About this tool
The timer counts down and plays a short tone when time is up (turn your volume on). The stopwatch measures to a hundredth of a second, with lap and split times. The pomodoro timer alternates 25-minute focus sessions with 5-minute breaks and a longer break after every fourth session, a technique developed by Francesco Cirillo for steady, focused work.
Time is measured from your device's high-resolution clock rather than by counting ticks, so it stays accurate even if the browser slows the page in a background tab.
Good to know
- The alarm needs sound on and the tab to stay open (closing it stops the timer).
- Some phones pause pages when the screen locks.
