I love productivity apps, especially those ones focused on achieving goals. I made one by myself back in the days. What is the Pomodoro technique about tho? Is is something that force you to take a break after 30min or so? I think it should be also explained in your description because not everyone is familiar with it ;) congrats on the launch!

Thank you for your feedback and advice!
Yes, you're right.
The pomodoro technique
* uses a timer to break the working time (pomodoro) into intervals (~25 minutes),
* separated by short breaks (~5 minutes),
* and after a few pomodoro you need to take a long break (~15 minutes).
During the pomodoro, you can't be distracted or change the task.
But the exact duration and number of pomodoros before a long break are configurable.
The basic idea is that people work more efficiently when they only do one task at a time and don't forget to rest, than when they try to solve all the problems at once, constantly interrupting to switch between processes.
Initially, I've released this mix of todo list & pomodoro timer to learn Swift & SwiftUI as well as using the pomodoro technique more often.
But due to the fact that some goals are very similar for more people, I came up with the idea to create several ready-made plans.
To inspire users to achieve long-term or difficult goals, I have also added motivational quotes to this app.
