FREE ANKI ADD-ON · BY ANKINEER
🍅 Tomatune
Focus music + Pomodoro timer, right inside Anki.
Your music, your timer, your streak and a tomato garden that grows with every focus session. No more phone timers. No more lost focus.
Tomatune = tomato 🍅 (Pomodoro means tomato in Italian) + tune 🎵 (your music).
Focus for 25 minutes, take a 5-minute break, and every focus session becomes one tomato in your garden.

✨ Features
🎵 Focus music
- Plays your own music folder (sub-folders included): mp3, m4a, aac, wav, ogg, opus, flac.
- Shuffle without playing the same song twice in a row, with gentle fade in and fade out.
- Follows your headphones: plug them in and the music moves to them automatically (or choose an output device).
🍅 Pomodoro timer
- Player bar on the home screen and a compact bar during reviews.
- Presets 25/5, 50/10, 90/20: right-click the tomato.
- Finish your card first: when time is up mid-card, the break starts right after you answer.
- No blocking pop-ups: a calm banner and a soft chime.
- Restart a session from 0 (3 times a day): the time already done is not counted.
- Changing a duration during a session applies from the next one. Your past stats never change.
⏸️ Smart auto-pause
- Music pauses when a card plays its own audio (front, back or text-to-speech).
- Away from your reviews for a few minutes? Music and timer pause, and resume when you're back.
- Only time inside Anki counts: leave Anki and the timer waits. When you return, a small banner shows how long you were away.
🌱 Tomato garden, streaks & Jokers
- Every day grows from a sprout 🌱 to a ripe tomato 🍅 when you reach your daily goal, and a golden tomato at 150 % of your goal.
- A day counts for your streak only when your daily goal is reached.
- Jokers 🃏: earn one every 7-day streak (no limit). Spend one on a missed day to save your streak.
- Click any day: pomodoros, focus minutes and cards reviewed.
📸 Shareable recap
- A beautiful image of your week or month: pomodoros, focus time, reviews, streak and goals. Copy it or save it as PNG.
