Pomodoro Timer: Boost Focus & Productivity

Master your workflow with our privacy-first, browser-based Pomodoro Timer. Designed to help you stay focused and prevent burnout using the scientifically proven timeboxing methodology.

What is the Pomodoro Technique?

Developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s, the Pomodoro Technique uses a timer to break down work into intervals, traditionally 25 minutes in length, separated by short breaks. This method trains your brain to focus for short periods and helps you stay on top of deadlines or constantly-refilling inboxes.

The Core Cycle

  1. Pomodoro (25 min): Choose a task and work on it with zero distractions.
  2. Short Break (5 min): When the timer rings, stop working. Stretch, grab a coffee, or just breathe.
  3. Repeat: Do this 4 times.
  4. Long Break (15-30 min): After four "Pomodoros," take a longer restorative break.

Tips for Maximum Efficiency

Single-Tasking is Key

Multitasking is a myth that kills productivity. During the 25-minute block, commit to one single task. If a distracting thought pops up, write it down on a piece of paper and get back to work immediately.

Respect the Bell

When the timer rings, force yourself to take a break even if you are "in the zone." The scheduled breaks are crucial for mental recovery, allowing you to sustain high performance throughout the entire day rather than burning out by noon.

Customize Your Environment

While this tool manages your time, you must manage your space. Use noise-cancelling headphones or find a quiet corner to make the most of your 25-minute sprints.
