How to use this tool
Set your desired work and break durations, press Start and focus until the timer reaches zero. The next session is suggested automatically, and your completed focus count stays visible.
Quick steps
- Choose your focus and break lengths in minutes.
- Press Start and concentrate until the countdown finishes.
- Use the suggested break, pause or reset whenever you need to.
Practical tip
Traditional Pomodoro cycles use about 25 minutes of work and 5 minutes of rest, but you can adjust the settings to your concentration and tasks. Keep the tab open during a session.
Common questions
Will my timer keep going when I switch tabs?
Yes, elapsed time is calculated from the clock rather than assuming perfectly timed intervals, although a device going to sleep can affect reminders.
Does the timer record my personal tasks?
No. The timer operates locally and does not collect or upload your task descriptions.
Can I use custom work and break durations?
Yes. Set your preferred focus, short break and long break lengths before starting.
