Pomodoro Timer

When to use?

Use it when focus drops during study or work, or to manage work time systematically. The Pomodoro technique of 25 minutes focus then 5 minutes rest helps boost productivity.

How to use

• Set the focus and break times (default: 25/5 min).
• Press start to begin a focus session.
• It switches to a break session automatically after 25 minutes.
• Repeat the cycle to work through tasks.

Input Explanation

Adjust the focus and short-break times in minutes. You can also set a long break after four cycles.

Calculation Basis

It schedules 25-minute focus and 5-minute break with a millisecond timer and renders progress in real time as a ring or text.

Usage Examples

• Focused work sessions - Repeat 25 min focus + 5 min break cycles to boost productivity.

Cautions
