Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Pomodoro Technique?
The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method using 25-minute focused work sessions ("pomodoros") followed by 5-minute breaks. After 4 pomodoros, take a longer 15-30 minute break.
Why 25 minutes?
Research suggests 25 minutes is optimal for sustained focus without mental fatigue. It is long enough to make progress but short enough to maintain concentration. You can customize the duration if needed.
Does the timer work in the background?
Yes, the timer continues running even if you switch tabs or minimize the browser. You will receive a notification when the session ends (if notifications are enabled).
