FAQ

What is the Pomodoro Technique?
Focus for 25 minutes, then rest for 5. After four cycles, take a longer 15-minute break. Pomo Clock lets you customise focus, short break and long break durations down to the minute.
How does an aesthetic clock help me focus?
What's in your visual field shapes how you think. Pomo Clock's calm palette and minimalist display act like Mac's Standby — turning your screen into 'focus mode' rather than another tab competing for attention.
Is it really completely free?
Yes — every feature is free, and there are no ads. We run it as part of Mihata's content marketing.
Do I need an account?
No login required. Open the page in any browser and you're ready. Settings are saved only to your browser's local storage; nothing is sent to a server.
Does it work without an always-on display?
Yes. Just leave this page open while your phone or laptop charges. Even devices without an always-on display feature can use Pomo Clock as an aesthetic standby. Add it to your home screen (PWA) for the best experience.
Does the Pomodoro keep running when the tab is in the background?
Yes — a Web Worker keeps the timer accurate even with the tab hidden. When a session finishes, you get a browser notification (permission required) and an audio chime.
Where are my settings saved?
Only in your browser's local storage and IndexedDB (for uploaded images). Nothing ever reaches Mihata's servers.
Which devices does it work on? Does it support iPhone, iPad, Mac, PC, and Android?
Yes — Pomo Clock runs on any device with a modern browser, including iPhone, iPad, Mac, Windows PC, Android, and Chromebook. No installation required; just open the page and start using it.
Can I reuse an old iPad or smartphone as a desk clock or sleep clock?
Yes. Open Pomo Clock in your browser, disable the screen auto-lock, and add it to your home screen (PWA). You can repurpose an unused old iPad, iPhone, or Android as an aesthetic desk clock, sleep clock, or standby screen on a charging dock.
Is there work BGM or focus music?
Yes — Pomo Clock includes work BGM and ambient sounds curated for focus. Combine them with the Pomodoro timer to set up a calm focus environment for studying, remote work, and concentrated tasks.
Can I use it for studying or exam prep?
Yes. Combine the 25-minute focus / 5-minute break Pomodoro timer with focus BGM and a calm aesthetic background to build a focused environment for studying, exam prep, and remote work. It also works well as a desktop study timer on your phone or tablet.
