25 minute timer

Twenty-five minutes is one Pomodoro: a single block of focused work before a short break. Start it with one click and put your phone away.

Short answer

Press Start and this 25 minute timer counts down one Pomodoro, then plays a soft chime. Take a 5 minute break and go again. Space pauses, R resets and F goes full screen. Free, in your browser.

What it's good for

What 25 minutes is good for.

  • The Pomodoro technique

    Work on one task for 25 minutes, break for 5, and take a longer break after four rounds. Francesco Cirillo named it after his tomato-shaped kitchen timer.

  • 25 minute meetings

    Book 25 minutes instead of 30 and people get a few minutes to breathe before their next call.

  • Writing sessions

    One Pomodoro is about right for a first draft of an email, a section of a report or an article's opening.

25 minute timer questions

How do I start a 25 minute timer?

Press Start, or the space bar. The 25 minutes count down in big digits and the time left shows in your browser tab, so you can switch to other work and still see it.

How does the Pomodoro technique work?

Pick a task, work on it for 25 minutes without switching, then take a 5 minute break. After four rounds, take a longer break of 15 to 30 minutes. This page times the 25; the 5 minute timer times the break.

Does the 25 minute timer make a sound?

Yes, a soft two-note chime at zero, made in your browser without any audio files. Turn it off with the bell button. It still chimes on time in a background tab, because the sound is scheduled when you press Start.

Can I show it full screen?

Yes. Press F or the full screen button and the digits fill the screen, big enough for a whole room. Escape takes you back.

Do I need to sign up or install anything?

No. The timer is free and runs in your browser on a laptop, tablet or phone. No account, no email, no download.
