A time management method where you work in focused 25-minute sessions (called
"pomodoros") followed by short breaks. After 4 pomodoros, take a longer break.
What are Playlists?
Playlists are pre-made session sequences that automatically progress through focus
and break periods. Choose from options like Classic Pomodoro, Deep Work, Quick Sprint, and more. Toggle
between "Quick Start" and "Playlists" above the timer.
What are the timer modes?
Focus 25 - Standard 25-minute focus session Custom - Set your own duration in settings Break - Short 5-minute break Long Break - Longer 15-minute break after 4 focus sessions
How do tasks work?
Add tasks you want to work on. Click a task to make it your active focus. When you
complete a Focus 25 or Custom session, the time is tracked on your active task.
What do the dots mean on tasks?
Each filled dot represents one completed pomodoro/focus session for that task. The
time shown (e.g., "45m") is the total focus time spent.
Do I need to create tasks?
No! Tasks are optional. You can use Timer.Study as a simple timer without adding any
tasks.

How do notifications work?
Timer.Study can notify you when a timer completes. You'll hear a sound (can be
toggled in settings) and receive a browser notification if permitted. Click "Start" to be prompted for
notification permission.
Is my data saved?
Yes, everything is saved in your browser's local storage. Your tasks, settings, and
stats persist between sessions. Stats reset daily at midnight.
Note: Clearing
your browser data will erase all your Timer.Study data including tasks and settings.
