General
Getting started
What is PomodoroTab?
PomodoroTab is a browser-first pomodoro timer and task manager designed for people who already spend most of their day in Chrome, Edge, Firefox, or any Chromium-based browser. It lives in your new tab page, side panel, or as a dedicated web app at pomodorotab.com/app.
Is PomodoroTab free to use?
Yes. PomodoroTab has a free-forever tier that includes the core timer, task list (up to 5 active tasks), and basic daily stats. Every new install also receives a 7-day trial of Plus features automatically — no credit card required.
Does it work offline?
Yes. The extension and web app are designed to work without an internet connection. Your tasks and timer run locally in your browser, so a dropped connection will never interrupt a session.
Where is my data stored?
Your tasks, settings, and session history are stored locally in your browser's storage. No account is required and your data never leaves your device.
Does PomodoroTab sync across devices?
Tasks and settings are stored locally per browser. To use PomodoroTab on another device, open the web app at pomodorotab.com/app or install the extension and, if you have Plus, redeem your license key on the new device to re-enable Plus features.
Plus & Billing
Plus & billing
What is PomodoroTab Plus?
Plus is a one-time upgrade that unlocks Zen Mode, extended session history, productivity charts, unlimited tasks, and additional customization options like custom timer lengths.
How do I upgrade to Plus?
You can upgrade from within the extension or web app by clicking the three-dot menu icon and selecting 'Get PomodoroTab+'. Payments are processed securely through DodoPayments.
Can I use my license on multiple devices?
Yes. Your Plus license key works on any browser or device where you use PomodoroTab. Simply enter your key in the settings menu on each device.
Where is my license key?
Your license key is in the confirmation email you received after purchase. You can also find it inside the DodoPayments client portal. Need step-by-step help activating it? See the redeem guide at pomodorotab.com/guides/redeem-license-key.
Will I lose my data if I stop using Plus?
No. Your locally stored tasks and session history remain in your browser. You simply revert to free tier features — your data is never deleted.
Do you offer refunds?
We review refund requests on a case-by-case basis. If you believe you were charged in error or had a technical issue, contact us within 7 days of the charge and we will sort it out.
Usage & Tips
How to use
Which browsers are supported?
PomodoroTab is available for Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Firefox, and any Chromium-based browser. You can also use the web app at pomodorotab.com/app without installing anything.
How do I use the side panel?
In Chrome and Edge, right-click the PomodoroTab icon in the toolbar and select 'Open side panel'. This keeps your timer and task list visible alongside whatever page you're working on. You can also toggle it from the extension settings menu.
Why is the timer in my tab title?
The tab title updates with a live countdown so you can check remaining time with a quick glance at the tab bar — no tab switching needed. You can disable this in Settings if you prefer.
How do I enable desktop notifications?
Go to Settings inside PomodoroTab and toggle on session alerts. Your browser will prompt you to allow notifications the first time. Once enabled, you'll get an alert when each session or break ends.
Can I use PomodoroTab as a standalone web app?
Yes. In addition to the browser extension, you can access the full experience at pomodorotab.com/app. It works just like the extension but in a standard browser tab — useful if you are on a shared or managed computer.
Want to go deeper?
The guides cover the Pomodoro Technique in detail, best practices for study sessions, and how to get the most out of the browser extension.
