The Pomodoro Technique breaks work into focused 25 minute blocks with short breaks in between. It makes starting easier and helps you notice how much you get done.
This timer runs one pomodoro at a time. Name the task, press enter, work until the chime, then take five minutes away from the screen before the next one.
How it works
- Write the one thing you want to finish.
- Set the length and pick a sound: lofi, focus music, nature, white noise or silence.
- Press enter. The scene opens, the music starts and the timer counts down.
