Common questions

Why 25 minutes?

Short enough that starting feels easy, long enough to get into the work. If 25 feels too short once you are going, try Deep work at 50 minutes.

Does my streak sync across devices?

No. Your sessions and streak are stored in this browser only, which means there is no account and nothing is sent anywhere. Clearing your browser data will reset it.

Does the timer keep running if I switch tabs?

Yes. The timer tracks real clock time, so it stays accurate even when the tab is in the background or your screen is off.

Should I skip the breaks?

Skipping breaks is the quickest way to burn out mid-session. The break is what makes the next focus block work.
