25 Minute Pomodoro Timer

Twenty-five minutes is the original Pomodoro, and the red kitchen-timer dial is the tool it was named for. The coloured wedge shrinks as you work — one focused sprint before a well-earned break.

About the 25 Minute Pomodoro Timer

Twenty-five minutes is short enough to protect your focus and long enough to make it count — the shrinking red wedge is the cue that keeps you working until the break.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the 25 minute pomodoro timer keep accurate time in the background?

Yes. It counts down against the real clock rather than ticking in the tab, so your 25 minute pomodoro timer stays accurate even if you switch tabs or lock your screen — and the alarm still sounds at zero.

Can I change the duration, or switch away from the pomodoro clockface?

This page opens preset to 25 minutes on the Pomodoro clockface, but you can set any duration and switch to a different clockface at any time using the controls below the timer.
