A focus timer in the Pomodoro way

Press Start to focus for 25 minutes. A break follows, and a long one after four sessions.

Focus

25:00

Keeps exact time when you switch tabs, and says if it ended while you were away. Keep this page open for the sound, especially on a phone, where browsers may pause a page in the background.

How it works and help
Sounds are made in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere. A running timer is kept only for this tab, so a reload carries on.

A little help along the way

Follow these steps. Every option is explained underneath. Everything runs in your browser; nothing is sent anywhere.

  3. Press StartThe sound is set when you press Start. Pause, carry on, add a minute or reset at any time.
  4. Hear it endIt rings at the end and says when it finished, even if you looked away.

Questions people ask

What are the Pomodoro lengths?
Francesco Cirillo's book gives 25 minutes of work and a short break of 3 to 5 minutes, with a longer break of 15 to 30 minutes after every four. The timer starts at 25, 5 and 15, all changeable.
What does Void do?
The technique says a session that is interrupted for good does not count. Void ends it without counting it, and the page says how many you voided.
Can it play background noise?
Yes: white, pink or brown noise under More options, made in your browser and played only while a focus session runs.
