The Pomodoro Technique is a proven productivity method based on alternating periods of focused work and short breaks. The built-in timer in SingularityApp helps you maintain this rhythm without getting distracted from your to-do list — teaching you to work with focus while avoiding burnout.
In notes, Pomodoro is not displayed by default. To add it, tap “More options” on the note detail page.
How to start the Pomodoro timer:

The Pomodoro timer can be started for a specific task — through the task’s context menu.
The app tracks how many work intervals you’ve completed for each task — this statistic is saved automatically and cannot be reset.
If you want to restart the current interval, click "Reset this timer" in the bottom-right corner of the timer window. The interval will start over.
By default, the Pomodoro timer is set to the classic rhythm: 25 minutes of focused work followed by a 5-minute break. This helps you stay concentrated and then take a short rest.
Every 4 cycles, a long break appears — giving you time to fully recharge.
If these intervals don’t fit your routine, you can choose a different option using the presets above the timer.
Click the desired preset — the timer will stop and restart with the selected duration.
Important: the selected interval is temporarily saved in the settings and will be used automatically the next time.
Want to set your own Pomodoro intervals? It’s easy. The new interval will appear in the list of presets above the timer — and you can use it until you change the settings again.
Open the Pomodoro settings.
Method 1: click the 
gear icon in the lower-left corner of the timer.
Method 2: go to App Settings → Pomodoro.
You can also use the shortcut ⌘ Cmd + ,, or open the menu: Singularity App → File → Settings.
Enter your preferred durations for work and break periods.
Don’t want to change the current interval but need to adjust the timer slightly? You can do it right on the circular progress bar.
If you don’t want to take a break, just click Stop. The timer will end the break and immediately switch to the next work interval.
If you click Stop during work, the current interval will reset and start over.
