Frequently asked questions
The Pomodoro Technique is a time-management method that breaks work into focused sessions — traditionally 25 minutes — separated by short breaks. After several work sessions you take a longer break. The idea is that short, timed bursts of focus are easier to sustain than open-ended work, and the regular breaks help you recover.
Yes. The 25/5/15-minute defaults follow the classic technique, but you can set any work, short-break, and long-break length from 1 to 180 minutes, and choose how many work sessions happen before a long break. The timer adapts to whatever schedule suits you.
The countdown keeps running while the page is open, including in a background tab, and plays a chime when each session ends. Browsers may slow timers in inactive tabs to save power, so the second-by-second display can lag slightly until you return — but the session and break structure stays intact.
No. The timer runs entirely in your browser. Your durations and progress are not uploaded to any server, there is no account, and nothing is stored after you close the page.
