The Philosophy Behind Tomaru

Tomaru isn’t just another timer app. It’s built on the belief that sustainable productivity comes from working with your natural rhythms, not against them. The Pomodoro Technique teaches us that breaks aren’t the enemy of productivity—they’re the secret ingredient.

Every 25-minute focus session is an opportunity to dive deep into what matters most. Every 5-minute break is a chance to recharge and reset. It’s a dance between intense focus and intentional rest, and when you get the rhythm right, magic happens.

Join the Conversation

We believe the best insights come from community. As we share our thoughts and discoveries, we’d love to hear yours too. What productivity techniques work for you? How do you maintain focus in a distracted world? What habits have transformed your work life?

While we’re setting up more interactive features, feel free to reach out to us on social media or through our app feedback system. Your experiences and insights inspire us to keep improving Tomaru and sharing valuable content.
