Changelog

We polished the Turkish interface, blog, categories and SEO copy for a more natural and consistent experience.

Create visual themes with safe commands, live preview, import and export.

Customize buttons, cards, backgrounds, borders, transparency, fonts and shadows.

Connect your calendar to sync tasks from your Notebook.

The main screen and Personalization now adapt better to narrow windows and mobile.

Simple Mode and /simple now use the same timer, statistics, XP, coins and streaks as the main app.

Customize themes, backgrounds, frames and accessories from a dedicated modal, separate from Settings.

Rankings now show profile photos and equipped frames next to each user.

You now receive 1 coin for each daily login and 5 coins on the seventh consecutive day.

We hardened theme, frame and accessory purchases so the category is validated correctly and inventories cannot become inconsistent.

Mark your doubts with ❓ while you study and hit Review: the AI answers them right inside your notebook, using your notes as context. Daily quota: 3 free queries, 20 with Plus and 100 with Plus Max.

We closed every path that could lose text: a local backup that survives sudden closes, version history with a snapshot before any restore, and comfortable one-finger editing from your phone browser.

Introducing the Focus Workspace: a Notion-style notebook inside PomoDomate to organize your projects, take notes and link your tasks, all synced to the cloud and connected to your timer. It's in Beta for Plus members and opens to everyone on August 15 (2 free projects, 5 for Plus).

The notebook supports real markdown: headings, lists, checkboxes you tick with a click, links and tables. Get started fast with ready-made templates (My Subscriptions, Class Schedule, Project Plan), and if you'd rather draw, switch to the Whiteboard to write by hand with mouse, finger or a tablet pen.

Idea in the middle of a pomodoro? Hit the quick-note button (or Ctrl+Shift+N) from anywhere in the app, jot it down and stay focused: the note saves itself to your notebook.

The Android app now speaks the same 9 languages as the web, with weekly challenges fully translated and several bug fixes. If you already have it installed, update it to get all the fixes.

Be among the first to try it: head to the Events section and follow the instructions to download it. Take your pomodoros, coins and streaks with you everywhere.

We welcome Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia), Vietnamese (Tiếng Việt) and Hindi (हिन्दी). And not just the landing page: the whole app —timer, shop, settings, profile, events— is 100% translated in all 9 languages. Switch languages from the sidebar or Settings.

The entire productivity blog is now natively written in all 9 languages: 819 articles in total. Guides on the Pomodoro Technique, focus, studying and well-being — no more English articles when your language is set to something else.

After your first pomodoros we'll ask what you think of PomoDomate: a star rating and an optional message that we personally read. It's the most direct way to shape what we build next.

We rebuilt how pages are served: they're now delivered from a global server network (CDN) instead of being generated on every visit. The result: near-instant loads worldwide and a more stable site.

Deep server-side security hardening: your coins, gems and progress can only change through the game's legitimate paths. We also thoroughly verified the shop economy and the guest progress migration.

The Notifications and Privacy sections in Settings are now reachable from the menu (they existed but couldn't be accessed); strings that showed up in Spanish in other languages are now translated; multilingual SEO improvements (complete hreflang).

The Lifetime plan is here: pay $40 once and you're Plus forever. The monthly plan ($5) now includes a 14-day free trial for new accounts. And you can now buy Gems directly in the shop: packs of 30 ($2.99), 70 ($5.99) and 130 ($9.99). The monthly Plus drip is adjusted to 25 💎 to balance the economy.

Domate skins and accessories can be bought anytime, but they can only be equipped once you reach the Adult Tomato (level 30) — your pet gets customized when it reaches its final form, as it always promised.

We launched the PomoDomate vs Pomofocus vs Forest comparison and ready-to-use 25, 45 and 60 minute timers with alarm, no sign-up needed — all in 6 languages.

Easier-to-tap buttons (closing modals, notifications), tables that no longer need horizontal scrolling, more readable text, no unexpected zoom when typing on iOS, and better notch support.

Fixed: couldn't return to the timer from the menu in French/Japanese; the greeting briefly showed your email instead of your username; the Welcome challenge now lives in the Events section (no longer taking up the main screen); blog refreshed for 2026.

From now on, web updates will be smaller and more periodic: the team is focusing on developing and polishing the Android mobile app, which will receive big updates very soon. The web will keep getting maintenance and targeted improvements.

All legendary themes (Synthwave, Cyberpunk, Matrix, Galaxy, Midnight and the Gem Collection) are now bought only with Gems (100 💎). Plus no longer unlocks them for free, but as a subscriber you get 25 gems every month. If you already owned one, you keep it.

