How does the timer work?

Vunolin's timer is a simple tool that helps you stay focused while you study, and it works in two modes.

Two modes:

• Pomodoro: it runs a focus period, then gives you a short break; this cycle keeps your attention fresh over a long stretch.
• Stopwatch: it counts elapsed time upward; ideal when you want to freely measure how long you've studied.

How Pomodoro works:

• It starts with a default 25 minutes of focus + 5 minutes of break; if you like, you can pick one of the 50/10 or 90/20 presets or set the durations yourself.
• When the focus period ends, a break screen covers the display and invites you to take a short breather; when the break is over, you return to focus.

Where to open it:

• Open the Timer section on your dashboard, choose the Pomodoro or Stopwatch tab, and start.

Keep in mind:

• Your timer keeps running even if you leave the page or refresh it; when you come back, you find it right where you left off.
