Privacy
Pomodoro is local-first. There is no account, no cloud sync, and no telemetry built into the app.
What is stored
| Data | Where | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Settings | App data dir, JSON store | Durations, toggles, accent |
| Tasks / todos | App data dir, JSON store | Titles, completion, pomodoro counts, active task |
| Session history | App data dir, SQLite (pomodoro.db) | Phase outcomes for stats and the Sessions sheet |
Exact paths depend on the OS (Tauri app data directory for the bundle identifier com.pomodoro.app).
What is not collected
- No sign-in
- No analytics or crash reporting service
- No network requirement for core timer features
- No automatic upload of tasks or history
Notifications and tray use the operating system APIs on your machine only.
Uninstall / wipe
Removing the app does not always delete app data. To wipe local state, delete the application data folder for Pomodoro after quitting the app (location varies by OS).
