Review Summary
Users appreciate the extension's simplicity, reliability, and ability to customize session durations. However, many express frustration that it lacks core Pomodoro features such as automated work/break cycles and preset Pomodoro intervals like 25 minutes. A common request is for improved or functional sound alerts as none or poor audio notifications exist. Some users note minor bugs including the app opening new tabs after sessions and spelling mistakes in messages. Overall, it's seen as a basic timer rather than a full Pomodoro tool.
