User reviews
I like the UI, but cannot use it as it lacks shortcut keys (start session, stop session, start break, stop break...)

Great add-on for pomodoro. If you want to use it for other types of cycles, depending of which, It may not be as straight forward. Assuming that I didn't miss the option; is not possible to make greater than 59 minute cycles. Meaning that is not directly compatible with the 90 minute rule. There's some workarounds to this, one being setting the cycle to 45m and the break to 30m, doing two 45m cycles, skipping one break and taking the next one; repeating this each time. And remembering when to take the break by each pair number of total cycles. Overall; It's a beautiful, minimalist, and easy-to-use pomodoro timer.
