How it works

  1. Set your desired work interval (default 25 minutes) and break duration (default 5 minutes).
  2. Click "Start" to begin the countdown timer.
  3. When the work interval ends, an audible beep plays and a browser notification fires.
  4. The timer automatically switches to the break countdown.
  5. When the break ends, another beep signals that it's time to get back to work.
  6. Completed cycles are tallied in the session stats panel.
