Description from store
Lofidoro is a Pomodoro technique timer assistant which also streams lo-fi music from Youtube.
The Google Chrome extension opens a window with the Pomodoro assistant and a lo-fi music Youtube stream embedded. From there, the user can:
1. Pause and resume the timer and music.
2. Customize the number of minutes allocated to the work and break time intervals.
The extension also shows the user:
1. A timer which shows how long the current interval will last
2. How many Pomodoros they've completed in their session. (1 Pomodoro is 1 cycle of work and break)
3. A progress bar which goes along with the timer, showing the elapsed time against the time until the next interval.
4. The embedded Youtube video stream.
The extension can also be toggled to send a notification and/or play a sound to the user when a work/break period is starting.
The main defining feature behind the Lofidoro assistant is that it livestreams music from Youtube. The user only has to click an icon on the top bar of their chrome browser. Automatically, music will start to play and a Pomodoro timer will allow the user to immediately start working.

- (2024-09-25) Drew Brown: I love using the Pomodoro study method, I have used it for a while now, but I always had to have a lot of tabs and apps open for music, and for the timer. I used "Lofi Girl's" study music, and this extension has just that! I have two critiques: 1. "Lofidoro" would have a cleaner look if the logo was able to follow down to the task bar in windows. It just looks like a piece of paper with a bent corner at the top right, not a clean look. 2. "Lofidoro" would be awesome if it was able to have some options for the type of study music. Like "Lofi Girl" Synthwave Radio, "Greenred Productions - Relaxing Music's" "Productivity Music: Work Music for Concentration | ADHD Relief Music", or some of "Chill Music Lab's" stuff. A better variety will pull a bigger audience.

- (2024-01-18) James F. Dobrow: Great idea. A major problem for me is that break timer stops if the pop up window is minimized. So you have to keep the pop up window open and visible for this extension to work. Please revise so that break timer continues to count when the pop up is minimized (like it does for the work timer). Otherwise, it's 5 star. Thanks.

- (2022-04-07) Caylee Grey: I freaking love this extension. You can choose how long to make your work and break length. It plays the Lofi stream from YouTube while you work, and has silence while you take a break. The break notification is very unobtusive. It keeps track of the number of pomodoros you have completed, but as soon as the popup is closed, it resets. Occassionally, it loses connection with the YouTube stream and you have to reopen.

Now, I have the motivation and the focus to do my work in healthy quantities. Now, I am a multimillionaire living in Santa Monica. Thanks, Jonathan, for this amazing application.