Tried the app without an account? You no longer lose your progress: when you create your account we migrate your pomodoros and coins automatically.

Your avatar (and its frame) now appears in the timer header, not just on your profile. We also polished the frames so they stand out better against any photo.

We fixed a bug where some themes showed a different price than the one charged, and others couldn't be purchased at all.

We fixed hundreds of texts that were showing in Spanish for German and Portuguese users.

You now reach Expert level from 60 pomodoros, and the level you see matches your challenges' difficulty.

Performance optimizations in the timer and security hardening behind the scenes.

We redesigned every theme so each one feels unique. They're now organized by rarity — Common, Epic and Legendary — both in the Shop and in Personalization.

All three modes (focus, short break and long break) now take their colors from your theme instead of a fixed red and green. Every theme paints the timer its own way.

Sakura, Coffee, Nord, Dracula and Gruvbox get their own typography, a premium finish and living details: cherry blossoms, coffee beans, snow with northern lights, bats and more.

Synthwave, Matrix, Cyberpunk, Galaxy, Midnight and Beta Tester bring next-level animated backdrops: digital code rain, neon circuits, breathing nebulae, a starfield and a themed play button.

We fixed a bug where several dark themes looked purple. Now each one shows its true color (Nord in frost blue, Matrix in green, Gruvbox in orange…).

We removed the Backgrounds section — each theme now brings its own. Anyone who had purchased backgrounds was refunded their coins.

We redesigned the whole app with a cleaner, more modern interface while keeping the colors you know. Better use of space and a refreshed look across every screen.

The sidebar now switches content instantly without reloading the page, and the timer keeps running as you navigate. Each section has its own link and the browser back button works.

Active events now have their own section in the menu, with rewards and the referral program in one place.

New notification bell: it alerts you about unclaimed rewards, your streak at risk, and the week's new challenges.

Added personalized insights (your most productive day, comparison vs last week) and a progress bar toward your next milestone.

Open your profile by tapping your avatar in the top right. The sidebar is now cleaner.

We redesigned the Shop, Settings, Statistics, Challenges, and Rankings with a warmer, more playful style: big cards, coin chips, and a rounded typeface. Colors still come from your theme.

The pet comes alive: it jumps and celebrates when you finish a pomodoro or level up, has moods based on your activity, and responds when you pet it.

For Plus users: smart insights (your peak hour, streak at risk), personal records (best day, best week, peak hour), a projection toward your next milestone with a suggested daily goal, and a custom date range picker.

New highlighted podium for the top 3 with a crown, your own position highlighted in the list, and each country's flag in the international ranking.

Pomodomate is now available in French and Japanese, on top of Spanish, English, Portuguese and German. The whole app and the full blog (41 articles) are translated.

We improved how achievement and challenge coins are granted: they now always credit correctly and consistently, including the weekly bonus for completing all 3 challenges.

We hardened the protection of the coins and rewards system to keep the game's economy fair, and fixed several internal bugs for a more stable experience.

Pomodomate is now available in German (Deutsch). Switch from the language selector in the top bar. Welcome, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland!

New notes section built into the app. Now you can take quick notes during your Pomodoro sessions without leaving the app.

Fixed weekly challenge metrics: weekly streak now correctly counts active days, focus marathon detects the maximum pomodoros in a single day, and early bird counts pomodoros before noon.

Added abuse protection to key endpoints: account registration, account deletion, purchase verification, and payment webhooks.

Completed 100% of the Brazilian Portuguese translation. All challenge texts and interface strings are now fully translated.

Fixed an issue that prevented rankings from updating automatically. Rankings now refresh reliably every hour and also when you visit the page.

Cancelling your PLUS subscription now properly processes with the payment provider. Also, if you cancel, you keep access until the end of your paid period.

Fixed an issue where some users were stuck on an infinite loading spinner when signing in with Google.

The Pomodomate mobile app is nearly ready for launch with all core features: timer, stats, profile, rankings, challenges, and shop.

Fixed over 25 hardcoded texts — the entire app is now fully translated to English, Spanish and Portuguese.

Improved raffle function security, removed over 40 unsafe type casts, and migrated all dev logs so they don't appear in production.

You can now see links to Terms of Service and Privacy Policy directly in the registration form.

Fixed division by zero in progress bars, Portuguese language detection, silent error handling, and many other small bugs.

