Pomodoro Timer

About the Pomodoro Timer

The Pomodoro Technique beats procrastination by breaking work into focused 25-minute sprints with short breaks — because committing to just 25 minutes is far easier than facing a huge task. It is a simple method with a big payoff for focus.

This Pomodoro Timer runs customisable work and break intervals with session tracking, so you can work in focused bursts and see how much you get done.

How to use the Pomodoro Timer

1. Set your work and break interval lengths (or use the defaults).
2. Start the timer and focus on one task.
3. Take a short break when it rings.
4. Repeat, with a longer break after four sessions.

How the Pomodoro Timer works

These tools implement well-established productivity methods — such as the Pomodoro Technique for focused work, structured to-do and planning workflows, and habit and goal tracking. Where a tool saves your data, it uses your browser's local storage, so your notes, tasks and progress stay on your own device and are there when you return.

Tips & best practices

• Pick one task per Pomodoro and protect it — note any distraction to deal with in the break rather than acting on it.
• Use breaks to move and rest your eyes, not to scroll, so you return genuinely refreshed.
• Counting completed Pomodoros builds a realistic sense of how long tasks actually take.

Standards & accuracy

Built on proven productivity methods (such as the Pomodoro Technique) with data stored privately in your browser.

Because data is stored locally in your browser, it is private but tied to that device and browser — clearing your browser data will remove it, so export anything important.
