Online Timer, Stopwatch & Pomodoro Tool
Our Countdown Timer tool combines three essential time-tracking utilities in one convenient place. The Countdown Timer lets you set hours, minutes, and seconds with quick presets for common durations. The Stopwatch offers precise time measurement with lap time recording, perfect for sports, cooking, or any timed activity. The Pomodoro Timer helps boost productivity using the proven Pomodoro Technique — alternating focused work sessions with short breaks.
The Pomodoro Technique
The Pomodoro Technique, developed by Francesco Cirillo in the 1980s, involves working in 25-minute focused sessions (called "Pomodoros") followed by a 5-minute break. After completing four Pomodoros, you take a longer 15–30 minute break. This technique has been shown to improve focus, reduce mental fatigue, and help manage distractions. Our Pomodoro timer guides you through this cycle automatically with customizable session lengths.
Tab Notifications
The browser will show an alert and play a sound notification when the countdown or Pomodoro session completes, so you don't need to keep watching the screen. The alert ensures you never miss when your timer is done, even if you've switched to another browser tab.
