Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Pomodoro Technique?

Developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s, the Pomodoro Technique divides work into 25-minute focused sessions (called Pomodoros) separated by 5-minute breaks. After four Pomodoros, you take a longer 15–30 minute break.

Can I change the work and break durations?

Yes — open Settings to customise the focus session length, short break length, long break length, and how many sessions before a long break.

Does it make a sound between sessions?

Yes. A chime plays at the end of each session and break to prompt you to switch modes.

Why is it called a Pomodoro?

The word is Italian for tomato. The technique's creator used a tomato-shaped kitchen timer when he developed the method as a university student.

Does the timer keep running if I switch tabs?

Yes. It tracks real wall-clock time, so the session continues accurately even if you minimise the browser.

Is the Pomodoro Timer free?

Yes — completely free, no sign-up, no download. Works on any smartphone, tablet, or computer.
