How to use

What is this tool?
Pomodoro Timer implements the classic Pomodoro Technique: 25 minutes of focused work followed by a 5-minute break, with a longer 15-minute break after every fourth session. All three durations are adjustable, phases switch automatically with a sound, and a counter tracks your completed pomodoros. The timer runs entirely in your browser.
Common uses
- Staying focused while studying for exams
- Breaking a long workday into manageable sprints
- Timeboxing homework or writing sessions
- Fighting procrastination with a concrete, short commitment
FAQ

A time-management method: work in short, fully focused intervals (classically 25 minutes), separated by short breaks, with a longer break after every four intervals.
Can I change the durations?
Yes, focus, short-break and long-break lengths are each adjustable from 1 to 120 minutes.
Does it make a sound when a phase ends?
Yes, a short beep plays at each phase change. Some browsers require you to have interacted with the page first.
Does the timer keep running in a background tab?
Yes, though some browsers throttle background tabs slightly. For exact timing, keep the tab visible.
