
\- No purchases
\- No login

I made it because many focus apps either feel too serious, too plain, or eventually push premium features. I wanted something lightweight, friendly, and completely free.

I’d especially like feedback on:
\- Do the white noise + animation features actually make the app feel different?
\- Would students use this daily?
\- Is anything missing that would make it more useful?

Pomodoro timer with focus buddy

I know there are already a lot of Pomodoro apps, so I didn’t want to make just another basic timer.

I wanted something that feels more like a calm study companion: start a focus session, play background white noise, and have a small cute focus buddy animation running while you study.

The app is completely free:

  • no ads
  • no in-app purchases
  • no login
  • Pomodoro focus/break sessions
  • built-in white noise
  • cute focus buddy animations

I made it because many focus apps either feel too plain, too serious, or eventually start pushing premium features. I wanted something lightweight and friendly for students who just want to start studying without extra friction.

I’d really appreciate honest feedback:

  • Do white noise and small animations make a Pomodoro timer more enjoyable?
  • Are the animations motivating, or could they become distracting?
  • What feature would make you use a Pomodoro app daily?
