Install the app

Tomato Clock installs straight from your browser. There is no app store, no download, no account, and no permissions to accept. It takes one tap and about two seconds.

If the button does nothing, your browser has already installed the app, or it needs the manual steps below.

Android — Chrome, Edge, Samsung Internet

An Install button appears at the top right of every page. Tap it and confirm. If you do not see it, open the browser menu (three dots) and choose Install app or Add to Home screen.

iPhone and iPad — Safari

Apple does not allow the automatic button, so it takes two taps. Press the Share icon at the bottom of Safari, scroll down, and choose Add to Home Screen. It must be Safari: Chrome on iOS cannot install web apps.

Windows, Mac and Linux — Chrome or Edge

An install icon appears in the address bar, on the right, next to the bookmark star. Click it and confirm. From the menu it is under Cast, save and share or Install this site as an app.

Firefox

Firefox on desktop does not support installing web apps. The site works normally in the browser, and full-screen mode gives you almost the same result: press F on any timer.

What you get by installing it

Its own icon on your home screen or desktop, like any other app.
No browser bars. The clock fills the whole screen.
It works offline. All sixteen pages are stored on your device.
Shortcuts. Long-press the icon to jump straight to the timer or the stopwatch.
No ads in the installed app.
No account and no permissions. Nothing to sign up for, nothing to accept.

Frequently asked questions

Is it really free?

Yes, and there is nothing to unlock. Installing costs nothing and asks for nothing.

How much space does it take?

Under one megabyte. A single photo takes more.

How do I uninstall it?

Like any other app: long-press the icon and choose remove, or uninstall it from your system's app list. On desktop, open the app menu and select uninstall.

Does it update itself?

Yes. The app checks for a newer version each time it opens with a connection, and updates in the background without asking.

Why is it not in the App Store or Google Play?

Because it does not need to be. It installs straight from the browser, which means no store review, no download, and updates that reach you the moment they are published.
