Scroll slowly — every “quick thing” stays open.
01 / THE TASKONE TAB
OPEN THE RESEARCH.

One useful tab. One clear intention. This still feels manageable.

02 / THE DETOURQUICK REPLY
CHECK ONE MESSAGE.

It will only take a second. The original tab stays open underneath.

03 / THE PILE10 TABS
EVERYTHING MULTIPLIES.

Four threads. Three windows. Ten tabs that all still feel unfinished.

04 / THE COSTLOST CONTEXT
WHAT WAS I DOING?

The task is still open. The mental thread that made it easy is gone.

Name the one result you want from this session. POMODORO keeps only the tabs required for that outcome inside the protected window.

ESCAPE ROUTES.

THE MOMENT YOU PRESS START

Chosen sites, new windows, and noisy alerts are unavailable. Every detour attempt becomes a quiet return to the task you selected.

FINISH, THEN
RELEASE.

WHEN THE PROTECTED WINDOW ENDS

Access returns automatically. See what was blocked, record what moved forward, then step away for a deliberate reset before the next lock.

BEFORE YOU BLOCK

ANSWERS
WHAT EXACTLY DOES POMODORO BLOCK? +
You choose distracting sites, categories, alerts, and whether new windows are allowed. Tabs required for your stated task stay available; everything else receives a quiet return-to-task screen until the lock ends.
WHAT IF I GENUINELY NEED A BLOCKED SITE? +
You stay in control. An emergency exit is always available, but it adds a short pause and asks for a reason before access returns—enough friction to separate a real need from a reflex.
DOES THE BLOCKER READ WHAT IS INSIDE MY TABS? +
No. Blocking rules only need the site address and your chosen session settings. Page contents are not used to build the blocklist, and session history can remain on your device.
CAN I CHOOSE A DIFFERENT LOCK LENGTH? +
Yes. Start with 25/5, use 15/5 when beginning feels hard, or choose 50/10 for deeper work. The protection is the same; only the length of the focus window changes.
