Summary
Pomodoist is a task manager with a Pomodoro focus timer, offered as an open-source alternative to Todoist. Planning tools include an inbox, upcoming tasks, projects, timeline and kanban views, a priority matrix, filters, search, quick-add parsing, task breakdown and CSV import. Focus sessions combine a timer with tracking, configurable breaks and local sounds. Voice input can create tasks and identify dates, projects and tags. Teams can share projects, assign tasks and review activity history. Optional integrations include Google Calendar, Telegram Mini-App, Apple Watch and widgets. It is open source under the AGPL-3.0-only license, and can also be self-hosted with its own accounts, database and integration credentials. The free plan includes tasks, projects, labels, a timer and productivity reports; completed and deleted task history is kept for 90 days. Pro costs $29.99 per year and includes task history without that limit. Listed platforms include macOS, iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, Windows, Linux, web, Telegram and a Chrome extension in beta; Android is planned for October 2026.
