Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Pomodoro Technique?▾
The Pomodoro Technique breaks work into focused 25-minute sessions separated by short 5-minute breaks. After four sessions you take a longer 15-minute break. It helps maintain concentration and avoid burnout.
Why is a Pomodoro 25 minutes?▾
Twenty-five minutes is long enough to make real progress but short enough to stay fully focused without fatigue. TimerHub follows the traditional 25-minute work, 5-minute short break, and 15-minute long break rhythm.
How many pomodoros should I do per day?▾
Most people do 8 to 12 pomodoros across a workday, taking a longer break after every four. Start with what feels sustainable and build up as focus improves.
Does the Pomodoro timer work in the background?▾
Yes. The timer keeps counting if you switch tabs, and it plays an alarm plus an optional notification when each work or break period ends.
Can I name a task or start the next Pomodoro automatically?▾
Yes. Add an optional task label, turn on Auto-cycle to begin each next work or break phase, or use Focus mode to hide nonessential content. Daily and total completed-session counts are stored locally.
