Our take

A simple focus/rest routine without a timer subscription

Softomato suits someone who wants a straightforward focus timer with a gentle presentation. Its free tier includes the complete focus/short-break/long-break cycle, basic themes and sounds, Lock Screen activity and weekly statistics. The one-time upgrade expands appearance and sound choices.

Keep in mind: Alert delivery, background behavior and the accuracy of recorded focus sessions were not tested.

Choose a rhythm you can repeat

Start with one manageable focus interval followed by its break. Pick a free theme and sound that help you recognize the phase without becoming another distraction.

Keep the upgrade in proportion
