Not yet — but it's on our roadmap. We can't give an exact timeline, but a mobile app with sync is definitely coming.

Yes. If you purchase a lifetime license now, you'll get the mobile app as soon as it's available — at no extra cost. It's our way of thanking early supporters. Once you're in, you're in forever.

Because that's where most work happens today—inside the browser. Desktop apps used to be the norm, but not anymore.And theres another reason: convenience. For people with ADHD or wandering minds, even opening a separate app can feel like a monumental task. By living in your browser, Otto removes that extra step. No switching apps, no added resistance.

In the free version, you can use the core features like the Pomodoro timer and Web Blocker for free, without restrictions. Upgrading to Otto Pro on the other hand unlocks other features like tasks, workflows, autoblock and analytics. You can also explore these premium features in the free version with limited functionality.

Otto is designed for professionals and creatives who spend much of their time working on a computer. It's especially suited for disorganized creatives, scattered thinkers, or those who feel their focus often wanders. If you aren't then don't worry, you might still like Otto.

In an ideal world, we'd love to give Otto away for free but we live in a world that lives on the exchange of currency. We have expenses, development costs and well, our lives. We're also a bootstrapped business, that means we don't take VC money to make an app like most young startups do. We like to say we're customer funded, this drives us to make a better product that you will pay for and find useful. And we want to keep this sustainable for as long as we can.

We don't offer a traditional free trial, because Otto runs on a freemium model. That means you can already use parts of the Pro features for free—and if you find them helpful, you can upgrade anytime to unlock the full experience.

No. Otto's core features—a Pomodoro timer and website blocker—will always remain free. That's been true since day one, and we have no plans to change it.

We don't know, it might if we decide to add user accounts and a cloud service. But for now, we don't plan on introducing it.

Yes, you keep it for a lifetime.

No, once the license expires you can't use the pro version. However, you will be downgraded to the free version and you can use that.

Yes, please email us within 14 days of purchase. We'll refund you without any questions.

Well in the unlikely case of this happening (since we're independent), if you bought the lifetime plan, we'll give you the entire packed chrome extension so you can run it yourself.

No, we're not in the business of data collection. We respect your privacy and we don't collect any kind of browsing data. We don't snoop and we don't share anything with 3rd parties.
