FAQs
- What is the Pomodoro Technique?
- The Pomodoro Technique is a time-management method developed by Francesco Cirillo: work for 25 minutes ("one pomodoro"), take a 5-minute break, repeat 4 times, then take a longer 15–30 minute break. The short focused intervals reduce mental fatigue while the regular breaks restore attention.
- How long is a Pomodoro session?
- A standard Pomodoro is 25 minutes of work followed by a 5-minute break. After four Pomodoros, take a 15–30 minute long break. EasyTimer.app ships these defaults out of the box and lets you customise every duration in settings.
- Can I change the focus and break durations?
- Yes. Open settings to customise focus duration, short break, long break, and the long-break interval (how many focus sessions before the long break). Your settings are saved automatically in the URL — bookmark the page to keep them.
- Is there a sound when the timer ends?
- Yes, a chime plays at the end of each focus session and break. You can disable sounds in settings.
- Can I use this on OBS for a focus stream?
- Yes. Enable transparent background in settings and paste the URL as an OBS browser source. The Pomodoro timer displays the current mode (focus / short break / long break) as an overlay.
