Your screen may turn off — keep it awake.
Keys: Space start/pause, R reset, + / − one minute, F focus. Shortcuts work when the timer is focused.
Twenty-five minutes is the length of one pomodoro in the Pomodoro Technique: pick a single task, work on it until the timer rings, then take a five-minute break. After four rounds, take a longer break of 15 to 30 minutes. The draining ring makes progress visible, which helps you resist checking email until the session ends.
Ways to use this timer
- One pomodoro work session on a single task
- Focused study blocks before an exam
- Timeboxing a meeting or brainstorming session
Questions
How does the Pomodoro Technique work?
Work for 25 minutes, take a 5 minute break, and repeat. After four work sessions, take a longer break of 15 to 30 minutes.
What should I do during the five-minute break?
Step away from the screen: stretch, refill your water or look out of a window. Use the 5 minute timer so the break does not stretch out.
