How to study with the Pomodoro technique

Pick one task, start a block and work only on that until the chime. Then take the break for real: stand up, drink water, no phone scrolling. After four focus blocks, take a longer break of 15 to 30 minutes.

The point isn't the exact number of minutes. It's that a clear, short block makes starting easy, and starting is the hardest part of studying.

Make every session count

Know what each session is for before you press start. A study schedule tells you what to study each day, and an exam countdown keeps the date in front of you.

Questions
What is the Pomodoro technique?+

You study in focused blocks (classically 25 minutes) with short breaks in between (5 minutes). After four blocks, take a longer break. Short, timed blocks make it easier to start and to stay focused.

Is 25/5 or 50/10 better for studying?+

25/5 is great for starting and for tiring subjects. 50/10 suits deep work like problem sets or writing once you're warmed up. 90/20 fits long revision sessions. Try one and adjust.

Does the timer keep running if I switch tabs?+

Yes. It runs on the real clock, so it stays right even if the tab sleeps, and the tab title shows the time left. A soft chime plays when each block ends.

Can I track my study hours?+

This page counts sessions and minutes while it's open. In HabitsIA, every focus session is saved and adds up toward each exam's study plan, for free.
