Focus Timer

Boost your productivity with a versatile timer featuring Stopwatch, Pomodoro, and Countdown modes. Designed for precision and ease of use, the Focus Timer helps you manage your time effectively, whether you're tracking tasks, following a study technique, or setting a simple reminder.

🚀 Why Use Focus Timer?

Focus Timer is a multi-functional utility built to cater to various time-management needs. Whether you need the high-resolution tracking of a stopwatch or the structured intervals of the Pomodoro technique, this tool provides a clean, distraction-free environment.

Key Benefits

  • Three-in-One Utility: Switch seamlessly between Stopwatch, Pomodoro, and Countdown modes.
  • Highly Customizable: Tailor Pomodoro intervals and cycle counts to fit your personal workflow.
  • Precise Tracking: Uses system-time calculations (Date.now()) to ensure accuracy and prevent timer drift.
  • Privacy-First: All timing logic runs locally in your browser; no data is sent to any server.

🛠️ Key Features

1. Stopwatch Mode

  • High Precision: Tracks time down to centiseconds (1/100th of a second).
  • Lap Timing: Record multiple laps while the timer is running to track split times. Laps are displayed in a scrollable list.
  • Dynamic Display: Automatically adjusts from MM:SS.CS to HH:MM:SS.CS for sessions exceeding one hour.

2. Pomodoro Mode

  • Structured Focus: Cycles through Work, Short Break, and Long Break phases.
  • Manual Phase Control: Each phase must be started manually after the previous one ends, allowing you to take a moment between intervals.
  • Custom Intervals: Set your own durations (in minutes) for work and break periods.
  • Cycle Management: Define how many work sessions to complete before taking a long break (default is 4).
  • Phase Skipping: Quickly move to the next phase if you finish early or need to adjust.
  • Audio Alerts: A notification sound plays at the end of each phase.

3. Countdown Mode

  • Flexible Input: Set durations using HH, MM, and SS fields, supporting up to 99 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds.
  • Pause & Resume: Easily interrupt and continue your countdown without losing progress.
  • Completion Alert: Plays a notification sound when the timer reaches zero.
