Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Pomodoro Technique?
It is a time management method where you work in focused 25-minute intervals (called "pomodoros") separated by 5-minute breaks. After four pomodoros, take a longer 15-30 minute break.
Can I change the timer duration?
This tool uses the standard 25/5 minute intervals. The classic Pomodoro durations are recommended for optimal focus.
Does it play a sound when the timer ends?
No. The timer transitions between work and break phases visually. The phase indicator and progress bar change to show the current state.
Does the timer continue if I switch tabs?
Yes. The timer continues running in the background as long as the tab is open.
