About this tool

What is the Pomodoro Technique?

The Pomodoro Technique, created by Francesco Cirillo, breaks work into focused intervals, traditionally 25 minutes, separated by short breaks. After four intervals you take a longer break. The fixed time limit makes it easier to start difficult tasks and to resist checking messages.

There is nothing magic about 25 minutes. Many people work better with 45 or 50-minute sessions for deep work. Adjust the settings to suit your attention span, and use the daily log to see how much focused time you actually achieved.
