Focus Mode Timer FAQ

Frequently asked questions about focus and deep work

How long should my focus sessions be?

Start with 25-minute sessions and gradually increase to 45-90 minutes as your focus improves. The key is finding your optimal duration where you can maintain deep concentration without mental fatigue.

What are the best ambient sounds for focus?

Natural sounds like rain, ocean waves, or forest sounds work well for most people. White noise and instrumental music can also be effective. Experiment to find what works best for your concentration.

How can I block distracting websites?

Use browser extensions like StayFocusd, Cold Turkey, or Freedom to block distracting websites. You can also use your router's parental controls or modify your hosts file for system-wide blocking.

What should I do during breaks?

Use breaks to rest your mind and body. Stand up, stretch, take a short walk, or do breathing exercises. Avoid checking social media or emails as these can be mentally taxing. The goal is to recharge for the next focus session.
