Minidoro
Minidoro is a minimalist Pomodoro® Technique timer helping to get things done.
Note: Minidoro requires the “Audio” permission for playing sounds when intervals are started and finished.
How it works
The Pomodoro® Technique is an extremely simple but efficient time management technique developed by Francesco Cirillo.
The basic idea is it’s simpler to concentrate on work for a relatively short period, keeping in mind you can take a rest or switch to another activity afterwards.
- Split your work for 25 minute intervals, separated by short break periods.
- In these 25 minute intervals try to focus on your work as much as possible, try to not distract yourself and to avoid other distractions.
- After a 25 minute interval take a 5 minute break. During this break do any other activities except for the previous work.
- Return to the work after the break.
- Take a long break of about 10–30 minutes after every 4 work intervals.
Counters
There are two counters at the bottom of the main page. They can be used to count anything. For example, you can count external interruptions with the left counter, while counting internal interruptions (you interrupting yourself) with the right counter.
