Focus timer

Focus, then breathe.

Pick one thing. Give it 25 minutes, or 50 when it needs depth. When the time is up, I offer you two minutes to breathe before the next round, instead of the phone. Take them, or skip them. Your call, every time.

Runs only in this open tab. No sign-up, no stats, no streaks. A soft chime when the time is up.

Why a breath, not the phone

A scroll is not a break. It keeps your mind busy, so you start the next block just as tired. Two minutes of breathing out longer than you breathe in lets your body come down from the focus, and you start again a little fresher. Feeling flat instead? The wake-up breath turns the volume back up.

  1. One thing. Close what you don't need for it. Just this one task until the chime.
  2. Then breathe. Two minutes, with a calm voice or in silence. Or skip.
  3. Again, or done. Another round, or call it a day. No counting.

A focus block, in your calendar.

Pick your moment, and your calendar reminds you. One tap opens the timer with your length.

Questions people ask

What is the Pomodoro technique?

You work on one thing for a set time, classically 25 minutes, then take a short break. Francesco Cirillo named it after his tomato-shaped kitchen timer. Many people use 50 minutes for deeper work.

Why a breathing break instead of my phone?

Scrolling keeps your mind busy, so the break doesn't feel like one. Two minutes of slow breathing with a long exhale lets you come down from the focus block and start the next one fresher.

Do I have to take the break?

No. When the time is up, the timer offers two minutes to breathe. Skip is just as big as Breathe. You decide.

Is it free? Do I need an account?

Free, no account, no sign-up. It runs in your open browser tab. Nothing is stored except the length you chose last time, on your own device.

Does it keep stats or streaks?

No. No counters, no streaks, no missed breaks. Just one block of focus at a time.
