How it works
- Pomodoro alternates focus and break rounds and counts the round number for you.
- The stopwatch counts up from zero with start, pause and reset.
- Elapsed time comes from your device clock, so switching tabs does not lose time.
Good to know
- The classic split is 25 minutes of focus and 5 of rest; adjust the lengths to your own rhythm.
- The timer is visual only and never rings, so it will not interrupt calls or music.
- Nothing is stored or sent anywhere.

Does it keep time in background tabs?
Elapsed time comes from your device clock, so switching tabs does not lose time; the display refreshes when you return.
