Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Pomodoro Technique?
Developed by Francesco Cirillo in the 1980s. Work for 25 minutes (one pomodoro), take a 5-minute break, repeat 4 times, then take a longer 15-30 minute break.
Why 25 minutes?
25 minutes was found to be long enough to make meaningful progress but short enough to maintain focus without fatigue. Adjust the duration to what works for you.
Does the timer work if I switch tabs?
Yes — the JavaScript interval keeps running even when the tab is not in focus. The audio alert will sound when a phase ends.
