Quick tips

  • Start a focus session and work on one task until the timer ends.
  • Take a short break after each focus session to reset your attention.
  • After several sessions, take a long break to avoid fatigue.

How to use the Focus Timer (Pomodoro)

This Focus Timer follows the Pomodoro Technique: you work in focused intervals and take structured breaks. The goal is to reduce distractions, maintain energy, and produce consistent output without burnout.

Step-by-step workflow

  • Set durations: Choose focus, short break, long break, and how often the long break happens.
  • Start: Click Start and commit to one task during the focus phase.
  • Break: When the phase ends, take the break seriously—stand up, hydrate, and reset.
  • Repeat: After completing the configured number of focus sessions, take a longer break.
  • Track progress: Use cycles completed and total focused minutes to monitor consistency.

Why this timer is useful

  • Better focus: A visible countdown makes it easier to ignore distractions.
  • Reduced fatigue: Planned breaks protect your attention and energy.
  • More consistency: Short, repeatable sessions build sustainable work habits.
  • Clear structure: Ideal for studying, writing, coding, and deep work tasks.

Recommended setups

  • Classic: 25 / 5 / 15 with a long break after 4 focus sessions.
  • Deep work: 50 / 10 / 25 for longer concentration blocks.
  • Light tasks: 15 / 3 / 10 for quick turnaround tasks.

How it works

The timer counts down the current phase and visually shows progress on the ring. When a phase ends, it can automatically switch to the next phase (if auto-switch is enabled). Your settings and cycle stats are saved locally in your browser so you can continue later on the same device.
