Question 1

What is the Pomodoro technique?

Accepted Answer

The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method based on 25-minute stretches of focused work broken by five-minute breaks. Longer breaks, typically 15 to 30 minutes, are taken after four consecutive work intervals.

Question 2

Does this timer sound an alarm?

Accepted Answer

Yes, a short audio chime plays whenever a timer finishes to alert you to switch contexts.

Question 3

Why do browsers sometimes stop the timer?

Accepted Answer

Modern web browsers pause background tabs to save battery. We calculate time using timestamps, meaning even if the browser pauses the visual tick, the underlying math will immediately catch up perfectly as soon as you refocus the tab.
