Founder’s note
I originally built BetterPomo to help my girlfriend and me study together and stay accountable, even when we were not in the same place. Most productivity tools felt either too individual or overloaded with features, so I wanted something simple that combined focus sessions, communication, tasks, notes, and progress tracking in one place. As I continued building it, other students and friends started using it too. That made me realize the same problem affects many people who want to study or work with others but struggle to stay consistent alone. I want BetterPomo to reach students, friends, study groups, and remote teams who need a practical way to focus together. The product is currently completely free because my main goal is to make it genuinely useful and accessible. There is still a lot I want to improve. My next priorities are making the mobile experience more reliable, improving group reports and analytics, simplifying onboarding, and learning from how real users interact with the platform. BetterPomo started as a personal solution, but I now want to keep developing it into something that helps anyone build better focus habits with other people.
Spotlight note
BetterPomo is one of our favorite apps here. Productivity apps are made by everyone, and almost none of them are creative, but this is definitely an exception. The design and presentation, along with the idea, are amazing, and a pomodoro technique focus tool for teams is definitely something that people need. I will even use it myself for work. The sessions work, you can get together with more people and "lock-in", engage in the chat, listen to music. This belongs here.
