The routine
- Study45:00
- Break10:00
Loops automatically until you stop it.
A study timer with the session lengths students actually use. It runs a study block, chimes, gives you a break, and loops — so you settle into the work and let the timer handle the breaks. No account, no ticking, just a quiet draining ring.
Which session?
- 20/5 — a short sprint for flashcards, vocab, and memorization, where focus fades quickly.
- 45/10 — a classroom-length block for essays, reading, and problem sets. The friendly default.
- 60/15 — a full hour for subjects that take a while to get into, with a real break.
How to use it
- Pick a session length above and choose one subject.
- Hit Start and study until the “Study” block chimes.
- Take the “Break” — stand up and rest your eyes, then it loops back.
- Stop whenever you’ve covered what you planned.

FAQ
How long should I study before a break?
It depends on the work. Short 15–20 minute sprints suit memorization and flashcards, where attention fades fast; 30–60 minute sessions suit essays, reading, and problem sets that take a while to warm up. This timer offers 20/5, 45/10 and 60/15 — tap one and it handles the breaks for you.
What makes this good for studying?
Focus and break steps auto-advance and loop, so you never stop to reset a clock, and the final-seconds ticking is off by default so nothing distracts you mid-thought. The big draining ring shows time left at a glance without you watching digits.
