Pomodoro Timer

Focus for 25 minutes, then take a 5 minute break — in a calm scene, with rain, lo-fi or café sound underneath.

Scene & sound

Made in your browser, it plays while the timer runs and fades out when the alarm rings. It never autoplays.

Scene motionRain, snow and embers drift on one light canvas. Off makes every scene a still painting.

What is the Pomodoro Technique?

The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method that uses a timer to break work into focused intervals (traditionally 25 minutes) separated by short breaks. After completing four pomodoros, take a longer break to recharge.

Need longer runs? Deep Work uses 50/10 for writing and code, and the study timer keeps a 25/5 or 45/15 revision rhythm. For one long block that counts up, open the focus timer.

How it works

  1. Choose a task to focus on
  2. Start the 25-minute timer and work until it rings
  3. Take a 5-minute break
  4. After 4 pomodoros, take a longer 15-minute break
  5. Repeat until your work is complete

Why the sound helps

Rain and brown noise mask office and household noise. Lo-fi gives a slow, warm chord loop with vinyl crackle and no lyrics. The deep focus pad has no rhythm at all — nothing in it can pull your attention. Each sound paints its own scene behind the timer.

Everything is synthesised in your browser, so it works offline and never loops audibly. It fades out at the end of a phase, so you always hear the gentle chime.

Pomodoro timer FAQ

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-start next phase to begin each next work or break phase, or open Fullscreen to hide everything but the scene and the time. Daily and total completed-session counts are stored locally.
