Add a Pomodoro timer to Notion

The Pomodoro technique splits work into short focused sessions with breaks in between. This widget gives you that timer inside Notion, next to the tasks you are working on.

Set your focus time, short break, long break and the number of rounds before a long break. A soft sound tells you when time is up, and you can turn it off.

Place it on a study or work dashboard so the timer is always one click away.

Notion Pomodoro Timer Widget questions

Does the timer keep running if I switch tabs?

Yes. It counts from the clock, not from the screen, so it stays accurate while you work in another tab.

Can I turn off the sound?

Yes. Untick the sound option before you copy the link.

What is a good Pomodoro length?

The classic setting is 25 minutes of focus and 5 minutes of break, with a longer break after four rounds. Change the numbers above to fit how you work.

Can I change the break lengths?

Yes. Set focus, short break and long break minutes, and how many rounds come before the long break.
