Pomodoro Timer
The classic 25-minute focus / 5-minute break cycle — fully customizable, with automatic phase switching, an alarm sound, and a session counter.
How the Pomodoro Technique works
Work in short, focused bursts (25 minutes by default) separated by a 5-minute break. After every 4 focus sessions, take a longer 15-minute break to recover. This timer automates the whole cycle: when a phase ends, it plays a chime and moves straight into the next phase automatically, so you never have to touch the mouse mid-session. Adjust the focus, short-break, and long-break lengths above if 25/5/15 doesn't fit your workflow — some people prefer 50/10 for deep work, or 15/3 for ADHD-friendly sprints.
