Pomodoro Timer

Scan to open this page
Focus 25:00 Cycle 1

A free Pomodoro focus timer with fully customizable focus/short-break/long-break lengths — no ads, no subscription, no account, unlike apps that lock timer length changes behind a paywall.

How it works

  1. Set your focus, short break, and long break lengths (defaults: 25 / 5 / 15 minutes)
  2. Press Start — the timer counts down and automatically switches phases
  3. A sound plays at each phase change (mutable)

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to pay to change the timer length?

No — focus, short break, and long break lengths, plus how many cycles before a long break, are all free to customize from the start.

Does the countdown stay accurate if I switch tabs?

Yes — the timer calculates remaining time from a fixed end timestamp rather than just counting down every second, so it stays accurate even if the browser throttles the tab in the background.

What is the Pomodoro Technique?

A time-management method: work in focused intervals (traditionally 25 minutes) separated by short breaks, with a longer break after a set number of intervals.

Some Pomodoro apps charge to let you change the timer length. That should never be a paid feature.

Reviewers have flagged apps that lock basic timer-length changes behind a subscription. Ours makes focus, break, and cycle length free to customize from the first use, with a background-tab-accurate countdown.
