Focus Timer

What is Focus Timer?

Focus Timer is a minimalistic Chrome extension based on the Pomodoro technique. It helps you work in structured sessions with breaks in between to stay productive and avoid burnout.

How does the Pomodoro method work?

The method uses timed intervals — typically 25 minutes of focused work followed by a 5-minute break. After four sessions, you take a longer break. Focus Timer automates this cycle to help you stay in flow.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Focus Timer works entirely offline — no internet required. Everything runs locally in your browser.

Do you collect any personal data?

No. We don't track or store any personal information. The extension respects your privacy and keeps everything on your device.

Will I get notified when a session ends?

Yes. Focus Timer will notify you with browser notifications and sound alerts when your session or break ends. You can customize both notification types in the extension settings.

Can I customize timer durations?

Yes, you can adjust work time, break duration, and the number of sessions to match your personal workflow and preferences.

What is Floating Mode?

Floating Mode allows the timer to stay visible on top of any website, including video players. This ensures you can see your progress even while watching videos or browsing other content.

Does it support dark mode?

Yes. Focus Timer is designed primarily for dark mode to reduce eye strain and help you stay focused in low-light environments.
