What 45 minutes is good for
Many school lessons run for about 45 minutes, so it's a length a lot of us already know how to sit through. It suits reading, revision, a first draft, or any task that needs you to hold a few things in your head.
A simple study rhythm
Work for 45 minutes, then rest for 15, and you have one tidy block every hour. Put your phone out of reach before you press Start. In the break, get up and move, rather than swapping the book for a screen.
Frequently asked questions
How long a break should I take after 45 minutes?
Ten to fifteen minutes works for most people. It keeps your day on a simple hourly rhythm.
Can I see the time from another tab?
Yes. While the timer runs, the time left shows in the tab's title.
Does the timer save my sessions?
No. Nothing is stored here. The Tasks 'n Timers app for iPhone keeps every session against the task you worked on.
