Key Benefits
How It Works
Set your focus time
Choose your preferred work interval — the classic Pomodoro is 25 minutes, but you can customize to suit your concentration span.
Start your session
Hit start and dive into focused study. The timer runs in the background while you work through quizzes or revision.
Take scheduled breaks
When the timer ends, take a short break. Every 4 sessions, enjoy a longer break to recharge.
Track your progress
See your daily focus time, build streaks, and watch your productivity improve over time.
The Science of Focus
Ultradian Rhythms
Your brain naturally cycles through periods of high and low alertness every 90-120 minutes. The Pomodoro technique works with these rhythms, not against them.
Attention Fatigue
Sustained attention depletes mental resources. Regular breaks restore focus and prevent the diminishing returns of marathon study sessions.
Goal Gradient Effect
Motivation increases as you approach a goal. Short, defined work periods keep you consistently close to completion, maintaining high motivation throughout.
Diffuse Mode Thinking
Breaks allow your brain to process information in "diffuse mode" — making connections and consolidating learning that focused mode can't achieve.
Flexible Timer Options
