Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Pomodoro Technique?

The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s. It uses a timer to break work into 25-minute intervals separated by short breaks.

Why 25 minutes?

Research shows that 25 minutes is an optimal duration for maintaining high focus while avoiding mental fatigue. You can adjust this based on your preferences.

What should I do during breaks?

Stand up, stretch, grab water, or do something completely unrelated to work. Avoid checking emails or social media to give your brain a real rest.

Will it work if I switch browser tabs?

Yes! The Pomodoro timer continues running in the background even when you switch tabs or minimize the browser.

Can I customize the timer durations?

The current version uses the standard 25/5/15 minute intervals. We plan to add customization options in future updates.
