Frequently asked questions
What is the Pomodoro Technique?
A time-management method by Francesco Cirillo: work in focused 25-minute intervals ("pomodoros") separated by 5-minute breaks, with a longer 15–30 minute break after four intervals. The fixed rhythm makes starting easier and limits burnout.
Why 25 minutes?
It is long enough to get real work done but short enough that starting doesn’t feel daunting, and the visible countdown discourages mid-task distractions. It is a convention, not a law — many people adjust to 50/10 for deep work.
What should I do during the breaks?
Step away from the task: stand up, stretch, get water, look away from the screen. The point is to let your attention recover — checking email or social media tends to pull you into a new task instead of resting.
Does the timer keep running if I switch tabs?
Yes, the countdown continues in the background while the tab stays open. Keep the tab open (or the sound on) so you hear the alert when a session or break ends.
