- Rated 1 out of 5by darkocean, 7 months agoArrrg! Even after waiting for the timer to go down it doesn't let you use the blocked sites. Have to uninstall this.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Boots, 2 years agoThis is a great add-on, it works well and looks nice. There is just some functionality I would like the developers to consider:
- The possibility to pause and resume the timer.
- To provide a setting for enabling or disabling next timer auto-start.
- A counter for completed pomodoros per session or per day.
Thanks for this great add-on. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17016848, 3 years agoYou can set the working time and break time by yourself, which is brilliant
- Rated 4 out of 5by David García, 4 years agoI've tried this extension and it works like a charm. However, I uninstalled it because I'm not comfortable with giving the permission to access all data. It's been mentioned by the author(s) in another review reply that this is needed in order to read URLs and block pages. Is this still the case though? Don't you get all the data you need with the activeTab permission alone?

- Rated 4 out of 5by Ellie, 4 years agoThis addon is pretty useful, it would be PERFECT if there'd be the chance to set some sounds who notifies you when the timer changes (I sometimes totally miss the onscreen notify!) Thank you so much for your hard work!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Aeternus Atterratio, 5 years agoWebsites blocking its killer feature!
Can you please add features continue work on rest time.
And feature block FF Extentions Pages(if its posible), they look like standart web pages, but not block by Tomato. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15047163, 5 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13397896, 5 years agoI love this add-on because it is the best away to stay focused while surfing on the internet. Nonetheless, I have noticed that twitter is somehow avoiding the blockade. Beside that complaint, it is an amazing piece of software
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13458891, 6 years agothank you. this is definately what i wanted which is leech block+pomodoro timer, except that it's kinda ugly...
+i want alarm sound if possible. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13230603, 6 years agoYour addon requires all data from all websites, it´s ridiculous and I reported it to Mozilla.
Developer response
posted 6 years agoIt requires access to read the data from all websites in order to be able to read the URLs you are accessing and redirect you to the block page if necessary. It does not do anything else with the data. There is no finer granularity permission available to only see the URL. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13317587, 6 years agoit will be nice if i could stop the timer, but, this is the best pomodoro timer i ever used in firefox!
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14358095, 6 years agoThe best (only?) distraction blocking tomato timer. There are other tomato timers on the store, but this is the only one that blocks sites for the duration.
Features that would make it better:
A pause tomato/skip break button.
The ability to add more than one blocked site at a time - Rated 4 out of 5by tikend, 7 years agoGreat extentions, there are some thins that could be improved, such as
Wont redirect to page after work period
Wont auto block page when work period starts
Missing easy action to add site to blacklist from menu
Notification is barely visible, could add audio notice - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13963950, 7 years agoThe website blocking works perfectly and configuring settings is easy. My only complaint is the notification feature: a popup appears on the bottom right corner to tell you when to break or when to start working, but I don't always notice it. If I look away from the computer, I miss the popup and work through my breaks. If it made a noise, this extension would be 5-star worthy.
