Shrimpodoro
A pomodoro timer for your body
Your pomodoro breaks are making you tired.
Five minutes of scrolling turns into forty, and you come back curled up like a shrimp. Shrimpodoro locks your next pomodoro until you squat: 10 by default, or pick 5 or 20. About a minute. Less tired, better mood.
Free · Unlimited pomodoros · iPhone, iOS 17+
This is you after 3 pomodoros.
Your brain gets work done. Your body curls up. Scrolling doesn’t fix either.
Squat your way up Everest.
Every squat lifts you one meter. Pass a landmark, earn its badge: 17 around the world, from a little house to Everest (8,849 m), plus 3 from your own city.
Share your climb as a video, with a QR code so friends can try it.
Every pomodoro drops a tomato.
Pink if you squat. Black if you skip or give up.
Focus, curl up, squat, repeat.

Before you ask
What is Shrimpodoro?
Shrimpodoro is a pomodoro timer for iPhone. After each focus session, the next pomodoro stays locked until you do a set of squats (5, 10 or 20). Your iPhone's front camera counts the squats on-device. Finished rounds drop pink tomatoes into a pile; skipped rounds drop black ones.
What if I can’t squat right now?
Skip it. That round becomes a black tomato, and your next pomodoro starts.
Is my camera recording me?
No. Squats are counted on your phone and the video never leaves it.
Can I change the length or the number of squats?
Yes. Tap the timer to set any length from 5 to 120 minutes (25 by default), and pick 5, 10 or 20 squats per break.
Is it free?
Yes. Pomodoros are free and unlimited, and so are all 38 landmark badges. Shrimpodoro Pro adds month and year reports, focus insights, the big and Lock Screen widgets, and shares without a watermark: $3.99/month, $17.99/year, or a one-time lifetime purchase.
Do I need an account?
No. There's no sign-up. Your pomodoros and squats are stored on your iPhone.
Does it work on iPad, Mac or Android?
It's iPhone-only at launch (iOS 17 or later), with a Dynamic Island and Lock Screen timer. A Mac version is planned.
Where can I download it?
Shrimpodoro is on the App Store now. It’s free to download and runs on iPhone with iOS 17 or later.
Stop being a shrimp.
