Pomodoro with rounds and phases

I want to …

… work in Pomodoro mode, with work and break phases and visible rounds.

Before you start

  • Pomodoro sits next to Fixed on the timer screen.
  • Typical flow: work phase, short break, next round.

Here's how

  1. Open Timer and choose Pomodoro.
  2. Set the work and break durations in the fields below.
  3. Tap Start. The display switches to Work and Round 1.
  4. When the work phase ends, Zeitlicht moves to Break on its own.
  5. After the break the next round starts. The round number goes up.
  6. Skip jumps the current phase if you want to switch early.
  7. Pause, Resume, and Reset work as in fixed mode. Reset returns the current phase to the start.

The result

You see phase and round. The light column burns the current phase, not the whole day.

Common questions

Can I switch to Fixed in the middle of a break?

Yes. Changing mode ends the Pomodoro chain and sets a fixed duration.

Is there an automatic long break after four rounds?

No. Work and break alternate. For a long break, change the break duration yourself.
