Study Timers & Pomodoro Music: Find Your Perfect Focus Session
Need to study, work, write, create — or simply get something finished without checking the clock every five minutes?
Â
A study timer is a simple way to give your work some structure. Choose how long you want to concentrate, start the timer, and focus on one task until the session ends.You may also know this approach as the Pomodoro Technique.
One of the best-known versions uses 25 minutes of focused work followed by a 5-minute break (25/5), but there's no reason every focus session has to be the same length. Some people prefer 30 minutes, others work better with a 50/10 timer, while longer two- or three-hour Pomodoro sessions can be useful for serious study and deep work. The collection below gives you plenty of choice, from a quick 18-minute lo-fi study session and 30-minute music timers to 2-hour and 3-hour Pomodoro timers for deep focus.

18-Minute Lo-fi Study Music
Choose Your Time, Music — and View
Focus isn't only about how long you work. The right background can make a difference too.
Some of these timers combine original music with beautiful changing pictures and scenery. They're ideal when you're doing something where you can occasionally look up and enjoy the view — perhaps cooking, exercising, working on a hobby or doing jobs around the house.
Others are deliberately designed with minimal visual distractions. If you're studying, reading, writing, coding or doing other work that demands concentration, you may prefer to leave the timer quietly running in the background and let the music accompany you while you work.
And study music doesn't always have to be slow and sleepy. You'll find lo-fi beats and deep-focus music, but also more colourful and upbeat choices such as Beautiful India, Surf & Sitars and Sax in the City.
There isn't one perfect study timer for everybody.
Choose the length, choose the music, choose the view — then press play and get started.
