How does the Pomodoro Timer work? ▾
The Pomodoro technique splits work into focused intervals (default: 25 min) with short breaks (default: 5 min) in between. After completing all rounds, you earn a longer break. Our Pomodoro tab automates the full cycle and lets you customize work time, break time, and number of rounds.
What alarm sounds are available? ▾
Bell, Beep, Chime, and Silent. All sounds are generated programmatically using the Web Audio API — no audio files are downloaded. Silent mode is ideal for meditation or when you need only a visual cue.
How do I set up the Interval Timer? ▾
Switch to the Interval tab, click "+ Add interval" to create named intervals (e.g., "Sprint" for 40 sec, "Rest" for 20 sec), set the number of rounds, and press Start. The timer automatically advances through each interval and round, playing an alert at every transition.
