Pomodoro Timer

Run repeated work and break cycles, starting with the familiar 25-minute work and 5-minute break pattern or your own durations.

Repeated work and break cycles

The standard starting pattern is 25 minutes of work followed by a 5-minute break. You can change work, break, long-break, and cycle settings while keeping the current phase and cycle count visible. The method structures time but does not guarantee productivity.

Use the Focus Session Timer for one planned block, the Study Timer for a fixed study countdown, the Study Stopwatch for open-ended tracking, or the Break Timer for a standalone rest.

Build the work and break cycle

Set Work, Break, and Cycles before starting. Each cycle begins with a work phase. A short break follows completed work phases. When a long break is enabled, its configured interval and duration replace the short break at that point.

With Work at 25 minutes, Break at 5 minutes, and Cycles at 4, the timer runs four work periods. Next moves to the following phase immediately. Auto starts a new phase without another press; with Auto off, the next phase waits in a ready state.

Changes and completion

Pause preserves the active phase and its remaining time. Reset returns to the first work phase using the current settings. Sound marks phase changes when enabled. Keep the page open because background throttling or device sleep can delay a transition or cue. The active cycle is not restored after refresh.