We've launched a new raffle system! Buy tickets with your coins (120 coins = 1 ticket) and enter the monthly raffle. Tickets never expire and you can accumulate several to increase your chances. First raffle will be in May 2026.

We've adjusted shop prices to be more accessible. Now you can personalize your experience without needing weeks of saving.

Updated our privacy policy to comply with Google Play Store and GDPR requirements. It's now clearer and more transparent about how we use your data.

Fixed the password recovery flow. It now works correctly across all browsers and devices.

Fixed a critical issue where weekly challenges didn't show progress in real-time. The error occurred because sessions were saved after calculating progress. Now it works perfectly and you'll see your progress updated immediately.

Fixed a severe bug where all historical statistics appeared as 'today'. The problem was that we were using fields that didn't exist in the database (session.date, session.timestamp). Now all your statistics show correct dates using session.startedAt.

Fixed a critical timezone bug that caused streaks to be lost even though you had completed pomodoros. The problem was an incorrect UTC to local time conversion. Now your streak is maintained correctly.

Completely migrated to UTC for streaks and weekly challenges. Now all users worldwide have the same reset time. Weekly challenges reset on Mondays at 00:00 UTC and daily streaks at UTC midnight.

Added subtle indicators in the right panel showing when your day and week reset in your local timezone. For example: '⏰ Day resets at 9:00 PM' or '📅 Week resets Mon 9:00 PM'.

Increased session limit from 100 to 1000, allowing up to 3 months of history in graphs. Now using actual session duration instead of assuming fixed 25 minutes. Total hours calculations are more accurate.

Added a new card in Advanced Statistics showing your record of consecutive pomodoros completed without stopping. This field was already saved in the database but wasn't displayed. Now you can see your best focus streak.

Removed duplicate functions in different files that caused inconsistencies. Now everything uses the same statistics calculation functions, ensuring consistent data across the application.

The Domate pet now has a fairer progressive level system. Early levels are easier to reach, and difficulty increases gradually. Your Domate evolves from Seed to Sprout, Baby, Young, and finally Adult!

You now earn coins every time you level up. Normal levels give 2-3 coins, and evolution levels (when your Domate changes phase) give special bonuses of 5-10 coins.

Plus users now have access to ALL available themes and backgrounds while their subscription is active. No need to buy them with coins!

The 'Total Hours' and 'Best Day' statistics now save correctly to the database. They used to show 0, now they display your actual data.

Improvements to the Simple Mode page with bug fixes and better user experience.

The Domate experience progress bar is now green with an elegant gradient, more visible and with a better design.

Fixed an issue where Weekly Challenges sometimes wouldn't load until refreshing the page. They now load correctly on login.

Fixed a bug that allowed free users to access advanced statistics. Subscription verification now works correctly.

User level is now calculated consistently throughout the app (profile, rankings, achievements, map). There used to be inconsistencies.

Plus users can now clearly see their status in the sidebar. If you're Plus, you'll see 'You are Plus!' with a crown instead of the upgrade button.

New visual notification system that informs you when you save changes, there are errors, or important actions. Notifications appear briefly and disappear automatically.

You now need to sign in to view your statistics and profile. This allows you to save your progress in the cloud and sync it across all your devices.

We optimized the profile page to load much faster. Data now loads in parallel and there's a safety timeout to prevent infinite loading.

The login/register page now has better styled input fields, with more visible borders and better contrast in both dark and light mode.

We fixed the annoying white flash that appeared when navigating to the authentication page. Now the theme applies instantly without flickering.

When you don't have data in statistics, you'll now see friendlier messages that guide you on how to start your productivity journey.

While modals load, you'll now see a more visual skeleton animation instead of just a spinner, improving the perception of speed.

We fixed an error that appeared in the console when a user was authenticated but didn't have data in the database yet.

We've completely improved how we save your data. Everything is now saved more securely and quickly. Your pomodoros, tasks, achievements, and progress are more protected than ever.

Due to this improvement, old accounts will no longer work. We know this is inconvenient, but it's necessary to offer you a better service. All users who register between November 26 and January 1, 2026 will receive 50 FREE coins as compensation. Just claim them from your profile.

Completely renewed task system with clear limits: users without account can create 3 tasks, free users 5 tasks, and Plus users 10 tasks. Your tasks automatically sync across all your devices.

We implemented a more robust security system. Each user can only see and modify their own data. No one else can access your information, not even us can modify it.

We fixed all navigation issues. Now when you click any button or link, the page changes correctly without needing to manually refresh.

You can now use Pomodomate without internet. Your data is saved locally and automatically syncs when you're back online.
