Never Forget to Take a Break Again

Long stretches at a desk are tiring for your eyes, back and brain. This break timer runs a continuous loop: it counts down your work block, chimes when it is time to step away, times your break, then starts the next work block automatically — all day long.

Pick a rhythm that suits you: the 20/1 eye-break preset for screen-heavy days, 25/5 for classic Pomodoro, 50/10 for steady office work or 90/15 for deep-work blocks. You can also type any custom work and break length.

How to Use the Break Timer

Choose a preset — Eye break 20/1, Short 25/5, Standard 50/10 or Long 90/15 — or type your own work and break minutes.

2

Press Start. The Work phase counts down while you focus.

3

When the chime sounds, the Break phase begins — stand up, stretch and rest your eyes.

4

The loop repeats automatically and counts your breaks. Press Pause to stop or Reset to start over.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the 20/1 eye break preset?

It reminds you to pause every 20 minutes for a one-minute break. Use the minute to look at something far away and let your eye muscles relax — helpful on screen-heavy days.

Does the break timer keep running after a break?

Yes. It loops work → break → work indefinitely and shows how many breaks you have taken, until you pause or reset it.

Can I set my own work and break lengths?

Yes. Enter any work length from 1 to 240 minutes and any break length from 1 to 120 minutes.

Will I hear the reminder if the tab is in the background?

Yes. The timer uses the real clock and plays a chime at each phase change even when the tab is hidden. Keep your device volume on.
