    Where to put a Pomodoro timer in Notion

    The widget reads the size Notion gives it and picks a layout to match, so the same link works on a big dashboard and in a narrow column.

    Go PomoTimer Notion widget, full layout: Focus, Short break and Long break tabs, a 25:00 countdown circle and a Start button

    A study dashboard

    Give it a wide block at the top of your study planner, above your subjects or revision schedule. At this size you get the Focus, Short break and Long break tabs, the session count and a skip button.

    A side column

    Notion columns are narrow, so the timer switches to a compact layout with just the time and the play and skip buttons. Put your to-do list or reading notes in the column next to it.

    A daily page or work dashboard

    Make the embed short and wide across the top of the page and it becomes a one-line bar. It keeps the time in view without pushing your notes down.

    How the widget times your sessions

    Press Start for 25 minutes of focus. When it ends, a chime plays and a 5-minute short break begins. After every fourth focus session you get a 15-minute long break instead. Skip moves to the next step, and reset starts the current one again.

    The countdown follows the real clock, so it stays right while you scroll or switch tabs. It also remembers where it was if you reload the page in the same browser. Everything runs in your browser: the widget sets no cookies, needs no account and cannot read anything in your Notion workspace.

    FAQ

    Notion widget questions, answered

    Is the Notion Pomodoro widget free?

    Yes. The widget is free, has no ads and needs no account.

    Can the widget see my Notion page?

    No. Notion only shows the timer inside a box. Your browser keeps the two apart, so the widget cannot read your notes, tasks or workspace, and you never connect your Notion account.

    Does it keep time if I scroll away or switch tabs?

    Yes. The countdown follows the real clock, and it remembers where it was if you reload the page in the same browser.

    Why is there no sound sometimes?

    Browsers only allow sound after you click inside the widget. Press Start once and the end-of-session chime will play.

    Do widget sessions count toward my stats and the leaderboard?

    Not yet. The widget works without signing in. For stats, streaks and the leaderboard, open the full timer at gopomotimer.io with a free account.

    Can I change the focus and break lengths?

    Not in the widget yet. It follows the classic rhythm: 25 minutes of focus, a 5-minute short break, and a 15-minute long break after every fourth session. If you need other lengths, the full timer at gopomotimer.io lets you set anything from 1 to 300 minutes.

    Does it work in the Notion mobile app?

    Notion's iPhone and Android apps generally show embeds while you are online. On mobile the embed takes the width of the page and cannot be resized. The timer runs as usual, but phones pause web pages while the screen is locked, so the chime cannot play until you unlock.

    How do I resize or move the widget?

    On a computer, drag the corner or the side of the embed to change its size, and the timer switches to the layout that fits. To move it, drag the handle (the six dots) on the left of the block, for example into a side column.

    Which themes are there, and is there a dark one?

    There are four: Vibrant Energy (orange), Midnight Focus (dark, purple), Cozy Coffeehouse (warm brown) and Nature Calm (green). Midnight Focus is the one to use with Notion dark mode. Each theme has its own link, so pick it on this page before you copy.

    Ready to focus in Notion?

    Pick a theme, copy the link, and your timer sits right next to your notes.
