Frequently asked questions
What is the Pomodoro Technique?
It's a time management method using focused work intervals separated by short breaks, with a longer break after a set number of cycles. See our full guide on the Pomodoro Technique.
Does the timer keep running if I switch tabs?
Yes, as long as this browser tab stays open — the countdown continues in the background and the tab title updates to show the remaining time.
Can I change the lengths mid-session?
Yes — pause first, adjust the fields, then press Start again to apply the new settings to the current phase.
Is there a sound when a session ends?
This version updates the display and browser tab title when a phase changes. Keep an eye on the tab, or check back periodically during longer focus sessions.
What's a good focus length to start with?
25 minutes is the traditional default and works well for most people. See our guide on how long you should actually study each day for broader session planning.
