Pomodoro Timer

The Pomodoro Technique is a time-management method created by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s. You work in 25-minute focused sessions (each called a "pomodoro"), separated by 5-minute breaks. After four pomodoros, you take a longer break of 15–30 minutes.

The classic length is 25 minutes of focus plus a 5-minute break. However, the ideal length varies by person and task — some people work best with 50/10 cycles. This timer lets you adjust the focus length from 5 to 60 minutes.

Stand up, stretch, look away from the screen, drink water, or take a short walk. Avoid starting another task or scrolling social media — the goal is to genuinely rest your attention before the next focus session.

Ideally no — the technique's power comes from protected, uninterrupted focus. If you are truly interrupted, the traditional advice is to end that pomodoro and start over. You can use the Skip button to move to the next phase when needed.
