Pomodoro Timer runs focus and break intervals in the browser when you want a simple countdown without installing another app.
Set focus minutes and break minutes, start a focus block, then reset when you abandon a session or change lengths.
Keep the tab open while the timer runs. Some browsers block sound until you interact with the page at least once.
